@mrs_sheddy Perhaps in addition to a poll, everyone remember to update the spreadsheet with boy/girl info as you find out! We could probably shade those cells in the cliched blue/pink fashion to provide another visual of how things are falling out.
I don't think that we need a poll or thread. I agree that everyone should update the spreadsheet and people and look there to see what everyone is happening.

I agree that we should update the spreadsheet. It's true that it doesn't cooperate with the app, so you'll need to login on a computer. If anyone is still having trouble, can always comment and we can add them. I think the spreadsheet needs some updating as it is... I don't think everyone is actually on it!

@ziggymama06 I was noticing that, too. Some frequent posters here are missing (which is totally fine if by choice) and then there's a solid chunk of the spreadsheet that never stick around. We'll probably want to do a cleanup pass/purge at some point here in the next few months.
Yes we def need a spreadsheet update! Maybe we could do a check in post where people have a week or so to like or comment on the check in post to notify they are still around and everyone else would be removed?
Ok, so I did what @ziggymama06 and did my whole line. I changed to a lighter blue Bc you couldn’t read The info easily with the royal blue. Or maybe it’s just my old eyes 😂
@maelove +1 for updating the spreadsheet! When I looked back at it earlier today, I was like, "Wow! Where did some of these people even go?" Makes sense to do some spring cleaning!
My Dr finally called me with the NIPT results (apparently someone had filed them in the wrong spot so they didn't even know they had them... good thing I pestered) and I'm having a boy! I'm simultaneously excited but I also feel a little sad for DD that she won't have a sister. DH's older sister is 2 years older than him and they're pretty close, but I think there is something special about having a sister so close in age (my older sister and I are just under 3 years apart). Also, I won't be able to use all my cute girl clothes again. Am I crazy or is this a totally boy dominated month? I'll have to check the spreadsheet.
I originally planned on just telling DH when I got the results but I am contemplating doing some kind of a more exciting reveal for him when he gets home from work this evening. Of course with preg-brain I have no ideas...
@hypermusic Congrats on the boy! It is a boy-heavy month. Glad we're updating the spreadsheet so the split of girl/boy will be apparent
I'm hoping at some point we can get a thread that does a fun check on accuracy of old-wives tales. I know they're hokey but I still like to see where people net out and if they are at all predictive or waaaay off mark.
@kgrgreen I think an old-wives tale thread would be interesting! For this and my previous pregnancy SO many of them were weirdly accurate. Also this is the second time the Chinese Gender Predictor has been correct for me. I'll have to wait and see if all this heartburn means a full head of hair on this baby too...
ETA: @hypermusic congrats on the boy! I stopped at the store to look for a cute little outfit to surprise H but they didn't have what I was looking for and I couldn't hold it in long enough to try another store lol. (He's a big sports fan and I wanted to get a little girls packer outfit or something).
@hypermusic Congratulations on your baby boy! Maybe a fun sports theme onesie or small soft ball depending upon the sport YH likes, if he's a sports guy? Or some blue balloons? Dress YD in something blue? Blue frosted cake, cupcakes, cookies, etc? Something to eat with blueberries? I'm not sure how much time you have to put something together. Enjoy sharing the news!!

@hypermusic congrats! This is the 2nd time it was correct for me too. It wont tell me what my daughter's was since the minimum age it lets you add is 18.

I have been MIA - busy with work and kiddos. Just got caught up and wow - lots of boys due in August! I had my anamoly scan this week and it was so hard to look away when the tech told me to. So badly wanted to sneak a peek but we are Team Green as this will be our last. For those finding out, I will live vicariously through you for the next few months ☺️
Another FFFC (on a Sunday) - pretty sure I’m not on the spreadsheet. I exclusively use the Bump on my phone so I’ve never been able to add myself to it. Whoops!
Congrats to everyone who found out the sex of their babies this week! So many boys! Makes me wonder if I’ll have a boy as well but I won’t be finding out until baby is born.
We found out a few weeks ago with the early blood test since I'm over 35 - it's a GIRL! We have one daughter and three boys now, so needless to say everyone is really stoked to have another baby sister.
This baby is a boy. I have a daughter and was hoping for another girl, I have a sister and really cherish my relationship with her and wanted that for my daughter. But interested in seeing the brother sister dynamic since I never had a brother. My daughter is excited just to have a sibling!
@klarrissa we’re in the same boat. I was really excited to give my daughter a sister, but it wasn’t meant to be. It stings more because this baby will likely be our last. I’m just hoping they’ll have a tight bond growing up.
Re: I'm here for the SEX!!!
As for boys, add one more! I guess I'm destined to be a boy mom 4 life!

Well...and I guess female intuition is never wrong. We are having a girl!
