Questions & Answers

ours is going to be a surprise too!! and we are so excited about it. makes the big day that much more wonderful! we've got alot of gender neutral clothing but also a few really girly outfits and a few boy outfits.... afterall, its not hard to exchange it afterwards

We decided to not find out the gender of our baby, firstly because we wanted to have a little more excitement and keep everyone on their toes, secondly because we wanted to get all gender neutral stuff for the baby so we can reuse for baby #2, and thirdly because as long as it comes out healthy, it doesn't really matter what the gender is :) It has been such a fun pregnancy and people are constantly looking at my belly or looking at the ultrasound pics and changing their minds on what they think the gender is... :)

We are! and we're having NO problems doing so! I know some people think it must be really hard... or they can't imagine the will power it must take, or the patience... but it really hasn't been a struggle for us. I got all my hats, pants, onsies, jammies etc. in nice neutrals like white, cream, brown, teal, red, yellow, mint. I've got a nice collection of clothes :)

This is my first and we are not finding out the gender. It's actually really easy because for us we had it in our minds from day one that we were going to wait.
Other people really want to know what our baby is, but they'll find out soon enough (:
The one and only thing I don't like is seeing cute gender specific things, and not getting them.

My hubby & I found out the previous couple times & this time we are going to find out as well. We've found that for us it doesn't take away from the moment & it doesn't make it less special. Rather, it helps to be more prepared instead of just buying all of baby's clothes in a neutral colour. It also makes it easier when we get good deals on clothing during the pregnancy & makes our decision whether to get it or not easier. We choose our baby's name before they were born, but my hubby & I deliberately kept the names to ourselves & didn't tell anyone until after baby was born, then we announced the baby's arrival, name, weight etc... For us even though we knew the baby's gender on the day, the moment of baby's arrival, hearing baby's 1st cry, meeting baby & getting to know & taking care of baby was just as special, filled with so many special moments & memories & lots to give God thanks for. The only difference was that we knew baby's gende

I'm from India n v follow strict culture rules out here. v don't buy any clothes or any stuffs for the baby unless and until baby is born..v believe its not good for the baby to get the things already..n v dont ve this neutral colour thing...v dont follow any of these colours. wat ever colour v like v buy for the baby after the delivery. naming the baby!!! there is plenty of time after the delivery.. so knowing the gender is not so important for us..indeed special and surprise is different..every baby is special n unique...to know gender or not is a personal choice. i personally believe in not knowing the gender. It gives me a extra thrill and kick in not knowing the gender n one more thing v don't ve baby shower. since v don't like to get gifts before baby is born n it considered as a bad omen. instead v ve a small function in tat my parents will come take me to their home. i stay there until delivery. :) :) Totally different culture i must say....
