Re: Moms 2012- 2013

imho, finding out gender beforehand isn’t interfering with Allah’s plan in any way unless you’re planning to abort your fetus if its not what you were expecting; i don’t think anyone here would do something as horrific. its a surprise AND Allah’s blessing- no matter when you find out, 20 weeks or at birth.

Re: Moms 2012- 2013

I agree with SGC on this…when we were going through IVF, my RE said we could opt for gender selection if we so chose to (and pay an additional $20K out of pocket to send the sperm to a special lab in California :bummer:) but I was vehemently against it as to me that would be interfering with Allah’s plans for us and our baby…however, finding out the gender of an already formed and thriving fetus during a routine ultrasound..I don’t see the harm in that at all!

I’ve heard that most dr’s/clinics in Pakistan do not reveal the gender though…

Re: Moms 2012- 2013

^ probably because people there might opt for aborting a female fetus. there are tons of cases like that in india, even though i'm pretty sure it is against the law to do so.

Re: Moms 2012- 2013

go to an ultrasound specialist.
i was just thinking how important knowing was for me. and in knowing I named my child and the baby became real before birth for me and my husband especially due to having a name and gender.

Re: Moms 2012- 2013

Re: Moms 2012- 2013

Re: Moms 2012- 2013

I do but that is the lower abdomen or the pelvic floor. Not in the lower stomach.

from what I ve been hearing from around, its almost the same story. People are mostly waiting and crossing the edd and still no signs of labor. This is something which scares me aswell.

Re: Moms 2012- 2013

im still wandering around , up and down stairs, travelling across pakistan. eighth month ending in five days. ninth month coming up.

Re: Moms 2012- 2013

I ve found the 9th to be the best of all anyway. Because there is so much less care and waiting phase is almost over. :hinna:
