My DD was watching one of these and it made me cry! LOL. Anyone had one of these? Thought it was a cute, although very dramatic idea!

That is a cool idea! I would totally do that!! I wonder if they have the gender written in an envelope by the tech and give it to a bakery or what. Very cool!

Interesting that the mom getting a girl was super excited and the dad getting a boy was super excited!
I could never do that. Having a preference, I would not be good at faking if the baby wasn't the gender I wanted.
Cute idea though!

I would do it, but I'd have to know first. IF or should I say when (LOL) I get my DD I'd do it as long as I knew first!!

They had the tech write the gender down and put it in 2 envelopes. They give one to the bakery and one they keep so they have something to verify with when they cut the cake!

I thought so NBP. But I have to agree with you guys, I don't think I could handle it, or fake it if it wasn't the gender I want. Maybe let a close friend know the sex via an envelope (who knows about your gd) and leave it up to them if they do something like that (drops hints or show them videos lol).

Oh wow, those vids are so cool, i never heard of this either. I think it would be so awesome for first time parents, almost as exciting as waiting for the birth, but you get to celebrate with all your friends, and eat cake !

I watched a few others and some of them, you can see the parents to be shaking so bad they can't cut the cake! It's such a moment but most of the videos seemed to be first time parents.

That's cool but unfortunately I could never do it. I'd cut into a blue cake and just cry my eyes out.

If I had done this with DS2 I would have burst into tears and ruined the moment for everyone else. I had to find out on my own and have a private breakdown!

Wow! I 've never seen anything like that. I'm actually in tears here just looking at them so i know i just could'nt do it myself. It's a lovely idea though if you hadno preference.

I think this would have been fun for a first baby. But if you have really bad GD and several of that gender already and it's the gender you don't want it could make for a bad moment.
I may do a gender reveal party for my MIL if it is a girl... But I would want to know the gender first! We would be getting a gender scan right before DH's birthday and Mothers Day so I wonder if I can do that to his birthday cake. Or since we go to NV and eat at the Cheesecake Factory every year maybe the waitress can bring out a special cheesecake ;)

The 3rd video you can hear people saying "O well it's another boy" They are not as excited as the other 2 videos.

My husband wants to do this, but I'm not sure. I don't think people would be excited if its another boy.

I would love to have once after PGD, so I would secretly know and then get to celebrate it with everyone! :-)

That would be the only time I'd do a gender reveal party - if I knew the gender secretly myself :P

DH was talking about not going to visit his parents for his b-day/mother day weekend. So I told about how I want to have a gender reveal party. He got all excited about it.
After this coming weekend we will not see my in-laws until that weekend so we are going to try and hide the pregnancy until then ;)

I really like the idea, but then we do already have a girl so if we ended up with another boy it wouldnt be too upsetting iykwim?
I think it looks fun, id have to know before the party though, but id like to reveal it to friends and family this way lol
