For preparations, sure, why not? But if you truely don't want to, then wait it out. If you don't care, i'd find out just to be ahead of the game.

I want to its weird though that alot of people think that its a bad evil thing to find out.I dont know why that is.My sister just found out she is pregnant 2 weeks ago and she said NO WAY would she find out.

I didn't want to know so therefore I chose not to find out. It was a personal choice and I have to say the surprise was worth it. After going through labor it gave me something to look forward too. Just a thought. By the way, I had a feeling about the sex of all three of my children, and I was dead on! I just knew, I don't know how I new but I did.

One last thing, my bestfriend was told she was going to have a little girl. She wanted to know so she could get a head start on shopping for the baby. Well, as it turns out her little girl was a boy, and she was stuck trying to return all those dresses and pink sheet. I would say if you find out and they tell you it's a boy, then they are likely right, but if they say it's a girl, be careful, b/c maybe, just maybe they missed something.

Congrats, on your pregnancy and if you ever need any advice feel free to ask, I've had three kids. 2 c-sections and 1 natural. I've pretty much been through it all. Good luck and take care of yourself and you little one.

I had my son naturally and also had no pain relief just nitrous oxide and i was thinking about having a c section because of all the problems i had with him.I was in labour 15 hrs then induced then forceps and a tear 2nd degree and getting stitched for over 1 hour.I heard that once you have scarred tissue the skin does not stretch is that true as i was hoping next time i might only get maybe 5 sutures max.Because if the skin does not stretch then i would tear or have to have an epesiotomy is that right ?

I would think it would make stuff ALOT easier, we got an ultrasound........and its a girl!

[Smokin2]

I wish I could help you with that one, but I didn't tear with the one I had naturally. I did have a c-section first and then a natural and then a c-section. I tried to have my last one naturally but her cord was wrapped so they had to take her. I will tell you I recovered much faster with the natual birth, but as I said I didn't tear and they didn't have to assist with anything either. He was my smallest baby too, so maybe that helped me. My first was breech so I had no choice there either.

[jacquelyne]

with my son his little willy was clear as day on the ultrasound she pointed it out to me.I will be happy with either actually i hope theres twins 1 of each lol.

By they way I do think your right about the scaring and possible tearing more.
