Finding out the sex

Although mentioned in an earlier post I figured that finding out the sex of your lil buddy is probably deserving of its own post!

"Do you want to know the sex?" this question shouldn't be a question that takes you by surprise. I am going to tell you right that at your 19-22 week appointment they are going to ask you that exact question. So talk about it. Now the thing I want to stress is that just because I say talk about it doesn't mean that you have to decide it the first time you talk about. If anything you should take some time and talk it over a couple of times.

For myself and MW we always just assumed that we would find out. We did talk about it a couple of times and finally decided that we wanted to know what our baby would be. To us the technology was there, why not use it. I am not going to lie it was amazing to find out, but also be prepared for a bit of a let down. Going from two possibilities to one a little bit of disapointment is expected. That being said don't worry about it. Just because you are a bit sad that you don't have two possibilities doesn't mean you aren't super excited to have one definite! In our case its a boy!

The thing that I cannot stress enough is communication take the time to think things over by yourself and talk to your partner. Relax you have plenty of time to figure things out!
