Ever WAITED to find out sex of baby and just KNEW what it would be or been WRONG?

I REALLY would like to wait to find out the sex of our next shild (when I DO become pregnant) but I feel like I already know it's going to be a girl. I was right both times before but. I feel like I can't see it being anything but a girl. So I'm worried that I will subconciously be expecting a girl and give birth to a boy.. Which would be fine... But if I HAD TO choose I would say girl. Has anyone ever KNOWN what they were having in their heart and been wrong? ALSO how do you stay strong and keep the sex of the baby a surprise? I am sooo impatient and like almost OCD when it comes to pregnancy. I got an ER tech at 14weeks to tell me I was having a boy and My daughter I asked and made sure atleast 100 times to make sure it was a girl lol. I got exactly what I wanted. I wanted a girl first and then I wanted a boy and I got it. I'm hoping luck will stay on my side,,

Update:

I want to wait to find out the sex of my next child but I'm not sure if I'm strong enough to keep it a secret... How do I keep myself from asking the doctors?

    My mom waited to find out with me because my father had 3 boys from a previous marriage and REALLY wanted a girl. Everyone told her she was having a boy and she thought so too since he had three boys and she didn't want to disappoint my father by him knowing it was a boy since he wanted a girl, but I am def a girl!!

    Ever since I found out I was pregnant, I knew it was a girl. Last week we went for the anatomical ultrasound and I was right! I agree though that it is 50/50, so your chances of being right are as high as they are that you are wrong.

    It's a 50/50 shot, so your "feeling" is just a shot in the dark...sorry.

    I waited to find out with my first. Just be patient and try not to think about it.
