This is a huge question I hear alot now that I am going through my first pregnancy. "Will you find out the baby's gender?" YESSSS IIIII DIDDD!!! It's a boy by the way.
This is a major thing to some tho.
So my question to you, Did you find out the gender when you were pregnant, was that an option when you were pregnant or if you are currently pregnant do you plan to find out?

Congrats on the new baby coming!We wanted to know the gender so we could tell everyone for the baby shower. It was funny when the nurse was trying to find out the gender. Our baby kept putting her hand between her legs and wouldnt move them for the ultrasound. She said that if the "private" area looks like a hamburger then its a girl. If it looks like a snapping turtle then its a boy. Finally she moved her hands and...
HAMBURGER!!!!!!! LOL

Its a crime in India... there a re some reasons for making it a crime and i support that... Gender is not important but the kid is important...

I respect your countries laws for sure. And I do also agree that gender is not important. While it is legal here in the US, most of us use it as a planning tool where we can purchase baby's needs prior to the birth. Thank you for your comments and your time :) I do appreciate them.

Congrats on your boy!
I did not want to find out. However, my husband and family did want to know.
I was insisting on now knowing.
But then that question comes during the ultrasound "do you want to know?"How can you say no???
I had a boy too 8 months ago. It is THE best!!!

I did not on my first child but i did on my second. sometimes it is easier to find out if you want so you know how to plan.

There are some tools available in the internet to find out the baby gender by calculating the mother's age and conception month. I normally try at http://www.indianbabycare.com/baby-gender-prediction/ it works for me.
