So we went neutral, which I would have done anyway. I've never been a girly girl or into pink and frills so I knew if LO was a girl I would be ok with blues and greens. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-ever-3#post-808683 Sat, 25 May 2013 09:48:05 +0000 Anagram 808683@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Sugar.Biscuit: there's an ap for iPhones/iPads called Collage. It's free, and there are similar apps for androids. It just lets you add pics you already saved, move and resize them, etc. </p> <p>I really needed the visual because our nursery will also be our guest room and we have bedding for that room that is less than a yer old, so DH nixed the idea of brand new bedding to go with the crib bedding I liked best before (the big top circus set on Land do Nod--- which is also not girls, but has lots of primary colors). Once I realized that would clash with our existing guest bedding, I started searching for crib sets to match the tape/gray/teal/aqua theme.</p> <p>Once it looked cute together, it made me less sad about not getting the Big Top set. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-ever-3#post-808618 Sat, 25 May 2013 08:35:46 +0000 lilteacherbee 808618@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Before I got pregnant, I wanted a girl. We miscarried and later found out she was a girl, so I think of her as my "angel daughter." This time, I didn't really care, I just wanted a healthy baby. I am soooo thrilled that we're having a boy!! I picked out the nursery theme before knowing the gender and it doesn't have any pink. Too much pink doesn't appeal to me! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-ever-3#post-808578 Sat, 25 May 2013 07:52:17 +0000 Sugar.Biscuit 808578@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@highwire: I love the pictures above the crib &amp; the rocker is awesome, it looks so comfy! I suck at putting stuff together so hopefully the MIL will help me.</p> <p>@Anagram: Love this look. I think I may have pinned the bottom two rooms. How did you do your inspiration board?</p> <p>Maybe it was the amount of pink in some of these rooms. I found this room on houzz.com (the picture) to be just the right amount &amp; color of pink.</p> <p>This I find to be to much.<br /> <a href="http://www.houzz.com/photos/654750/Italian-Style-in-Newport-Coast--California-traditional-kids-orange-county" rel="nofollow">http://www.houzz.com/photos/654750/Italian-Style-in-Newport-Coast--California-traditional-kids-orange-county</a> </p> [attach=2642/13/mncuf6.406x406.451a0a2274acf36ba4156cac433d32b9.jpg] https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-ever-3#post-808554 Sat, 25 May 2013 07:16:44 +0000 ladybee 808554@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Sugar.Biscuit: that is exactly how I felt! After a mc, and IF drugs I wanted a baby. I didn't care which gender but DH still wanted a boy so I think that changed my wants. Plus I want a girl one day and we will probably have 2-3 kids so there is still a chance :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-ever-3#post-808551 Sat, 25 May 2013 07:14:16 +0000 Sugar.Biscuit 808551@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@ladybee: DH wants a boy &amp; I think its my desire to please him that maybe shifting my preference. When it comes down to it we both just want a healthy baby. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-ever-3#post-808549 Sat, 25 May 2013 07:04:55 +0000 ladybee 808549@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Sugar.Biscuit: I was the same way. I wanted a girl so bad until I got pregnant, then all I wanted to look at was boy things. The Chinese chart said girl for me but two scans have said boy so!? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-ever-3#post-808545 Sat, 25 May 2013 07:03:35 +0000 ladybee 808545@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@septemberlove: I was the same way. Up till getting pregnant I desperately wanted a girl. For some reason at our scan I cried I was so happy he's a boy. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-ever-3#post-808467 Sat, 25 May 2013 02:01:16 +0000 Bao 808467@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We have a girl and her room has no pink. It's gray with black furniture and purple curtains. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-ever-3#post-808456 Sat, 25 May 2013 00:27:24 +0000 googly-eyes 808456@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Sugar.Biscuit: I guess I kind of did but overall I didn't really have a preference. I have a girl and her room does have some pink but its more yellow. And she wears all the colors! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-ever-3#post-808453 Sat, 25 May 2013 00:11:34 +0000 lomom 808453@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yeah I thought I wanted a girl but the day of the anatomy scan I was hoping for a boy so badly. </p> <p>We have a boy and I wouldn't trade him for anything! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-ever-3#post-808449 Sat, 25 May 2013 00:03:37 +0000 CupQuakeWalk 808449@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@highwire: love that!!

The sight of pink is just yucky right now. I look at it and think Ewww. I have always wanted a little girl so this is throwing me off a bit. I'm warming up to the idea of having a boy &amp; currently have more boy nurseries pinned. </p>
