My wife is 13 weeks pregnant with our first child (we're super excited). We have an appointment on November 1st to determine the sex. I think it'll be a girl, and she says boy.

I told her we should make a bet. If she wins, she gets a gift card to her favorite store. If I win, I get a new-to-me bow. The bow will most likely be used based on the dollar amount we set, but it'll be a fun bet regardless.

Congrats on the baby, and maybe on a bow. There is nothing like fatherhood, enjoy every minute of it.

The cool thing about your bet is that no matter who wins. You will have a future trad bow shooter.

Win win. If youre right you get a bow. And if shes right you get a son. :-)

Just remember that early ultrasounds have been known to be wrong! So don't go whole hog on nesting the room out girl or boy till you are certain.

I'm with Bisch, either way you win. And let's be real, this is just hoping you can assuage your guilt by winning the bet...you'll buy the bow either way:)

Well good luck on the bet and here's wishing you 27 more weeks (give or take) of smooth sailing / good health for the mom to be.

That is the most complicated complot I ever saw, for getting a new bow with permission of the wife! Learning all the time here!
But congrats, I keep my fingers crossed it is a girl!

Congrats, there will be no losers on this bet

Congrats. Kids are the best. As far as the bet goes, you both win either way! Warmest regards.
