[quote=Anonymous]Yeah, you need to start growing a spine. Once  you will have a baby, and as it will grow EVERYBODY will have an opinion of what you should and what you should not do. You will quickly realize that you have two choices, either to try and please them or do what you really are meant to do - parent your own child the way you feel is the best because it is your child and you are forming a person with the best effort and best intentions in mind and the child's best interest. It is not in a child's best interest to be raised by everyone else and to be telling you all the time how to do it when you did not ask for advice. When and if you ask, that is different, but even then you will need to choose out of everything comes your way what you feel is the right thing.

Basically you need to realize now that it is time to do what YOU feel is right. So if you don't want to know the sex of your baby then you don't. Other people need to accept it. They can do anything they want with their babies sex info and you are not going to change their mind, trust me. So whatever you choose it is your decision not theirs.

You need to feel the power. Just be firm and polite and kindly say that this is the choice you made with your husband and this is what you are going to do.  As to explaining yourself, you really don't need to  but if you insist on that, then just tell them you want to do it the traditional way and just be surprised because you are open and welcome to either sex.

The only bummer is that if you are set on any color coded purchases for girl or boy then you would not be able to do it because you will need to go more neutral so if this is okay with you then that is all. Babies do nor really care if it is pink, blue or yellow or whatever in the first place.

There is the trend now anyway, more and more people including movie stars etc. not wanting to know the sex of the baby.
