Should we or should we not find out the gender of our baby?
That is the central discussion we are having these days. We are just about a month away from the ultrasound and we are still baffled by what we should do.
There are pros and cons to both sides.
PRO: We can call the baby by the name we have picked out.
CON: We may begin to think of more names and have trouble picking one.
PRO: We can start planning the nursery and what to buy.
CON: We will want to buy instead of save money.
PRO: We can tell everyone what we are having.
CON: We won't be surprised the day of delivery.
PRO: We can stop calling the baby "it."
CON: We will have an entire lifetime to know what they kid is going to be.
For every point, there is an opposite answer. Like Taylor says, we will probably decide the day of the ultrasound. And, knowing our track record, we will probably end up finding out if we do it that way.

Find out! I see the pros outweighing the cons so far. but i would want to know just because i'm impatient...not for practical reasons that you have.
I say only good reason to not find out is so that you can experience one of very few surprises in life... that's about it. but then you can be surprised at the ultrasound.
Believe me... you are going to get sick of buying/getting yellow and green stuff...
I've heard that it's quite an experience when you first see your baby. Of course for me, I was way too tired and drugged up to enjoy it - sigh!
Once I did come around (after a few days) then it was quite amazing. Each day afterwards and since has been awesome.
We don't regret finding out all and it was so much fun to buy stuff for him.
