Well, I can't answer your question but we found out the first time and we're team green this time around! I already can't wait to find out the gender and I'm not due until March!

Re: Moms of 2+ who were both team green and found out....
I only went team green. I have to say it is so exciting. Everyone making guesses etc.
My sis is now in labor and is team green. We are all dying to hear if it is a boy or a girl.
I am also on baby #2. It will be another Csection. I feel now i will already know the day the baby is born i want at least the surprise of if it will be a boy or a girl. Instead of knowing date, gender, name and nearly the exact time!! Only thing left would be size.

Re: Moms of 2+ who were both team green and found out....
I love the team green surprise! We always said that the 1st time would be team green and that we would find out after, but we have since changed our minds and we're def staying team green.
IMO it makes the labor even more exciting! Obvi having a baby is exciting enough, but it just adds something extra to the whole day.

I dunno ... I'm pretty excited about seeing what my baby looks like.

Re: Moms of 2+ who were both team green and found out....
We found out with the first 3 babies. Decided to stay team green with #4. Most amazing experience ever. Wouldn't trade it for the world and I wish I did it with the first 3! I only stayed team green because DH always wanted to do it and after finding out with the first 3 I thought he deserved it. Our next baby will be team green too.

Re: Moms of 2+ who were both team green and found out....
I wish I could answer this properly. Unfortunately, I had a c-section with my first and I was pretty out of it (the original anesthesia didn't work so they injected something else that made me really woozy) so the moment was kind of hazy for me
I found out for my 2nd- but I wish I hadn't.

I was team green for #1 and found out for #2. For me, they were both equally exciting. And I LOVED being able to plan with the 2nd one instead of doing everything gender neutral.

Re: Moms of 2+ who were both team green and found out....
We found out the first two and were team green for our 3rd.
Each time was special, none moreso than the others. We already had a girl and a boy so it really did not matter what the last was from a clothing standpoint.
I pressured my husband into being team green because a) I wanted another girl too much and needed to really focus on having a healthy child not a girl or boy and 2) I wanted this pregnancy to be special for a reason all to itself. As I said, I found out with the first 2 so this was ta moment hat was just for Sassy (Aka Alexandra).As the 3rd kid she doesn't have many of those
You can't go wrong either way. Neither is more special than the other. Just different.

I was team green for DS, it was the greatest experience. DH was so proud to be the one to go out into the waiting room and tell our parents and siblings that it was a boy. He also loved being the one to text the gender to all of our friends and extended family waiting to hear the news. I am 12 weeks PG with # 2 and we are leaning towards staying team green. However, I am afraid that I will cave at my 20 week ultrasound and ask!

Re: Moms of 2+ who were both team green and found out....
I was team green with my first and wanted to be team green for my 2nd. With my 2nd, someone slipped and we asked them to confirm the sex. It was nice knowing and being able to plan, but, the suspense (and keeping everyone else in suspense) of being team green is awesome.
I also liked that DH got to go to the waiting room and announce it to everyone who was waiting.
