I'm glad not everyone is sick of them, my appointment is tomorrow and it has felt like FOREVER waiting for the end of the month to come. Soon all of us will know that want to find out! I still like to see what everyone is having.
I'm certainly not sick of them. I mean they are to be expected from a lot of people. I just wish that since there are so many, that people would put what they are having in the title. I'm interested to see what everyone is having, just not interested in clicking on evey "It's a..." post to find out.

Sick or not, I think everyone is entitled to announcing what they are having. Just because a handful of people have known since the beginning of June (just a guess-tamate) doesn't mean the ones who won't find out until the end of July don't get the same right to post an announcement.
If you don't like it, don't read it.

My feelings exactly.
I admit I'm attempting to be Team Green to the very end so gender reveal posts really don't spark my interest. I tend to just gloss over them. But you can bet that if I accidentally discover something tomorrow, I'll be making my own announcement post like everyone else.

I'm not 'sick' of them but if I'm being honest I will say I am jealous of them. I feel like mine is the last one (I know better, but just feels that way). I don't have my a/s until the 7th. I'm just ready to know already gahhh!

Don't worry...my a/s is 7/7, too! I honestly thought about calling to try to get it moved to this week sometime but DH, his mother and my work have made plans to get out early so I can't really change it now...I'm not finding out the gender, but I want to see LO and know that things are okay!!
I'm not sick of gender posts - everyone should have a chance to AW their baby's gender. I do wish people would put the gender in the title of the post though. Usually I don't respond anyway and it's easier if I don't have to open every single post to find out.
I'm pretty indifferent to them - don't love em or hate em. It is fun to share in others excitement since it is a pretty big deal to know your baby's sex. I was totally sick of the NT scan posts after about a week and stopped reading them.

100% sick of them. Honestly this has been a board for what, 5 mo? There are 100s of posters here, and for the most part I have no idea who they are. I know a couple because of conversations with them, but thats about it. Everybody is going to get either a girl or a boy. Period, thats how it works. I don't know your backstory, what you were hoping for, etc.....so I have a hard time getting excited about every single one.
I do not open the "we're having a...." or the "we are team...." posts. Period. I appreciate those who put we're having a boy! as their post title. Put a "its a girl!" badge in your siggy-that will help-cause I guarantee I don't remember who is having what.
FTR- I find out today what I'm having, and I will not make a post about it. At least I'm not a hypocrite I'll put a "its a girl" badge or something in my sig, but thats it.

I may be the only one who enjoys when people put "it's a..." that way I get a split second to guess in my mind before I see what they're having! Keep the posts coming - I think the majority of us enjoy them!
ETA: This is coming from the girl who youtube'd "gender reveal parties" for a good half hour! I just love seeing people's reactions when they find out, whether I know them personally or not!

This. I am more than happy to click on the ones that list the sex in the title. I freaking HATE the "We're team..." posts.
My feelings exactly.

My a/s is also next Tuesday
