[quote=Anonymous]I think it's different than keeping the name secret. I do find out the sex because it's part of the package of info the doctor's office has for me and I don't see a good reason to turn down any of it. I don't keep it secret from others, that seems like it would be manipulative if the only purpose is to get gender neutral gifts or something (no "gender reveal" parties, it's not "gender" anyway, it's just information we have that we will share if asked). But keeping the name secret is the only sane thing to do! Otherwise half your friends and family will try to argue you out of it, and you'll always know who hated your kid's name. Once it's a done deal on the birth certificate, 99% of people will just say "oh what a nice name" or keep silent.[/quote]
