  • I think I want to be team green next time since we will probably stop at two. Although now that we have a girl we will probably spend the whole pregnancy planning for a boy.

  • I would be team green in a heartbeat. DH is the one who pushes for finding out!

  • We were surprised with the first, found out for the second.  If we have a third, we'll probably find out again, just so I know whether or not to dig out all my girl clothes from storage.

  • We will definitely be Team Green again! My favorite part of DD's birth was when DH announced that we had a girl.
    We have everything we would need to start a baby out with, we would only need boy clothes if we had a boy. We had no girl clothes for DD, but she had a full wardrobe before we left the hospital since many people bought her outfits or gave us hand-me downs.

  • We were Team Green with DD2, and I was disappointed that my husband didn't want to be Team Green again for DS. It's funny because I was super against not finding out. Gave my one friend hell over it. Then my husband suggested it with our second. A way of making it special in it's own way. At first I told him no way, but finally agreed. I loved it. I would have absolutely done it again, but since we had gotten rid of everything since we thought we were done (ha), he wanted to find out so we could "properly prepare". I begrudgingly agreed. Lol.
  • Loved being surprised!  I relive the moment when my husband said, "It's a little girl!" so many times in my head.  It was just fabulous!

  • Team green this time and will continue to be team green!
  • I found out with all 3 of my boys. I enjoy knowing. I feel like I am a little more connected, and I can prepare for them. I also like getting set on a name, and calling my baby by their name. 

    I would like to one day be team green, because I can only imagine the excitement to find out what you've carried all that time. 

    It would probably be easier for me to be team green if I already had a boy and a girl- then the 3rd be team green. 

    I am a planner though- so I am not sure I could actually even go through with it.

  • We were team green with all our pregnancies. It was wonderful. We are done with two but it was funny to see my intuition was right both times and DH was wrong both times.

    This!

  • Team green all the way! I said (while pregnant with my first) that if we had another Id want to find out. But after the awesomeness that was the surprise, I'd opt for Team Green again!
  • I'm the one who wanted to know this time and will probably be pushing to find out next time as well especially if it's a boy since we can't find a single name we can agree on while we knew immediately with E what her name would be.

  • Team Green FOREVAH.  I loved not knowing until I heard my husband say "It's a boy!" Best. Moment. Ever.

  • I was Team Green this time.  It was fun hearing what everyone thought lo would be.  Everyone thought girl and lo is a boy.  Next time I kind of want to find out because I think if its a boy again I need time to get over that I wont have a girl(we only want 2 kids).
  • I can't do team green next time for two reasons:
    1. I just can't. I just feel more bonded to my unborn when I know if it's a son or a daughter. Don't ask me why.

    2. I was stupid enough to buy a bunch of gender specific pink sh*t for DD, so now we need to know if we'll have to buy new stuff or not.

    All of this for us too

  • We were team green with DS and I loved it. This time we decided to find out to have done it both ways. We are done with kids but if there were to be another one I would definitely be team green. The best moment of my sons delivery was the announcement moment and I wish I'd had that with DD.

  • I'm with @GingerBabyTX Team Green! I loved not knowing, it made the announcement so special, and it was something to work for during the push phase!

  • Oh, man... Team Green sounds so cool and I want to be the kind of person who enjoys the surprise of it all... but I think the Type A part of me won't allow it. I think next time I'll try to maybe hold out a little longer but at the A/S I don't think I could resist!





    I'm not new. I just hate The Bump. 

  • We were Team Green with DS and found out with DD. IF we have a third, we would be Team Green. We have clothes for a boy and a girl so we would be set either way. It was exciting to have people shouting, "It's a boy!," when DS was born. I want the surprise again. 
  • We'll probably try for a third and since we have one of each, I convinced DH to not find out the next time. I really wanted to be team green the second time, but DH begged to find out. It was cute and I couldn't say no ;)

  • I hated being team green.. I wish I would have just forked out the money for an elective scan since they weren't able to tell the sex on any of the scans they did. I feel like I went over board on buying pink stuff right after she was born since I didn't get to plan ahead. We will definitely find out next time around.
    BFP #1: due 6/17/2013, DD born 6/25/13
    BFP #2: due 6/30/2017, MMC found 12/7/2016
    BFP #3: due 10/21/2018 
  • We were team green with DS, but I had PROM at 24 weeks so they had to give me US almost every day to make sure baby was ok and that I had enough amniotic fluid. I told one of the techs to just tell us what we were having. I felt like I really bonded with DS at the time knowing what gender he was because I could call him by his name. So for baby #2 we definitely wanted to find out gender. No more babies for me though!
