Interesting observation (re: team green)

[mommymachine]

Same. I want to be team green for number 6. I'm determined to be since it might be our last. However DH says no way he is going team green. So he we know, and I will not!

I know heaps of team green and its 50/50 pink and blue approx in my circle

^^Thats actually what the friend I was talking about in my earlier post did. Her husband has known all three times and she hasn't. And she has never been any the wiser, he must have a great poker face! He uses both gender pronouns all the time. And argues equally for names even though he doesn't have to. But it's still amazing to me!

I'm not finding this time. If It's a third boy I'll find out at birth!

You could be onto something with that idea It does seem to be a certain mindset who dont find out. Saying that the 2 times they asked and I didnt find out I had girls

I am definitely what you could class as part-crunchy - BF past a year, cloth nappies, HOME-EDUCATING but I've always wanted to find out the gender at 20 weeks. DH hasn't wanted to though, he's not crunchy at all. Ds2 forced us into team green as he gave NOTHING away at his 20 week scan. My cousin who has 2 girls has always found out as soon as she could way before the anomaly scan. I don't really think there's anything in it, tbh

I thought "team yellow" was not having any idea, but "team green" was if you thought you'd glimpsed a winky during a scan (without finding out gender) and suspected that your team yellow baby was a boy!

Sorry, no idea there. I only heard the term green when I first joined this site & have only recently heard of team yellow too. Either way ds2 was a surprise

I thought they were the same thing...I thought it was b/c gender neutral clothes are green or yellow?

[1+2+3boys]

I think they are the same but team green sounds cooler because it kind of rhymes. I think more people tend to buy yellow though. Actually if it were based on most common colours I'd call it team white! sorry, don't want to confuse anyone.

Does anyone know the actual definition of the term crunchy Mum or how it came about because I have always thought it a strange term? I am strongly into attachment parenting but I'm not overly into the organic stuff and cloth nappies like some seem to. I'd like to if I had time but I will worry about saving the earth later when I am not so tired! Is crunchy more eco Mum or AP mum or both?
