DS' room is green (also didn't know what we were having with him) and I am pretty certain I don't want to go with yellow or ivory because I think we already have a lot of that in our house, which pretty much just leaves blue. I don't mind the idea of a blue room, but don't want it to seem boyish if we have a girl.

Re: Team green people - what color are you painting the nursery?
Once I was allowed to pick the color of my room I always picked a light blue.
We are not going to be team green, but painted the room that is the nursery when we were renovating and we did it in tan/brown.
What if you did a pale grey with punches of color? I'm not team green or to the point of painting a nursery, but this has totally inspired me:

My life has a superb cast but I can't figure out the plot.
I?m not Team Green, but I am doing a gender neutral nursery to use for more than one kid.
The walls will be a tan/light brownish color and the bedding and accents throughout the room are green, brown, white, and a splash of blue.
I think blue could definitely work for a girl, just use other colors in the accents, purple, yellow, pink, etc.

Motherhood is not for wimps
I'm not even pregnant yet, but a friend of mine painted her nursery an orange color because they were also team green. Afterwards, you can add accents of any color to match the sex of your baby!
It is already painted a bluish green. The baby will only be in that room for a year or two, then we'll move LO upstairs to his/her permanent room. We're leaving LO downstairs for a while since our room is downstairs.

I think turquoise is a good option. It's bright and goes really well with pink if you decide to add some pink accent pieces.
I was thinking about doing an sea theme that way blue walls would make sense whether it's a girl or boy.

Nursery is tan. I use wall decals to decorate that way later on down the road I don't have to repaint!
Just stumbled upon this:

Such a cheerful color! Of course, uses lots of yellow, too.
Our nursery has yellow walls with a green carpet. We're using a lot of green and blue in the room. I love the way the three colors work together.
