So many of us are finding out now, let's see who is taking over the board, boys or girls??

P.S. I thought this was going to be a "LOOK AT MY CHILD'S GENITALS!!!$?!!" post until I saw your name. I came in ready to fight. lol

@keighty80 😂😂😂 should've thought of a better title. I keep doing that 😂

lappymom2019

@keighty80 Haha I thought the same thing until I saw who posted it 😂

@eatinwatermelonseeds edit the discussion title to POLL: Battle of the Sexes 

eatinwatermelonseeds

@mrskoz428 that's exactly what I was just thinking

mrskoz428

Boys currently have it! I feel like that’s pretty accurate for our board.

eatinwatermelonseeds

@mrskoz428 I've been seeing so many girls lately, I thought for sure the girls would have it. I'm a little surprised lol

mrskoz428

@eatinwatermelonseeds true but a lot of the early knowers were boys. Like, almost all I feel.

I’m curious how many are team green on this board! We were with our first, but decided to try the other way this time and found out. I was by far in the minority in the group I was in at the time, but I feel like I have seen a decent number commenting here and there on this board.

I can't play yet!!!!! It's driving me *crazy* not knowing!

ElleJDubs

@minnemiska I was team green with my first too and definitely in the minority! Found out with my 2nd and will find out with this one on Wednesday!

MaggieG183

@minnemiska team green here and I’ve seen at least 2-3 others, but we are far outnumbered. When I talk to people about it in the real world, they act completely astonished that we wouldn’t find out. I, personally, am so stoked for the surprise!

mrskoz428

@MaggieG183 my MIL makes me feel like I’ve ruined it by finding out because she didntband it was “way more fun to be able to surprise everyone with everything”. Don’t get me wrong, total props to people who can wait it out and get that extra special surprise but I am such a planner than not knowing beforehand would slowly eat away at me. 😂😂

DuchessOfCambridge

@mrskoz428 yessss. Now that I will have one of each maybe our third can be a surprise... But also maybe not.

kmw611

@DuchessOfCambridge i was thinking along the same line. Maybe once I have a girl we'll stop finding out but right now I'm 2/2 boys. 

knarlytaurus

We're team yellow (we know but aren't telling) but I did vote here in the interest of scientific accuracy  

minnemiska

@MaggieG183 having now done it both ways I can officially say that Team Green was more fun! My husband got to announce in the delivery room and I will never forget the look on his face as his fulfilled his duties! (not that I regret finding out this time, but a lab report is inherently less exciting than an actual newborn)

@knarlytaurus we contemplated going team yellow this time, because I feel weird about gendering a fetus, but then my husband told his mom without asking me. I was super pissed at him for making the decision without me but by that point it was too late. MIL tried asking about names too and I made it very clear we are NOT sharing names with anyone.

Hey, you forgot to add BOTH as an option that's okay, I'm one of a handful of MOMs here. And I'm obviously late to the game anyhow!

eatinwatermelonseeds

@wishiwaspreggo ahhhh sorry! 😂 Twin mom's matter too. I was very spacy with this one, sorry 😬

wishiwaspreggo

Ha! No worries, @eatinwatermelonseeds I realize I'm a rare bird here. Not offended at all. It's funny how much more common boys seem to be. I read that there are slightly more males than females because in olden days, male babies had a lower survival rate and were less likely to make it out of infancy/toddlerhood alive. Raising a son, I can definitely understand that.

eatinwatermelonseeds

@wishiwaspreggo oh yes, it's a wonder any make it to adulthood 😂 crazy little things. 

jarethinafrock

This is my 3rd kid and my 3rd time being team green. I love it because it motivates me during labour.

I finally got to answer "boy" in one of these polls! 😁
