We also choose too find out. It just made it easier for other people, with gifts etc. Though I'm personally not keen on much of the baby girl clothes so that's been a disappointment for me. It's extremely difficult finding clothes for a girl that don't make them look like a boy! lol
Aw no when I am looking for clothes I always think there is so much more choice for girls clothes!! It's always the same though as probably if I was looking for girls clothes I would think there was a better choice of boys. Next and m&s have some gorgeous little girl outfits. I have 2 nieces so often buy girls however my little one will be the first boy in both of the families really so no luck with hand me downs.
Sorry a wee bit off topic there but I totally agree it is much easier if you know the sex to be completely organised. I have went crazy with the blue stuff so fingers crossed that when he arrives (Tuesday at the latest hopefully as getting induced) that he is in fact a he. Or something has went really wrong at the numerous scans I have had!!! xxxxx
