Anyone had a sealed gender envelope?

I know this is a bit shady, but I am going to fake one of those gender envelopes šŸ˜‚ any advice?

I’ve already found out my baby girl’s gender over the phone, but my brother doesn’t know that I found out. He thinks I got a sealed envelope from the doctor, which was the original plan, but I couldn’t wait to find out so I impulsively decided to have them tell me. My brothers really excited to be an uncle, and I don’t want to ruin the party that’s planned.

My question - on the inside of the gender reveal envelope from the doctor, if you’ve had one, is it literally like a piece of paper that’s written on? Was it a congratulations card? What was the content of the envelope?

Thank you in advance for your help in this scheme 🤣

I had a sealed envelope and my ob put 3 different colored pieces of paper folded up around a small white piece of paper in the middle. You could always call your ob office and ask them to write it down, as you'd like to surprise your family with the gender.

You can ask the doctor if they can provide a sealed gender reveal envelope. They should be able to accommodate you.

Mine had the results on paperwork where it said the chromosomes and that it was consistent with a female fetus

Day out after c section

Hey,
I had an emergency c section 1 week ago I obviously don't want a day out right now but I have things booked for the Easter holidays so in 2 weeks. I was just wondering if I will be overdoing it if I have a day out then or will I be ok? I would still take it as easy as I could. When did everyone feel good enough to go out?

Period like cramps

Hi
I’m currently 33 weeks pregnant and I keep getting period like cramps I thought these were Brixton hicks but I’ve heard they only last 30 seconds ish as this can go on for a good time frame then go away and come back, they aren’t bad enough where I can’t do basic things they just feel like I’m about to get my period I’m jus wondering how normal this is? Baby is still very actively kicking xx

C section or natural?

I am a control freak and thinking c section is the least stressful route for me and baby… less complications during labour etc. whilst acknowledging recovering can be hard.
If it could be guaranteed no tearing or complications then I would opt for natural and kind of want to experience the feeling.
Then again could plan and go either way šŸ˜‚ arghh!
Anyone else in this predicament?

Midwife check

Can someone remind me when the midwife visits you at home? Is it the day after you’re discharged? And is that the same on the weekend or do they not visit then? Thanks!
