Frustration

Why is it when you have some amazing things happening in your life, other people want to get involved?! I'm pregnant as my three readers now already and this is an amazing thing for us. But, why does a certain member of the family have to spoil it? (Not who you think guys). One member of the family firstly told other family members before we go the chance. Then they told extended family members weeks ago before I had even had my first scan. Again, we wanted to tell these family members. Now this person wants to find out the sex when we don't want to know! They want the specialist to write it down and put it in an envelope. I don't think so! How can anyone ask for this?! They cited that they may not be around in six months time. They are not dying of anything. This same person told my husband something on the day of our wedding that I was planning to surprise him with! I can just see them announcing the sex as I go into labour. Or buying baby items of colours that will give the sex away.
I am not happy about this request and I will not be bowing to it.

Yeah, I think I know who you're talking about... and no, I'm not thinking the obvious... Stay strong, as this is the most personal thing in the world. They should just be happy for you and wish for a healthy baby (like we are!).

I'm actually rather confused as to who you're referring to...
Hang in there and most of all, do it YOUR way.

Thank you guys! I have calmed down somewhat but I just couldn't believe anyone felt that it was ok to ask for that. She will find out soon enough that its a no. Scan is tomorrow afternoon.
