I definitely thought this thread was for something else hahaha I’m team green. Or at least if we choose to find out, I won’t share it with people. We’re very much into gender neutrality.
We already have 1 boy and 1 girl so I’d love to be team green but hubby wants to find out. I’m fine either way. I have a gut feeling it’s a boy though. In the past when I’ve inquired about this blood test I was told it’s not covered by insurance and my doctor wouldn’t do it.

I ordered sneak peek for fun. Shipping delays mean it won't be here until Saturday at the earliest. My husband and I both leave Sunday morning for a work trip and the ILs are staying with our boys. We haven't told them yet. I really hope it shows Saturday so I can grab it before they come! Ugh. My gut is telling me boy. Ever since we found out our second was a boy I've just always pictured us with three little boys.
@bww_0331 I was just telling my mom that the cutest baby announcement is when it’s three of the same gender for a family and they use “tic tac toe three in a row!” hahaha
I would love to have a girl 💖 I'm only planning on birthing one child and we'll adopt them a sibling when they're past the baby phase, so I'll get a girl either way if I don't birth one now though. 😊
We did the MaterniT21 test at 9 weeks and found out we’re having our third baby girl! Now just preparing myself for all the “are you going to try again for a boy” comments. 🤦🏼♀️ Lol
@shelbielizabeth I don't know about you, but I hate those comments. Like people assume you're not happy with having all girls/boys and automatically assume you gotta try for another one to break the pattern.

@Tulips29 Yes! I would’ve been happy with whatever, but knowing we already have everything for a girl and that our current youngest and the new baby would be sharing a room for a long time I was leaning towards girl! Lol We got a ton of comments with just the two girls, especially from DHs parents, so I’m sure they’ll be coming again. I’ve only told my mom so far and one of the first things she said was “I’m so sorry you’re not getting a boy”.. I was like uhh I’m not sorry at all?!
@shelbielizabeth I have 3 DDs and a step daughter, since we’ve starting telling people I’m pregnant every person immediately makes some sort of comment about a boy. Why are people so hung up on it!

@marionberry19 NO! Ugh. I mailed them last Friday and they went from Iowa to Memphis (instead of San Diego?) and it's been floating between distribution centers in Memphis for 5 days. Super annoying. Probably won't even know until December at this rate with the holiday. Boo..
Sneak Peek results are back and I am SHOCKED. It says girl! I’ve had three boys pictured in my head so I was sure it was a boy. Obviously still could be since SP isn’t always reliable- but dang, shock to the system!
I’m secretly hoping for a girl for totally selfish reasons. I come from a family of all girls and DH comes from a family of two generations of all boys. My sister has had two girls and DH’s brother has had two boys. Not that this has anything to do with what sex we end up with but basically we’re competing to see who wins lol. Buuuut current plan is to be surprised so we won’t know until June.
We got our NIPT results last week but are waiting until tomorrow to have a gender reveal (we will be surprised with everyone else). I’ve never wanted to rush through Thanksgiving so badly in my life 🤣
peekaboo results are in and it’s a boy! I’m so excited, we have a toddler girl already and we are done after this new baby. This will be a totally new experience
@furmama2babymama did you just open the envelope with everyone else or do something else? I'd love to do something creative without knowing the gender myself and finding out with everyone else.

@Tulips29 we got a gender reveal balloon box from a party store and then my MIL’s neighbor opened the envelope and put the pink balloons in for us so we were all surprised. My mom was going to do it but she felt guilty knowing before everyone else 🤣
I did the SneakPeek test and it said boy, but I'm not convinced. Gut says girl and there is plenty of male DNA in my house to mess up the results (Husband, son, two male cats). Guess I just have to wait and see!
