So who will be team yellow??

kimmecakes · September 2015

I'd love a surprise, but as this is baby no 5 I think it will be more practical to find out.

sarahufl · September 2015

I don't plan to find out.

mrsmtothek · September 2015

I had originally wanted to find out, but after talking it over more with DH we decided we want it to be a surprise! Goes against everything my type-a self believes lol but he's just so excited for that moment in the delivery room

We are Harley Riders, so we are claiming Team Orange & Black! It's the one surprise nobody can spoil for you! I didn't find out with my first, and DH and I are super excited to keep this baby a surprise too!! It will be fun to have my daughter and bonus-son be the ones to announce to everyone what the baby is to our family! Just one more way to make sure they feel like this their baby too!

I plan on finding out. I have two girls already so if this LO will be a boy, I want to get some things that aren't pink.

AnnikaD20 · September 2015

Is it called team yellow now? I've always heard team green.

I'm team find out as early as possible. But I understand the appeal of extending the surprise as long as possible.

Tippy05 · September 2015

I've seen the techs be wrong too many times for me to even want to find out. Team green (or yellow, I guess) all the way.

I wanted to find out with the Panorama test, but my DH wants to keep it a surprise. I'm not really patient, so I'm not sure how I'll manage... hihi... I still have 2 weeks before my next u/s to see if I can change his mind. Otherwise I'll have to wait until April 1st!

Could you find out and just not tell your husband? I know more than one person where one half of the couple found out and the other waited until the birth.

My mom was team green with most of my little brothers... until it was ruined by her doctor. Plenty of people can ruin it for you, sadly. The baby's gender is an important part of your pregnancy. Certain conditions are more common with girls or boys so they always note it in your chart. Not trying to rain on your parade!

ashleymarie1027 · September 2015

We were team green/yellow round one and I loved the surprise! We're going the same route this time

Jlnitti80 · September 2015

We aren't going to find out either

briterfly84 · September 2015

@tfmb2009, you are totally right. I knew the doctor knew. I was blessed to have a healthy pregnancy the first go-round, and of course are hoping for the same this time. I gently remind the doc/nurse at each visit that we are not finding out. If there were an issue, we would by all means understand and be elated to find out what we are having. I guess what I meant by the surprise nobody can spoil is that it's one I can't open a corner and peek or blurt out to someone else! :-)

mountainsmama · September 2015

I think we are going to wait to find out. I definitely don't want to know now, maybe in a few months I'll be dying to know. I want to do a gender neutral nursery theme anyway, and this way if it's a girl we won't get a million pink things haha.

MamaRoni · September 2015

I'm way too impatient to wait! Lol.
I have 4 boys already so boys are what I do best

I'll be shocked shocked if it's a girl!

littleredx2 · September 2015

We are still unsure. We found out at the anatomy scan with our oldest 2 guys but were team green with DS3. Both had there own pros and cons for us so we can't decide which to do this time. It may be a game time decision for us.

PeggyOlsonFTW · September 2015

The phrase "Team Yellow" reminds me of pee.

MrsCayEye · September 2015

We didn't find out with DS and we won't with this one either. At my hospital they don't put it in the chart after the anatomy scan if you don't find out, so your doctor can't accidentally ruin it at subsequent appointments.

mojomama6 · September 2015

I've always gone to the same center for ultrasounds (even with different care providers), and if you don't want to find out, the tech doesn't even look. Unless genetic counseling puts you at risk of a disorder, they don't see it as important.
Anyway.
Team green, forever! I knew with my first two, but the other three have been a surprise, and I really have a strong preference for that moment after the birth. I asked that nobody announce the sex before I was ready to see myself, and honestly, I didn't even care what they were in that moment they were born. Fingers and toes were way more important than penis or vagina!

I am sooooooo bad at keeping a secret! I would end up telling him or starting to buy things for the baby and he would figure it out.

Muggle lover · September 2015

We will not be finding out. Mostly because we like the idea of being surprised in the delivery room and only a little because my sister had told me we just have to find out.

Ready4theParty · September 2015

We are going to find out. DH really wants a boy. With this pregnancy everything is opposite than it was with DD, DH swears this is a boy...I want to laugh if he ends up in a house full of girls-and go shopping for boy stuff.

helleebellee · September 2015

I'm on the fence. I have no baby stuff and need to buy everything . But everything I like is more neutral, so it doesn't really matter, I guess. I love being surprised, so I might just stick with it.

Mallory15 · September 2015

I have a boy and a girl and we found out with both of them so we feel like it'll be fun to have it be a surprise this time. I am also VERY type A, so hope I can last. I am already looking at nursery stuff and struggling finding something I like... I have so much stuff from the other two, that I'm trying not to go too overboard!!!

jenniferamcooper · September 2015

We were team green (or yellow??) with our first. It was mostly because we wanted gender neutral items because we knew we wanted 2-3. I don't see the harm in a little boy using a pink exosaucer but I hate the idea of just having coloured stuff just because it's one gender. It's always been a pet peeve of mine.

I don't want to find out this time but hubby does. He's being practical. We live in a 2 bedroom downtown flat (not a lot of storage) so if it's a girl then we can get rid of all our baby boy things (all 7 Tupperware boxes of clothes) and make room for girl stuff. Not to mention my hubby will be prepping for his PhD defence and finishing writing around the time baby is born, so he said the least amount of surprises and the most amount of planning would be good for him.

What would you all do??

erind228 · September 2015

We aren't finding out. We did with our first two, but once we had one of each we were prepared for whatever. It was fun waiting with our third, so we are doing it again.

DanelleJo · October 2015

I'm trying to convince my husband to wait. It's our first child and he just really wants to know, but I'm planning on doing either classic pooh bear or Peter rabbit in the nursery so it's all gender neutral already. I just think it would be very exciting to be able to announce its a boy or it's a girl instead of already having shared their name and gender and just saying how long and how much s/he weighed. I'm also very anti frilly foo foo for girls, so if we don't know it's a girl until she's born I won't have so much frilly stuff and just the bare basic sleepers, onesies and socks that I really need.

cchild101010 · October 2015

We are team green/yellow! We did that with our first and it was the best surprise! I always tell people they should wait - it's the best surprise ever. We could have found out at 10 weeks

kaylap58 · October 2015

Team yellow! Neither of us have any interest in finding out, and our mothers are DYING. But I love surprises!!
