People keep asking if we are going to find out the sex of our baby.
Our answer.. not before he or she is born. We both want that surprise in the delivery room.
Another thing that people are picking up on is the fact that I keep referring to Flump as “he and him”. The reason for this is because I hate to have to say “it” and you can’t say Flump all the time. It doesn’t fit in to every conversation.
Therefore, Matt and I decided that I would refer to Flump as “him” and “he” and he would refer to Flump as “she” and “her” during conversation etc. That way it’s always 50/50 and it remains fair!

I think it’s great to not know whether Flump will be a girl or boy until he or she has arrived. Funny story about this actually. Recently my mother attended a baby shower for a baby that was supposedly going to be a female. Well, somewhere along the way someone didn’t check things right because the baby is actually a male. Unfortunately for the parents, they had bought pink stuff already. So while this is not a common incident I am sure, it’s still something you won’t have to be concerned with. Stay well, and I look forward to reading more updates.

Debbie, there has been many a time when writing comments on things about Flump I have started to write ‘He’ but then deleted it, as we don’t know yet, but know I know you are calling ‘him’, ‘he’ I won’t have to keep editing my messges lol…
Good to hear things are going well honey xxx
