Team Green Check-In

gutsysneakers · March 2014

Hey May Mamas - I don't know if I've seen one of these in awhile and now that we're getting closer - can we check-in?

Any strong feelings about gender? Anyone giving you a hard time? Are you or your SO starting to struggle with not knowing? Is this your first LO? STM+ who've done this before - how did it feel when you found out you had a baby girl or baby boy?

gutsysneakers · March 2014

This is my first LO and this was all DH's idea. I just went along with it because I knew it was important to him. I think its a boy and DH thinks its a girl. Everyone has been pretty good so far in not being ridiculous about us preferring not to know the gender. I have a feeling we'll be getting a lot of gender neutral stuff at the baby shower and I'm pretty happy about that - I'm not a huge pink fan anyway. Now that we're getting close to the end of this journey, I'm getting so excited to meet this little person and can't wait to hear DH tell me if we have a son or daughter.

Still staying team green strong over here!!! I don't have strong feelings as to what it is. I call baby a she and he when referring to it. Most people are just telling me that they wouldn't be able to not find out. My hubby and I are surprisingly not having a hard time. We are still just waiting patiently. However I can't wait to meet this little one. We have no preference as to what we have, as long as it's healthy and there are no complications. And this is our first little one, May can't come soon enough

I am finding Team Green a harder commitment with each passing day. I want to meet my LO so badly!

Any strong feelings about gender? Both DH and I have a "feeling" baby is a boy. We both have had dreams and have taken to referring to the baby as a "he"
Anyone giving you a hard time? Not particularly. I am however getting tired of explaining why we are Team Green whenever people ask.
Are you or your SO starting to struggle with not knowing? Me more than DH
Is this your first LO? Yes

I haven't been active on TB for some time now. (Miss you girls!)
This is our third and first time doing TG. We have a boy and girl already (but nothing for this baby bc we were suppose to be done, lol).
Our of no where, I have really started to feel like it's a boy. It may be that everyone around me is saying it's a boy. You know how it is, everyone swears their guess is correct

people swear the way I am carrying it screams boy.
We don't have a boy name picked yet, but I think we have it narrowed down to 3. Our girl name is ready to go.
I'm starting to get antsy. The last few weeks always seem to drag.

We are doing good as team green, especially since I have ultrasounds 2x a week!
I think it's a girl and so does DH. Everyone else thinks it's a boy since this pregnancy has been so different.
No one has given us a hard time. We found out with DD and it has been fun not knowing this time.
The only time I want to waver is when I'm out shopping. It would make things much easier if I knew. I have a handful of gender neutral stuff and figure I'll go shopping after baby.

FTM and still staying strong as team green. I feel like LO is a girl but DH and all his family say boy.

Ive found nearly everyone we've told that we don't know is excited for the surprise. Both my parents and the IL said dont tell them if we did find out.

mmks · March 2014

STM, staying strong with theTeam Green, but it was my idea all along anyway. I think it might be a girl, but really have no clue.
We thought our son was a boy ever since we were asked at 13 weeks if we wanted to know the sex. Figured if they could tell that early, it must be a boy. Was still amazing having MH announce it when he was born.

I struggle some days, usually when people bug me about it or I am wandering a store and looking at very gender specific clothes.

I honestly have no idea what I'm having. Everyone thinks boy.

pistolpackinmomma · March 2014

Still feel strongly it's a girl but we'll see. Not really struggling like I thought I would. Everyone is harassing me about wanting to know but it's all in good fun. It's not our first LO but is our first time of being team green.

spinsoffresonance · March 2014

STM but first time being team green. No way I could have done it with my first, but it actually has been super easy with this one. Dd is only 16m old so it's not like we need to buy anything for this LO anyways, which makes it easy. I have no hunch whatsoever if it's a boy or girl. DH thinks it might be a boy because I had a much easier first trimester than with DD.
My mom has been giving me a super hard time about it. She already told me that if we didn't find out the sex, she wouldn't love the baby if it's a boy because she would have had no time to get over the disappointment of not having a girl. She's not winning best grandma award anytime soon!

FTM and I am loving being Team Green! I had my baby shower on Saturday and got to many thoughtful, useful gifts. While I know getting clothes is fun it is so nice to have gotten so many necessities. It was also so much fun to hear everyone's guesses and reasoning behind the guesses. I am just so excited for that moment in the delivery room when they announce the sex, I've heard from so many friends that waited to find out that it is the best thing ever.

jcf2133 · March 2014

I'm a FTM and though I do think it might have been easier to pick names if we only needed one, I'm really glad to be Team Green! Can't wait to find out when he or she arrives! Everyone said girl initially, then everyone went boy and now some are going back to girl. I have no clue!

We have our girl name list made but are struggling with the boy names. I have 2 boy names but DH vetoed both and has nothing to replace them with so we're kinda stuck. 7 more weeks to figure it out.

Magicianoffaith · March 2014

FTM team green. 34.5 weeks. We can't wait till baby arrives, now we need to figure out names.

LindsayB0505 · March 2014

We are still team green. We found out with DD, so it has been really different not knowing this time. I was hesitant at first, but am starting to get pretty excited to have that "surprise in the delivery room".

Surprisingly most people commend us for waiting to find out. We got a lot of flack for finding out with DD. To me, both ways you get the "surprise" its just whether its in the ultrasound room or delivery room.

I was most worried about decorating a nursery, but am really liking our gender neutral decor now.

I WANNA KNOW NOW!

Seriously. It's so much harder this time for some reason. I just really want to know. Now. A big part of me wants another girl. H REALLY wants a boy. I'm pretty convinced it's a boy because we such an easier time picking that name. Totes how it works, right?

Either way, I love that "it's a..." moment in the delivery room but I am thinking if we go for 3 I might find out. Although I am sure I am going to forget about all this waiting anxitity and just remember the end.

krysfran1979 · March 2014

Still Team Green and have no feeling either way. It is 50/50 with friends and family. At this point as I just want to meet him/her

By your logic I'm definitely having a girl. We have a list of 3 names for a girl and zero for a boy. I dreamt last night that it was a boy and we had to have a name so we just went with George. There was a lot more crazy to it but that was the ending. Gotta love these crazy dreams!!
