" We specifically told them we did NOT want to know what it is, just that they are healthy"

Exactly. My kids were born around the same time. We said the same thing. My bride had the pre-natal ultrasounds. The staff was informed not to tell us. The nurses turned the monitor to where she couldn't see it.

Pink and Blue envelopes both at the ready. Surprise!

I was a phone tech working for GTE.
A phone was out at the VA in the ultrasound department.
Slow day, so about four of us, went down to look at the problem.
When I saw we were in the ultrasound department, I said,
“Wouldn’t it be fun to have the ultrasound done like right now?
A person heard me and said
“yeah.
We are a teaching hospital too”
This part of the VA was for men.
This was my third and last pregnancy.
Three C-sections. I already had two boys.
I wanted another boy.
Up on the table I went and she put the wand
on my stomach and he was in the perfect position to see that he was a boy.
