Wink Sex, sex, and more sex

We're expecting a baby this May, and we've begun to debate whether we should ask the ultrasound technician to keep the baby's sex a surprise. The first ultrasound when the sex is discernable is in just a couple weeks.

We've found out early with our other children, but I think there might be something to the experience we've been missing by depriving ourselves of the suspense and surprise.

When I found out my 2 children we going to be boys.

I stopped talking to my wifes' belly in baby talk.

I wanted them to know your Dad is here and ready to take you on!

One on one in Baseball/Nintendo/basketball/football.

I'm not sure what I would have done; it was not an option in the 70's.

It may be an advantage to know in advance. We were renters at the births of all 3 children;therefore, no nursery colors or decor, how did they survive?
3 different cities, doctors etc > and since most churches only give a shower for the 1st baby or a newcomer....I had 3 baby showers!!!
