So I'm almost 30 weeks and we aren't finding out the sex of our baby, but our family and friends still try to make us feel guilty over it saying it's really hard to buy for a neutral baby. I really don't see why it's difficult, we've told them we don't need any clothing (we have lots that was given to us & we've bought the rest). My baby shower is next Saturday and now I'm worried people won't even look at my registry because buying for a neutral baby is 'boring' and most have said they want to wait until after baby is born so it can be gender specific. Anybody else dealt with this and did it effect the outcome of your baby shower?

for my baby shower no one even looked at my registry & there's plenty of other things baby needs that doesn't involve just clothes. Tell them to bring you diapers, wipes, bath stuff etc..! There's so much a baby needs that has nothing to do with gender lol.
I know alot of stores don't have one but there are still items I need they could get. like diapers, wipes, bath supplies, bottles, nursing supplies. I think they are all stuck inside this box and don't want to budge on thinking outside of it.
if we ever have a 3rd, we plan on not finding out the gender, I don't expect people to be happy with it, but I want that experience of the surprise, either way if they don't buy you anything clothes wise, the least they can do is diapers, and those help out tremendously, and then buy whatever they want after since that's the attitude they want to have, although it is kinda hard to find neutral stuff, without getting just plain white, I've found in most stores at least around me, don't have a neutral section. 😥
@qmama, it really hurts that we don't have the support we should have. This is probably the only baby we will ever have due to medical problems so we wanted to make it even more exciting by not finding out. I thought by now people would have accepted it and moved on from it, but they still comment on it all the time.
I've never had to deal with that but it sounds very unfair to you!
Yesterday I went out with my boyfriend went to watch a movie, me and him don't live together yet. but point is yesterday when he was dropping me off his like sleep over at my house witch the mom and dad lives. I said no,
his response was why is everyone deciding or making choices for you and their going to do the same with the baby, when I know that's not true. what he thinks is that my mom tells me not to sleep over. So he left all mad. and I felt in my heart that he went on and cheated on me...

Transgender children
So I just learned that in my kids school district (my kids aren't in school yet my oldest will be starting kindergarten next September) there are twin boys who identify as girls. They are 5 years old. What's your opinions on this matter given they are 5!!! I don't believe that at that age they really understand the whole thing. So the entire school had to take a course on how to handle transgender children. For example they can't say girls go this or boys do that. What are...

Thanks ladies. it just nice to have support. I've been fought on everything with this pregnancy because it's my first baby. people seem to think I'm an idiot and shouldn't get to choose.
