We were Team Green and I absolutely loved it! I'm a super anal type A planner, but I think because of that, I wanted to enjoy the one true surprise left in life. It was so much fun discussing our dreams and plans for the baby not knowing if it was going to be a boy or a girl. We loved the anticipation and excitement of not knowing whether we had a son or a daughter on the way but knowing we were going to be thrilled and excited to find out once LO arrived.
Personally, I don't like when people find out the gender, I just find it so anticlimactic. My brother found out with his baby and it was just like 'oh ok, that's nice', I just felt it really took away a lot of the excitement. As far as nurseries, I love gender neutral and think there are some really cute ideas out there. We did Peter Rabbit and it would have been great for either gender.
It's all just personal preference but I will continue to be Team Green for all future pregnancies.

We did both... found out for #1, Team Green for #2!
Finding out was really special with #1... It was also very awesome to find out at birth for #2. So glad I waited, but it was very hard at times! My hubby did know though for #2, so at least one of us could prepare (e.g. if it was a boy, he was in charge of ordering a new carseat in a boy pattern to be sent to his office so baby boy wouldn't have to go home in DD1's pink carseat, haha). It worked out very well though. Best surprise ever that we had another girl again!

We found out. I need something to look forward to halfway through the pregnancy.

We found out at the 19w ultrasound. Honestly, I feel like it's a surprise no matter when you find out. I think finding out also made everything more real. I know that we had made the right choice whenever DH looks at me with such excitement that we're having a boy. He absolutely would be just as excited if it were a girl but knowing has made him much more excited and involved.
