Ew, really? Oh, that's ummm .... cute? Gawd! Give me a break!<BR/><BR/>I have three girls, and the comments I get are from people with the typical "Perfect Family" asking if I'll try again to get "that" boy. What boy? I quite like my little family of husband, wife and three daughters. I think it's perfect the way it is, thank you very much.<BR/><BR/>Oh, I'm sorry, this is your blog/your moment, isn't it?

I sometimes wish that we'd gotten a 4D, but it was nice to leave some things up to surprise. (And by the time I decided I wanted one, I was 30 weeks and figured I could wait a little while longer.)<BR/><BR/>I can understand wanting to keep your name secret. We didn't, which was fine because our daughter's first name is pretty common (her nickname not as much) and didn't get any flack, but our friends would argue with us over what to use as her middle name. My husband's best friend and I got into a huge argument about it, and it really got me worked up. Not cool for a seven and a half months pregnant woman.Lindsayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06254892316444101203noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2770174239418463922.post-35898437538671766782008-08-26T18:29:00.000-04:002008-08-26T18:29:00.000-04:00Do what will Make you and your Husband Happy.

It is definitely a weird experience. I say if you want the first real look at the baby to be a surprise then don't do it. But if you want a sneak peak then go for it.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2770174239418463922.post-85464121137050614622008-08-26T13:54:00.000-04:002008-08-26T13:54:00.000-04:00We didn't even find out the sex with our two girls...We didn't even find out the sex with our two girls - never mind reveal our names.

And you'll never forget it.<BR/><BR/>As for ultrasound pics. We did the 3D (I don't know if it was the 4D or not), and they were really cool! You get a better idea of what the baby actually looks like...even though it may still look a little alien-ish. I would highly recommend doing it!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2770174239418463922.post-8656532164587727852008-08-26T08:58:00.000-04:002008-08-26T08:58:00.000-04:00We didn't know if we were having boy or girl, but ...We didn't know if we were having boy or girl, but we kept our name list under wraps.

Next time...<BR/><BR/>I did not get the 3D/4D. It was just a personal thing, I wanted to be surprised by how she looked. As it turns out, my husband was surprised much more than I was because Baby looks just like the postman.

Honestly, if I could go back and do it again, I would do it that way again. When #2 came, she was ALL surprises, and i liked that.

We didn't tell anyone our names that we had picked out... we had a girl name and a boy name because we didn't find out the gender ahead of time. <BR/><BR/>Honestly the reason I did that was because a friend of mine told me the name she picked out for her baby, and I had a real gut reaction to the name... I HATED it. But she LOVED it. I'm still hiding that reaction to the name she picked out. But it's her baby and my reaction doesn't matter. So I just decided I didn't want to put anyone in the position of having an opinion about my baby's name before he/she was born. Sorry, that's more complicated an explanation than I wanted. :-)Sydneyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17396011907508627172noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2770174239418463922.post-53168208345157037312008-08-25T22:16:00.000-04:002008-08-25T22:16:00.000-04:00I'm done with babies too so spill it (to me at lea...I'm done with babies too so spill it (to me at least)!! LOL<BR/><BR/>My OB was the best. Loved him! He gave me an ultrasound at every monthly appt. starting at my 4 month (with my last little one). He was even nice enough to do the 3D. I think it's an adorable<BR/>keepsake.
