I'd go crazy if I couldn't find out the gender! I live with my mom and stepdad and I told my mom I was pregnant before I had decided if I wanted to keep the baby or not (I took some time to think over all the options) but when I did tell her I was keeping it she went out the same day and bought baby clothes lol!
How did your parents take it?
Yeah all the hospitals in my part of Northern Ireland won't reveal the gender. It is ridiculous. Every-where else in the UK will reveal the gender... still abortion is still illegal in the north and south of Ireland (not that I had even considered that in the first place). Awh! I am sooo glad your family took the news well
My family took it very well tbh! They were in shock for about 3 days and kept cuddling me because they were worried about me (I had really bad morning, noon and night sickness from 3-16 weeks) and my OH's family were excited from when we told them!! My mum and dad have been very good buying baby stuff but not until after I had my 20 week scan and they knew baby was ok!
How did your OH react?
