My mood while writing this blog: not sure |
Well this is my seventh baby and I'm still excited.... This baby was planned and I am hoping for a girl.... But ladies I have this weird desire not to find out the sex at the U/S. I want a surprise and my husband has agreed to waiting to find out. But when my sister asked about the sex I told her we would like to be surprised she was affended... Is this how others will react. Its not like she was going to buy the baby anything she did not buy Blaze anything. Blaze was fine my hubby got everything she needs... anywho I want a surprise... Is family that selfish? Are friends?? and can I wait to be surprised

Wednesday, 16 Nov Our second was a surprise and everyone insisted that I knew the babies sex when I didnt and would get stupid response when I said I didnt know. I wouldnt be too offended. charlihadley -
Tuesday, 11 May If you want to be surprised....then let yourself be surprised....it's your baby your choice...but to get people to back off.....just tell people that he/she wouldn't open her/his legs...they looked & looked...we changed positions & looked some more...baby was just not cooperative today...hope that's not a sign of whats to come...but everything else is developing as it should...head, heart, lungs, kidneys, stomach... then laugh it off!! hahaha Carolinagirls -
Tuesday, 11 May Unfortunately, a lot of people are going to want to know why you want to wait! Even though it's none of their business and really has nothing to do with them. I thik you just saw the first of many reactions when you tell people you are not going to find out the sex. For some reason, it's "normal" to find out and since you aren't going to find out, I guess that means others are going to think you aren't normal!! Sorry but they are being a bit selfish, NOT YOU! Good luck breaking the news to everybody and prepare yourself for a few negative comments!! People can be insensitive sometimes!!! AllyCat62683 -
Tuesday, 11 May Not selfish at all. There is plenty of stuff out there that is unisex they could buy if they wanted to buy stuff. Plus the baby can still get gifts in accordance to their sex after they were born. That is pretty crazy that someone might take offense to that if you ask me. yazzmin-16yrsapart -
Tuesday, 11 May I was gearing towards being surprised also in the very beginning but now I'm curious. As far as family & friends...sometimes they make you feel like you're having their baby. The craziest thing I've heard so far was my boyfriend's mom ask if it's a girl can I add her name somewhere in there. I kinda laughed it off & I love her to death but her name is not something I want to name my child (even as a middle name). My own mother hasn't made a request like that & I think that would offend or hurt her feelings if I didn't think of her first. Plus, my baby will get his or her own name. SuperHeroMom -
Tuesday, 11 May Its your decision. Thier opinion doesn't matter. I was going to keep the sex a surprise and the family was fine with it but now I want to find out! jbare -
Tuesday, 11 May I have been amazed how people respond to my decisions while I am pregnant. I have had dumb responses too...and with the hormones it is hard not to take comments personal. I am trying to stay away from others with dumb comments.
