The inevitable question that comes directly after that (from the person who would never find out early) is, "Don't you want to be surprised?"
I'm never rude when I answer that person, but I have to shake my head (to myself) in amazement. Surprised? Really? Isn't it still only 2 options? Girl or Boy? I want to ask them in a very sarcastic way, "Have you ever flipped a coin and was SHOCKED by the outcome?" Have you flipped a coin and heads came up and wondered aloud, "What kind of voodoo quarter is this?"
Actually there are several reasons why we want to find out the sex:
1) Planning for baby room
2) Planning for baby toys/clothes/etc...
3) Deciding on names
and most importantly....
4) Em just doesn't have the patience for that. (jk)
I support finding out all day. Something we did was have the ultrasound tech write it down in a concealed envelope. We then went out to a nice dinner and opened it up. We found this more romantic than when Amy had jelly on her belly.
