Which do you prefer? Knowing the gender of your baby before birth? or keeping things a surprise? As for me, I would like to know the gender, so I can make the necessary preparations for the nursery, baby items, etc before the child is born. How about you?

I would like to know. Sine the technology is there, I think we might as well use it to our benefit, so that we can buy the right stuff. There's nothing wrong with that!

i wanted to know if i was having a boy or a girl but when i went for my scan my baby was moving everywhere and wouldn't keep still so they couldn't tell on what the baby was, so i had to wait until the end! now i always wanted a girl because i love going girly shoppping etc and my wish come true, i relly thought i was having a boy.. but i was wrong..hehe! :O)

The 1st I didn't want to know but my second I found out but didn't want to get my hopes up incase they were wrong... They weren't so that was o.k but it does help you get better prepared for their arrival.. Colors etc....

I wanted it to be a surprise, but at the last minute of the ultrasound she flipped over and spread her legs and it was really clear that she's a girl! My husband wanted to know.

as for me, i wanna know the gender of my baby before he/she will be born. i am not a mom yet and never pregnant, too. but if in case, i want to know the gender. it's better so i can prepare more on my baby's things before she/he comes out. i can buy and shop more, too plus i can already decorate her room depending on the gender.

I dont think its good to know the gender of ur Baby. After he/she is born, u can prepare wat could be common for both the genders. u have atleast 2 or 21/2 years to prepare for his/her education . I dont think that u should try any such thing. I would never try this out. I would wait for all those lovely months, for my baby to come in this World. As far I know, the ultraviolet rays effect the baby. I would suggest u again , Plz dont try this out.

same as you mogg20, i'd like to know the gender of my baby so i can prepare for it. do the shopping for his things as early as possible so that when he/she comes out of me, everything is prepared and doesn't need to worry.
