I am curious though, of those of you that would never peek and those of you that have to peek, where did you fall when it came to learning the gender of your babies while pregnant? Did the peekers find out the sex? Did the non peeekers wait?

I never peek at the end of the book BUT I found out the gender of all four of my babies at the ultrasound.


Two times I didn't find out and two times I did! First and last I didn't want to know, both in the middle I found out. Hey, no fair asking a question I felt compelled to answer! I promised myself I would get my work done today and not visit TwilightMoms until I was done!!!

I wanted to know them all and I found out them all. The most important one was the last one though, because my 3rd one is handicapped and everyone was freaked thinking something might be wrong with the 4th, too, but there was no problem with her at all.

I found out both pregnancies what I was having. I would've been OK waiting but hubby couldn't stand the thought that the doctor and the technicians would know and he/we wouldn't. So that's why we found out.

As for reading BD. No peeking for me. I will take the events as they unfold.

I am never a peeker, I like the journey good or bad. I saw people in line buying HP Deathly Hallows immediatly reading the end and as I stared at them with my mouth hanging open all I could think was "I hope they don't say anything out loud".

That being said, for the first time in my life I skipped ahead in New Moon, I needed to see Edwards name again to make sure he came back.

But I will want to peek at BD but I wont let myself.

I would never, ever even consider reading the last chapter first, not even a peek! I have to read the book in exact order, the end can't be completely understood unless you read the rest of the book first. Similarly, the book has far less meaning and excitement for me if I already know result. Count me as one who will read in chronological order!

I will most definitley read it straight through. All the while, making predictions and trying to identify elements of foreshadowing. I am also preparing to read it all at once. With the other books, I would say to myself "just one more chapter" and the next thing I knew it was 10 hours later and I finished the book.

When I read New Moon, I did look at the last page to be sure Edward was coming back. I was satisfied when I saw his name, and didn't really read what was being said on the page.

I don't think I'll spoil myself with Breaking Dawn, because I'm not really worried that it's going to end in a bad way.

I go back and forth about whether or not I'll look at the end! The closer it gets though, the more I think I won't do it.

I never peek in books and we wanted to know the gender of all three of our babies.

We were determined to not know the gender of our first baby, but then I got in a car accident and when they did ultrasounds to check the baby, the guy asked me, and I gave in. We didn't even try to keep the gender of the next two babies a secret. Sometimes I peek in books, sometimes I don't.

Yes, I did find out the gender of both of my children, as early bas possible. But, I would never read that last chapter first. Book in correct order only.

I just read it through, usually. The exception is New Moon. When Edward left I cried for about 20 minutes, then peeked in the last chapter to see if his name was there. It was, so I read the rest. :lol: I just HAVE to have my happy endings!!


It was just the same with me :wink:
