2010 pregnancy/baby thread

Here I am at 32 weeks. The picture was taken on my cell phone so the quality is not that great. Any guesses on what baby is?

You look great! I'm going to guess boy... no real reason, just a guess! Are you waiting to buy clothes or going with gender neutral? I've noticed the gender neutral stuff is harder to find. Nearly everything is either blue or pink!

Are you waiting to buy clothes or going with gender neutral?

I have quite a bit of clothes already as my SIL had a baby in October (a boy) so she has given me his clothes he has outgrown already. Albeit there is a lot of blue clothes I have some that can go for girl too (beige/brown, yellow, red, orange). I have purchased some myself as well, usually yellow, green, beige or white. I bought a little girl outfit this past weekend, I told hubby I needed something definitely girl to bring her home in. I figure everyone will be so excited once we have the baby they will get clothes then, especially if it's a girl since we haven't had a girl in the family since I was born.

Doesn't it get irritating when people do that? My husband and I were in the elevator at the hospital, leaving my ob/gyn's office when I was right around the due date with my daughter. We knew she was a girl, and there was some woman in the elevator who was convinced I was having a boy. Um, no...

It does get irritating, hubby and I have a good laugh about it. I would think knowing the sex and having people tell you differently has got to be worse than us just not knowing. My SIL had a boy and she knew it and so did some others but some would still tell her she was having a girl, ummm she could see his "bits" on the sonogram pic.

The matter of fact tone and 100% sure is what is irritating, I would think if they were that good people would be seeking them out for their thoughts.
