It was an awesome moment right after birth, and I'm very glad I waited. I will not be TG again though! Once is enough for me :) I'll be finding out for future babies for sure! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/will-you-be-team-green-for-your-second-child#post-791033 Fri, 17 May 2013 11:23:18 +0000 FarmWifeGina 791033@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We were Team Green for #1 and #2, a boy and then a girl, and now that we have one of each, I want to find out with #3, just to experience it that way too. And if we go for #4, it will kind of depend on how I feel about finding out this time as whether or not we will be Team Green then or not. I really loved being Team Green, it was really amazing to have that anticipation, but, yeah, I want to see how it is to find out too. And it will make bedroom rearranging a little easier too. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/will-you-be-team-green-for-your-second-child#post-791018 Fri, 17 May 2013 11:19:52 +0000 PrincessBaby 791018@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Hell no! I hate anticipation of a surprise! The only way I could handle TG is if I did not know I was pregnant until I delivered!</p> <p>My birth experience was so amazing, I really dont think finding out she was a girl when she was born would have made it any better:) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/will-you-be-team-green-for-your-second-child#post-791007 Fri, 17 May 2013 11:16:29 +0000 googly-eyes 791007@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@T.H.O.U.: I just think it would be fun to wait! I'd like another girl but I'd also be happy to have a boy and experience that...so in essence I don't care much about the gender, I know I'd be happy with either. As far as gear and clothes go, I'd just use some of dd's gear and if it's much further in between kids I'd just hold off on buying a lot of stuff. It can happen from my hospital bed if necessary..amazon is awesome. :) And I figure that since I have dd to keep me busy there will be less temptation! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/will-you-be-team-green-for-your-second-child#post-788556 Thu, 16 May 2013 19:16:21 +0000 chopsuey 788556@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No, we wanted to know both times! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/will-you-be-team-green-for-your-second-child#post-788553 Thu, 16 May 2013 19:15:47 +0000 petunia354 788553@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Nope! Didn't work out how we imagined it would for our first child so we'll find out for future LO's. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/will-you-be-team-green-for-your-second-child#post-788521 Thu, 16 May 2013 19:11:48 +0000 yin 788521@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I considered being on team green for my second, but I'm just too curious. Knowing will help me plan and get ready. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/will-you-be-team-green-for-your-second-child#post-788508 Thu, 16 May 2013 19:08:42 +0000 GrapeCrush 788508@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We are not. If we have a third(not planning on it) I'd like to be team green since we are going to have one of each </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/will-you-be-team-green-for-your-second-child#post-787582 Thu, 16 May 2013 16:03:19 +0000 Smurfette 787582@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Nope! Want to know again. Too much of a planner. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/will-you-be-team-green-for-your-second-child#post-787567 Thu, 16 May 2013 16:00:43 +0000 Pepper 787567@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Not possible - I'm not a fan of surprises! I would neeeed to know. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/will-you-be-team-green-for-your-second-child#post-787556 Thu, 16 May 2013 15:59:17 +0000 cheert16 787556@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Nope- I just can't wait that long!!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/will-you-be-team-green-for-your-second-child#post-787549 Thu, 16 May 2013 15:58:52 +0000 kjpugs 787549@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@T.H.O.U.: I totally agree/get it! That's part of the reason we found out early... I was FREAKING OUT about the gender. It's been nice to have time to process it! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/will-you-be-team-green-for-your-second-child#post-787545 Thu, 16 May 2013 15:58:18 +0000 MsMini 787545@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We will definitely be TG again for our second (and third) babies! I love being team green. When people say they "need to plan" for the sex of the baby, I truly don't understand what needs to be planned! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/will-you-be-team-green-for-your-second-child#post-787516 Thu, 16 May 2013 15:54:40 +0000 MamaMoose 787516@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We were TG with number one and we will be again for number two. That moment in the delivery room was TOTALLY worth it. I don't really see the need for knowing whether or not to buy additional stuff if the baby is opposite of your first. It's not any different than preparing for your first when you don't know the gender. We already have tons of gender neutral stuff that we can use right off the bat, and we'll have plenty of time to get additional clothes if our second is a boy. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/will-you-be-team-green-for-your-second-child#post-787489 Thu, 16 May 2013 15:50:45 +0000 Alivoo01 787489@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I don't think so. We're wanting one of each, and we got a son the first round, so we're hoping to have a daughter next. Plus, both sides of the family wants a girl so we definitely want to know! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/will-you-be-team-green-for-your-second-child#post-787360 Thu, 16 May 2013 15:24:21 +0000 Rainbow Sprinkles 787360@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@rahlyrah: haha I'm sure your guess will be correct! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/will-you-be-team-green-for-your-second-child#post-787341 Thu, 16 May 2013 15:20:03 +0000 T.H.O.U. 787341@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@googly-eyes: Ooooh I would love to hear your reasonings! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/will-you-be-team-green-for-your-second-child#post-787337 Thu, 16 May 2013 15:19:48 +0000 T.H.O.U. 787337@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@kjpugs: Yes this is where I am at too. </p> <p>Here is my list of why I would like to find out this time: </p> <p>1. To narrow down the list of names we have to come up with. Coming up with multiple is hard! </p> <p>2. To get her excited about a baby brother or sister. </p> <p>3. To supplement clothing/gear if its the opposite sex. Although like others have said, we will survive just fine if this ones a boy. </p> <p>4. To maybe help DH with gender disappointment if its another girl. He says he'd be ok with two girls, but I think he may like the time to adjust to the idea. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/will-you-be-team-green-for-your-second-child#post-787314 Thu, 16 May 2013 15:17:23 +0000 googly-eyes 787314@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yup! But I wasn't for #1! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/will-you-be-team-green-for-your-second-child#post-787297 Thu, 16 May 2013 15:15:22 +0000 Ra 787297@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Foodnerd81: I'm such a planner though! It might drive me crazy but I'd love to try :)</p> <p>@Rainbow Sprinkles: Ah! Did you announce the sex yet? Although I can guess based on the trend of baby name posts... :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/will-you-be-team-green-for-your-second-child#post-787285 Thu, 16 May 2013 15:13:56 +0000 Foodnerd81 787285@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@rahlyrah: I just don't find it so suspenseful, I guess. I know it's a baby! Yes, I'm very curious if it is a boy or girl, but it's all the same in the beginning-- keep them alive and happy! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/will-you-be-team-green-for-your-second-child#post-787277 Thu, 16 May 2013 15:13:06 +0000 Rainbow Sprinkles 787277@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Nope! We already know the sex! I could never stand the anticipation... I like to plan ahead and decorate the nursery either BOY or GIRL. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/will-you-be-team-green-for-your-second-child#post-787273 Thu, 16 May 2013 15:12:28 +0000 Foodnerd81 787273@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I am currently team green with our first and I love it! But, depending how DH feels after this LO is born, if he really wanted to find out for the second, I might let him have it. He would have preferred to find out on this one, but I am the one making us wait, so I guess it would be fair. </p> <p>But maybe he will love the surprise so much that we wait for all of them </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/will-you-be-team-green-for-your-second-child#post-787263 Thu, 16 May 2013 15:11:21 +0000 kjpugs 787263@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think it makes sense for #1! I think #2 though it's tough because you don't know if you need to supplement clothes if you have a baby of the opposite gender as your first. I was too excited with #1 to not find out (18 1/2 weeks now) and with #2 we'll find out, if we have one of each though we agreed it would be fun to not find out. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/will-you-be-team-green-for-your-second-child#post-787252 Thu, 16 May 2013 15:09:56 +0000 Ra 787252@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I don't think we will have a second, but if we do I think it would be fun to be team green. We found out with this LO, and I honestly don't know if I could live with the suspense, but I like the idea of it! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/will-you-be-team-green-for-your-second-child#post-787242 Thu, 16 May 2013 15:08:38 +0000 ShootingStar 787242@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Nope, I have a serious gender preference for #2 so there's no way I could wait. And I'd be devastated to go all that time and then end up without the gender I'd like.</p> <p>I really liked knowing at 11.5 weeks this time. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/will-you-be-team-green-for-your-second-child#post-787173 Thu, 16 May 2013 14:54:49 +0000 autumnlove 787173@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I tried for #2 but we failed. We might try to be TG if we have another child. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/will-you-be-team-green-for-your-second-child#post-787163 Thu, 16 May 2013 14:53:15 +0000 Mrs. Yoyo 787163@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@T.H.O.U.: No. Because I knew I was going to need time to adjust if we were having a boy, since I always envisioned a girl. And I was really grateful to have that time, and then get excited again. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/will-you-be-team-green-for-your-second-child#post-787133 Thu, 16 May 2013 14:49:21 +0000 T.H.O.U. 787133@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Yoyo: Were you TG for your first? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/will-you-be-team-green-for-your-second-child#post-787122 Thu, 16 May 2013 14:47:43 +0000 Mrs. Grizzly Bear 787122@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We were Team Green both times. Will probably be TG for the third one if we decide to have three </p>
