With my first pregnancy I wanted to find out, no question! I wanted to be able to pick out pink or blue. I did make sure that all large items like pack-n-play, swing, stroller and car seat where neutral because the plan was to have 2 kids!
With this second baby, I would go back and forth about wanting to find out the sex. Then one day it just clicked. I didn't want to find out. Mainly because I think having a baby is a huge surprise. There is no window to see into my belly, so why would I spoil the surprise! This is our last, so this is my last chance to be surprised by one thing I cannot ruin!
Some friends and family think I am crazy, what with the planning that comes with a newborn baby! Others having congratulated me for the choice I have made! I am tickled. I can't wait for that moment in the delivery room "IT'S A . . . " I also can't wait for people to put their guesses in! I mean, it is a 50/50 chance of getting it right!
I plan to do a neutral nursery {check out
my Pinterest Board!} Maybe I will put together an idea board like I did with Shelby! Something about putting together a nursery that excites me! I am not a fan of themed nursery. I like to design something where they can grow into it! A neutral nursery will be a challenge for me, I love color but I know that I can always add more color after baby 2 is born!
Like the above quote says, "life is too short" and I am happy I made this decision to wait to find out, because that is exactly what I want!
Did you wait?? Would you be able to? Love to hear from you!
