So Aggravaaaaated!!

So I called my Dr's office yesterday to
find out what was going to go on at my
appt on Mon. And basically to find out
if/when I would get the gender
determination.
So the lady was like "well your nurse
hasn't written up your chart yet, but if I
were to guess, it'll prob just be a
measurment(with the tape measurer 
) of your uterus.
So I asked "well when does he do the
gender determination?"
And she says "ohh..he doesn't do sex
determination by ultrasound..."
and I said "WHAT?!?! Why didn't *I* know
this from the beginning?!"
So she asked me how many u/s's I'd had and
I said one (because the 1st one, I was
supposed to be 15 weeks and wound up only
being 9 so he just shot a quick pic for
me...)
And she said "well you could have asked
him at that u/s to see if he could tell."
and I said "well I was only 15 weeks...I
didn't think you oculd even tell them! Man
I wish I knew this!"
And all she could say was "I'm so
sorry...you'll get another one at around
38 weeks...?"
But in all reality...if I can make it to
38 weeks without knowing...then I might as
well wait till I have it! Grrr!!
We've been thinking about just not finding
out. I mean how many surprises are REALLY
left in life?!?!?!
But on the other hand I REALLY REALLY want
to know!!!

lol girl you'll haveTHOUSANDS more
surprises with two baba's running around..
surprises for the next 18+ years!
i'd find out.. maybe pay a little extra
and go have a 3D scan done. Theres a place
in Orlando that has a theater you get it
done in and can have like, 15 people in
there watching with you. its pretty neat
and its only like $99.

I just hated when I paid $150 to see what

I voted that you should find out the sex!
I couldn't find out with Kaylee until I
was 36-37 weeks (Can't really remember
when, I know it was like 2 weeks before I
had her) because she was always laying the
wrong way & it was so aggravating. I
wanted to have either a little boys or
little girls room, not yellow & green!

Oh man that is a tough one. I have always
thought that I would want it to be a
suprise, but every time I think about it,
I would want to find out. That way we
would have that much more time to pick a
name and stick with it and refer to
him/her. Also you can get their room all
decorated and get clothes and all that
stuf.
I personally would want to know for sure.
My friend had 2 u/s and they couldn't tell
the sex of the baby for sure...THey were
only 75% sure she was a girl. She wanted
to know, so she paid the extra money to
get the 4D u/s done.

Ya see...and that's just it. There are
people out there that DO have the
oppurtunity to find out the sex and
can't...
I found a place, in Baton Rouge (about 2
1/2 hours from me in New Orleans), and
they have a GREAT package.
For Oni (which was just a 2d u/s for like
5 mins) I paid $150.
This is the package I'm interested in...
*4D Ultrasound Package: $149 Single $199
Twins
*Performed by a Certified Obstetrical
Ultrasonographer
*DVD Copy of Session Set to Music
*One Hour Appointment
*Color and B&W Printed Pictures
*CD-R with Image Files, Great for Emailing
or Printing
*Gender Determination
*$20 Discount on any Future Visit (Same
Pregnancy)
Hell, if i get this, I'd be SET!! But
mreh....I don't knooooowww!!

Oh I would do it Sarah. My friend that
did it said that it was so worth the
money, and it put her mind at ease with
the gender.

ya with macy i was here in FL and my mil
worked in the radiology dept at the
hospital so i got a free ultrasound. with
liam they couldnt schedule me til i was
like 25 weeks and i wanted to know as soon
as possible so i paid $80 for 30 mins of
3d ultrasound with 4 pics.
this time im going to one in Orlando where
is $250 for two visits one at 17-20 weeks
and one at 27-29 weeks 30 mins a peice
both with dvds pics and a pic cd for
emailing.
i hope you find out!! thats so not fair
your doctors office is so unprofessional,
youd think theyd tell you the schedule of
your ultrasounds. or if he could see the
sex at that one he could have said "do u
want to know"

Do it! You will be so relieved,
especially with the name difficulties you
guys have been having.

I think you should do find out!! It's soo
much easier to plan when you know if it's
a he or she. I'm so glad I was able to
find out so soon, because I love calling
him by his name instead of "it".

boy/girl when you've given birth.

a deal with him that he can be the only
one who knows and he cant tell ANYONE what

either lol
i have a feeling the next time we have a
baby its going to be a boy. i really hope
so

I didn't get the whole "it's a girl!"
thing.. the stupid midwife just went "did
you know the sex?" & because I wasn't
100% sure I was like "erm.. well I think
it's a girl" & she went "yeah it is"
I think you should find out Sarah.. that
ultrasound package sounds awesome!

so they are not gonna give you a 20 week

standerd! I found out the sex of this baby
but the next time I want it to be a
surprise!
