Morning (:
Posting in here as not sure where else it would fit.
I'm due first baby in November and the gender is a surprise.
One reason we chose not to find out the gender is we really are not fans of stereotyping genders in terms of colours / clothes etc in newborns, much prefer them in whites/greys/pastels etc until they are around 6 months. Our concern was people would buy all pink for a girl, all blue for boy etc.
With this in mind, when we announce babys arrival, or just before, we were considering putting up a little post/sharing a little poem that politely asks people not to gender buy. Sort of like "our little one is due any day, the gender is yet unknown but we are not a fan of pinks and blues anyway" (I'm rubbish at writing)
Is anyone good at poems etc that could help?
Thanks in advance x
