Needless to say, they opened it on the journey home
Might be worth a go
Ah, leave it to you to think of a fab idea!

Hope it works for you.

Me and the OH both want to find out. Hes the one thats doing all the reading to me and finding stuff out, he would want to know the sex right now if he could. But hes very impatient so its not a surprise.

so i put ann-marie's idea forward and he didn't say no.....which is a start! he seems to be warming to the idea that if i want to know then we can find out but he said to stop going on about it so my mouth has been tightyly shut!!mummy_channon he wouldn't let me just find out cuz he knows i wouldnt keep it a secret so it would be both of us or not!

Did you decide what to do?

I have a very stubborn hubby too so know what it's like - he desperately wants to find out and I'm quite happy to go along with that.

However, if I did have a strong opinion I definately wouldn't let him get all his own way - your view is just as important and he should respect this.

Hope you are able to find a solution you are both happy with.
