    H's coworker has a two year old girl - and they thought they were having a boy until, like, the last week! They had the baby shower and everything; his wife even washed all the boy clothes in a nesting frenzy! OMG, I can't imagine...I'm far too type-A to deal with something like that, hahaha!

  • Oh my gosh I couldn't even imagine!  I would need to know 100% before buying anything baby related.

  • That's especially weird because it's usually the other way around - you think you're getting a girl and then you get a boy.

    We will be finding out the gender of any future children, too.  What I've eyed so far (H gets mad at me for surfing around the Babies R Us website) is pretty gender neutral, but when it comes to clothes... I gotta know!  

    Oh well, that's a ways off.  We decided to postpone TTC an extra six months so we're back up to two years before we start to try.

  • When my sister was pg with her 2nd, I was convinced without a doubt that it was a girl. She was sick almost every day, and it was such a different pregnancy for her than her first (no sickness, no nothing). I was shocked when she told me they found out it was a boy. I was hoping the doctor was wrong and they'd give birth to a girl, but I love my little nephew. I loved him when I thought he'd be a girl and even more the day after he was born when I got to meet him :)

    We'll find out the gender, I think it's just easier to know when you're picking out decor and clothing and stuff. I don't necessarily want pink or blue, but I have different themes in mind that gender could influence. I would like to keep names as a surprise, though. I don't want to start getting embroidered or monogrammed stuff (not my style), and I don't want people throwing name suggestions and opinions at us left and right when the time comes.

    I like this.  I hadn't thought about it, but you're right -if you announce the name everyone will give you stuff with the name on it.  But I don't think that will stop people from giving you unwanted suggestions.

    we definitely want to keep the names a secret. While we don't want anything with the baby's name on it, we really just don't want opinions.

    As in opinions why they don't like the name. SIL/BIL announced their name before my neice was born, and a lot of the family flat out told them they didn't like it. ugh.

    This happened to my cousin...and it's exactly why we won't be sharing, either.

    I might share with you guys, though - but only if you promise to pretend to like the names even if you don't! ;)
