Thread: Ultrasound woes. Ugh!

Thanks! The ultrasound is coming up soon, and has been on my mind a lot. I was hoping this week would go slow yet fast at the same time, and it has. Only 4 more days and 3 1/2 hours from now.
Do you think it's possible to tell the guy doing the ultrasound that I don't want him to hide the goods from me but not say out loud what it is, then have him put it in an envelope? My husband doesn't have much experience in looking at ultrasounds, so there's more of a chance I would be able to tell what it is and he wouldn't. But I wouldn't be 100% sure until we open the envelope together later. I don't know why I want to do it this way. I just really want to be able to see it for myself and first. I don't want this stranger to have the satisfaction of knowing before me either, although he probably will be able to see it and tell first. At least he won't be able to say it to me. I think I'm way overthinking all of this.

Oh and I forgot to add. I'm thinking if we choose not to tell anyone IRL, that I'm not sure if I'll be able to put it online either. I really don't know if anyone knows I go on any of these sites or not. So if anyone wants to know I may have to PM you. I'll have to think about it.

Update:
So I talked to my husband about my idea. He said he doesn't care whether we find out or not, or if we tell people. But if I find out he wants to know. He says he thinks he could tell at the ultrasound what it is without being told. So I came up with a new fun idea. We are going to tell the guy doing the ultrasound to show us but not tell us, then have him put in an envelope (like my other idea). But then we are going to go to a store and each of us is going to buy the other one a gift, which could be anything, but it has to show what we think the baby is (like pink or blue or whatever). Then we will open the gifts and then open the envelope together to see who is right. After I told him my idea, my husband asked what do we win if we are right, and I said the satisfaction of being right and he didn't seem satisfied with that. LOL! So I don't know? What would be a good prize for the winner? What if we are both right?

I like the idea of something pink or blue. Since we originally found out via genetic test results I found out the gender over the phone. I packed a little box up with a tiny pink dress and a picture of the book character we'd decided to name a girl after. Then I took that to him at work. It would have been so much better if I hadn't been trying not to cry when I gave it to him, lol, but I think that it was sweet anyways.
Not sure what a good incentive for the winner is - I'd offer a smooch or romp in bed but that may not be all that unusual
Good luck at your scan tomorrow!!Wife to a sweetie DH & Mama to:

Maybe the winner gets both gifts?? OR the winner gets to decide when to tell everybody else the baby's sex and gets to be the one to share the news?
And if it's a tie, the person who got the other one the better gift gets to share the news...and my HT
