I have an ultrasound today which will hopefully reveal to me the sex of the baby. Although I'd truly be happy with either, there are a few reasons why having a girl would make things less complicated.
For one, the father is insistent on naming the baby after him if its a boy. He would have the same first, middle and last name and be "the third." I've never agreed with people branding their children with their names, and have always strongly felt that a person deserves his/her own name. This is one thing he won't budge on, however. So if its a boy, there will be many fights to be had. But if its a girl, then I get to name it which would be a lot more fun.
Also, since it looks like the child will be living mainly with me, it seems it would also be easier and more suited if it were a girl.
But I guess we'll see! I'm 19 weeks along now so hopefully they can tell me for sure either way. Stay tuned.
