If I ever have kids, I don’t think I’ll find out the sex, at least not with the first one. That said, I want to point out that it IS possible to set up and decorate a nursery without knowing the gender of the baby.

All you have to do is simply paint or wallpaper the nursery in a gender neutral color or colors, and accesories with stuff in gender neutral colors. You can always embelish with gender specific stuff once the baby comes. I just don’t understand why so many people think that you need to know the gender of the baby in order to get the nursery ready.

We should just be concerned that the baby is healthy…

Just a little heads up. Cash Warren is a “celebrity baby” of sorts. His father is Michael Warren, who used to play on Hill Street Blues.

I’m SO sorry for your loss. I hope you have a perfect delivery with your lovely little daughter!

Best of luck to you and your family!

Also, my husband and I DEFINITELY want to know the sex! Neither of us have any patience when it comes to surprises, so that part was easy to decide!

My husband really wanted to find out but I did not. Needless to say, I won and we did not find out. But during the ultrasound I could have sworn i saw that it was a boy (although it might have been the cord).

So I waddled through my pregnancy and of course when you don’t know people want to tell you what you are having (it got pretty annoying at the end) but almost everyone guessed a boy.

A few weeks before delivery I found the cutiest dress ever and felt I was having a boy. Just because I liked the dress so much! I ended up having a boy . He is the cutiest thing ever!!!

I am kind of torn with our next one. Part of me still wants to wait it out because I wouldn’t mind having another boy but part of me wants to plan it out if it is a little girl! Guess i’ll cross that road when we get there

I also think that the sex of a child doesn’t really matter.
It is more important that it is a fruit of their love.

Me and my husband are waiting our first kid in the first week of March and he doesn’t want to know the sex.
At the last ultrasound the doctor told him “you can go now, your wife is dying to know the sex of your baby”.
It’s a girl and I’m the only one to know it!

ps: I’m sorry for my bad English…

Amelia I think the same thing, that cash and jessica are gonna find the sex out but jessica said no on an interview because she doesn’t want the public to know. As for finding out the sex, I need to know what I am having if it’s possible. I’m not a patient person, and how the baby looks and everything else is still gonna be a surprise to me, but I wanna get the room and everything set up and not just have to buy green or yellow. Also it seems more real to me, to know the baby’s sex.

When my fiance and I start a family in a few years, I’ll be wanting to know the sex ASAP so that I can start planning and buying bits and pieces… unisex things are fine, but if you have a girl you want her to have some pretty dresses and things, and for a boy, there are so many adorable outfits for little boys out there (I have to restrain myself now, because Murphy’s Law states that if I buy cute boy-clothes, I’ll have only daughters!).

What we’ll probably do is find out the sex, and then not tell anyone. We don’t plan to reveal the names of our children until after they are born (saves on the well-meaning family members trying to talk us out of whatever we’ve chosen, which is incredibly rude but bound to happen), and making the sex our little secret will make it even more exciting, I think!

We didn’t find out the first time, and it was hard. We had a lot of girly items such as clothes and bedding picked out, and a boys name. Luckily we had a girl, and my husband came up with the perfect name for her right when she was born.
The second time I really wanted to know, but my husband did it. We ended up having the tech wrap it up, and we put it in a jewelry box, wrapped it up, and opened it on Christmas Eve. It will always be the most memorable Christmas Present I have ever gotten. The delivery wasn’t as eventful as the first time, but it was still a blessed event.
This time we have already found out (I am now 17 weeks, we found out at 15) that we are having another girl. It is a very high-risk pregnancy, originally a multiple pregnancy, but we lost one of the babies. I really wanted to know, just in case anything happens, and they need to do a less than perfect delivery.
