ya i have my scan set for march 3rd and at that point i will be 15 weeks 1 day so it'll be good to see the baby then they usually do one at 12 weeks but they are short of doctors up here but i dont mind the wait it just makes it that much more special when i get to see bean

I dont no if i will be ableto restrain my self either if they ask me if i wana no the sex of the baby but i will have to because OH doesnt want to know what the sex of the baby is and i dont either not until its time But i still would really like to know what we are having so we could go and pick out little blue things or little pink things

I hope so that blanket will be really special because my grandma made it

What do u want a boy or agirl?

i guess i lucked out that my OH wants to know the sex this time. i think it would have turned out badly if i wanted to know and he didnt. lol. im sure i would have thought they could tell just me and i could keep it a secret...but i know that wouldnt actually work! so luckily we both decided we wanted to find out! OH didn't find out last time because his ex didnt want to, but this time he wants to know.

first and foremost, i just want a healthy baby. i wont be upset by not having the gender "i want" or anything like that. i just want a baby mostly. but i would love to have a girl. there is already my stepson and so we are doing all of the fun "boy" stuff with him, but ultimately i would like to buy some dresses and ribbons. my husband is certain its a boy. his greatgrandfather, grandfather, and father only had boys...so he is set on the fact that he can only have boys. i think that is silly. he obviously has the chromosome to have girls, but he just wont accept that as a possibility. lol

i also really want a girl because we have good ideas for girl names, but are struggling agreeing on boy ones. so having a girl would avoid having long discussions over names

haha ya you did luck out for sure i dont think i could keep it a secret if i found out the sex and OH didnt i would blabb it and then i would feel bad as he doesnt want to know. but it is our first so it will be good for a surprise when we have our second we may find out but thats a long time away im just happy that im pregnant right now

Im like you i just want it to be happy and healthy thats all that matters to me. But I do really want a boy because i grew up with having a sister. OH he has the same oppinion as your DH he says that as most of his side of the family is all boys that he is only capable of making boys and wont see the fact that there is a 50, 50 chance that it will be a girl hehe.

We have names picked out for both boy and girl we've had them picked out for a while, so there will be no fighting on names there we have both agreed on some pretty good names we think any way

humm that post posted twice

i dont get guys sometimes. its a fact that there is a 50% chance of a boy and a 50% chance of a girl. but they refuse to believe it! i think part of it for my OH is that he wants more boys too...he thinks girls are too much stress later on, dealing with dating, pregnancy, and all that stuff. i think he is just silly.

we thought up a girls name easily and both love it, but the boys name we have three different first names we like, but cant pick which. and we cant think of good middle names for any of them! so i dont think we will fight over boys names...i just think it will take more work!

i just noticed youre at 10 weeks today! congrats! youre like 1/4 of the way to labor!

ya i no my OH is like ooh boys will be so much easier to have because they dont cry as much (ya right) and then when they get older theres make up and having to be the scary father so none of her bfs will want to come over and then what if she gets pregnant at being a teenager.. The way Guys think seriously lol. he keeps joking with me its goina be twin boys (because twins run in both of our families.. im like omg hahaha

Names are hard to think of because u want to pick a name for the baby that they will like and not be afraid to say that that is there name and all of that..

Thanks im so excited to be 10 weeks. that means only 5 weeks tell my scan

my DH is the exact same way when i say its gonna be a girl! he keeps saying theyre so much work and what if she gets pregnant and how are we gonna deal with boyfriends. and im thinking...um boys are work too and they could get a girl pregnant and theyll have girlfriends...so whats the difference!? haha. like you said, guy think so strangely

the whole name thing is very difficult. my husband is italian so he wants traditional italian names, which i respect. but we also have to make sure that they arent so obscure that theyre unpronouncable, or my parents feel shut out cause they arent itlian, or the kid get made fun of. theres a very fine line with traditional names i think. plus we want to integrate some family names, so that makes it more difficult. like the middle name lee is common in my family, but there isnt really an italian equivalent. causes more work trying to find the right name. but its fun at the same time!

5 more weeks til your scan! hooray! itll be here before ya know it!

ooh i no i tried explaining to OH that its goina be no deferant with a boy that they could also get a girl pregnant and stuff like that and he just kinda was like well its differant with a girl its like lol... he just been saying girls will be lots more work and all that..

With the middle names for our baby if its a boy the middle name is going to be after my grandfather who passed away when i was 10 and if its a girl the middle name with be after OH's Grandma that passed away when OH was 16, so the middle names have come pretty easy, but first names our minds may change when it gets closer and closer to the date we just have to make sure its the perfect one. I was joking with him that the baby will have my last name and he was like no im the father it will have my last name haha it was funny to see his reaction.

I know 5 weeks it seems so far away but it will be here before i know it im so excited

haha! i bet the last name thing definitely got a rise out of him! its always fun to mess around with them a bit.

thats very cool about the middle names youve chosen. thats always nice when you can have names with meaning like that. my DH mentioned naming the baby if its a boy after his greatgrandfather whom he absolutely adored. the name was pasquale. which i think is a very cool name, but he would like it for a first name and i said maybe a middle name would be better. im just scared that most people would pronounce it wrong since its italian and you have to pronounce the final "e" like a long "A"

i figure we have quite awhile yet to figure it out!

haha yep gotta keep them on there toes

i think that having an italian name would be cool in school the teachers and sub teachers will pernounce ever the simpilest names wrong, they prounounced my wrong too and mine is basic (shannon) and after the first time they meet him/her they will probably not get it wrong again it is very cool that your DH wants to stick to tradition and have an italian name. Maybe you guys could comprimise and do a name that means something to him and a name that means something to you

Yes you are right there is lots of time left yet to think up names
