Hey Team Greeners...

Just checking in....
Is everyone trying to guess what you are having?
If so, is the majority telling you one gender over another?
Do YOU have a strong feeling about what you are having?
This discussion has been closed.
Re: Hey Team Greeners...
Yes...I'm answering my own post, hehe.
Yes- people are constantly trying to guess, and I think it's so fun.
I think the people closest to me are saying boy and then coworkers and some other people are saying girl.
I think boy- but I also believe my ultrasound tech slipped and led us to believe its a boy.
We found out we were having a boy because of an inexperienced tech that made a mistake. But we had been so set on being Team Green that we decided to keep the secret just between us and nobody knows. So, I'll answer the questions.
Everybody is guessing and I would say we get about 75% boy to 25% girl guesses. Before we found out, I didn't have a strong feeling one way or the other. I was leaning girl, but that's because I kind of wanted a girl before we found out.
The majority of people that are guessing guess boy. I think in part b/c we have a girl and this pregnancy has been so different for me than the last.
I go back and forth. My first guess was boy- back in October, but I've gone back and forth since then. I really have no idea. I can't wait to find out!
Not a lot of people are guessing for me. Mainly just the grandmothers and a couple ladies on TB.
My husband and I both feel pretty strongly that we're having a boy and a girl.
I can't wait to find out. I'm still amazed that after over 20 ultrasounds no one has spilled the beans.
Is everyone trying to guess what you are having? Yes. It drives me crazy some days as A's family is convinced we know the sex and that it's another girl just b/c we bought bunk beds for our daughter's big girl room. We honestly do NOT know what it is!
If so, is the majority telling you one gender over another? Besides A's family thinking girl, everyone else says boy.
Do YOU have a strong feeling about what you are having? Nope. Not even an inkling. I change my mind by the hour somedays what I think this baby is.
If so, is the majority telling you one gender over another?I get mixed answers.
Do YOU have a strong feeling about what you are having? I don't know why but I think we're having a boy.
People are constantly guessing and they are always so confident! They have been like 50/50.
I feel like it's a girl but I don't know why lol. Also, the odds are in favor of a boy.... every 1st born in DH's family has been a boy, but I just have this feeling it's a girl. (Maybe it's cause I'm 1 of 4 girls so the idea of a boy in the family is so new to me.)
Everybody is trying to guess. Their guesses haven't changed but the second question I get from people after when are you due is "what are you having?".
All my family except two think boy. My co workers and friends all think boy.
DH and I had a strong feeling in the beginning that it was a boy. He still thinks so but I truly don't know anymore. The closer I get to my due date the more I just don't know. I love not knowing though. It's going to make that moment sooooo special!!
I thought the u/s tech slipped with my first because she said 'he.' Obviously, DD is all girl. So, you never know.
Not many people are guessing this time with me. I also don't ask...and probably have my "bite me" face on too often. But, everyone who is guessing says 'boy.'
I also feel like this could be a boy, because everything about this pregnancy has been different. But, I'm hoping for another girl, so I might be just protecting myself against disappointment.
Everyone I know has guessed. I found that when you announce your are pregnant or someone recognizes that you are, the first question is how far along, the next is boy or girl. Every time, when I say we are waiting to find out, the person guesses. Every single time. I've come to embrace it and now ask people for their guess. I'd say in the begining before 3rd trimester guesses were like 95% boy, 5% girl. At this point more people are starting to guess girl so probably 70% boy, 30% girl.
I have a feeling it's a girl, but DH still thinks boy. Time will tell.

At first everyone said it would be a boy based on the fact that both DH and my family have mostly boys, I am the only granddaughter and he only has one girl cousin. However since I started showing everyone that has seen me has changed to a girl. DH is convince it is a boy and won't consider a girl at all. I think he has me convinced it is a boy too but for some reason when I daydream about LO its always a girl, in dreams though its a boy. As you can see I have no idea.
Not too many people have guessed before the past couple of weeks, but I have since gotten a crazy pregnancy rash. A lot of people are now saying that due to this & not having it before, they think it is a girl.
I don't have a strong feeling this time. I keep going back & forth about it. My first pregnancy I was pretty sure it was a boy all-along, but this time around is different.
For me only family is trying to guess what we're having, everyone else is convinced it's a boy. The family has about a 50/50 split on girl and boy. At my show MIL had everyone fill out a card with what day they thought the baby would be born on and if it would be a girl or boy. They were great to look at the trend tends to be that everyone who thinks I might go into labor early is leaning toward girl and everyone who thinks I'll be over-due says boy.
Personally I have no real inkling one way or the other.
