Can I vent for just a minute? I am so upset about finding out the gender of my baby this coming…
Can I vent for just a minute? I am so upset about finding out the gender of my baby this coming Thursday... "Why?" You may ask. Well because I planned the best way (in my opinion) to do a gender reveal and now everyone on my side of the family has their feelings hurt. Because my husband and I have different off days and we are going to both be off Thursday for the appointment we decided to hold a dinner for just our parents and step-parents. It would be hard to get everyone together on a Thursday. Anyway, I have a box for each set of parents to open that will have a pink or blue balloon in it along with a framed ultrasound to reveal the sex to our parents to film their reactions. Then two days later when I am off work I was planing on driving to my grandma's, all of my Husband's grandparents' houses and then to all of our siblings houses. Then give the grandparents a gift that included a mason jar full of green and yellow marbles a little poem on a label that had the name under the lid and an ultrasound to reveal the gender to them and film their reactions. Then the siblings would get a card that had poems written on them about being an aunt or an uncle and when it opened glitter would be in it revealing the gender and I would film their reactions. Then on Sunday I would compile all the videos and put it online for everyone else to find out... but that is not good enough. My dad is mad that I dont want my little brother and sister at the dinner. My grandma is mad that she has to wait two days. In the process of them expressing their anger I was called every bad word possible. Now I hope the baby is modest and no one can know the gender.

that is horrible they shouldn't be that way and just let you do it how you like. that's why we didn't do a gender reveal. hope everything work's out.

@momma11161407, That's true, but it just bothers me that they are acting like it is a personal attack on them when I was trying to make the reveal personal for everyone. All of my husband's family loved the idea... and my older brothers liked it and so did my momma. My dad and grandma have a huge entitlement complex lime they deserve to know before anyone else in the world.

that sounds like a great idea... personally if that was my case I would find out the sex and tell everyone else that the baby would not let y'all see the sex so y'all didn't find out... just my opinion. do what you feel is right.

I thought about it... but I dont want to punish everyone for the actions of two. @mircalhoun
Miranda·
than I would just tell everyone else and make those two wait for being so hurtful/ disrespectful
