To get annoyed (a bit) that everyone think dd is a boy...

[KeepOnKeepingOnAndOnAndOnAndOn]

... Admittedly I do not always dress her in head to toe pink shudders but she does have a pink - lined pram and is often in a dress of some sort. She is 1, but has very little hair (bless her) its beautiful white blonde and she is a beautiful baby obviously but I do understand lack of hair makes one assume - boy.

As I stated though, i dress her in fairly girly hear most of the time and she is in a pink pram. I don't care when people ask how old is he? But then when I correct them they get mortified with embarrasses me. I do it politely and sometimes not at all.

I just get frustrated as she is in girls clothes in a pink pram- wtf? I they just took one second to look a little closer than her head! Esspecially if they want to take the time to comment.

AIBU? Maybe I am being a but pfb ...

Ps I am not resorting to hair band, ear peircing or hair clips!

I find brunette babies with visible hair more attractive, not a fan of the bald blonde look (sorry!).

Wtf?!

My ds looks like a boy regardless of the colour we dress him in, I think he has quite a masculin face looks like grant mitchell so even in pink/purple people don't often call him a girl.

I can see how a girl with a similar face would cause confusion!

People still think my DD is a boy and she's nearly 7, and most girlie little girl you'd find.

Because of course, we all let little boys dress in sparkly ballerina dresses dont we.

Yup ikea - he defo looks like a boy - my eldest is the same. When he was a baby I bought a hat for a niece who was only 2 weeks older, so I tried an obviously girls hat on him for size and he looked like a boy wearing a girls hat - he had a boys face and still does :)

Use pink shoes if you're really annoyed.

Dd does wear pink / purple / red shoes??

[KeepOnKeepingOnAndOnAndOnAndOn]

Soon to be slender- your soon is beautiful. What a handsome young man he will be :)

[KeepOnKeepingOnAndOnAndOnAndOn]

IKEA your so is adorable and deffo a boyish boy :)

"Not a fan of the bald, blonde look."

Jesus. I ain't a fan of judging a baby on it's appearance !? Strange post, indeed...

[ikeaismylocal]

Ds really looks like dp, dp has 3 sisters and they all have the same masculin face, I think if our next baby is a girl she will probably also look like a boy when she is a baby/small child.

[soontobeslendergirl]

Its hard to get a picture nowadays but I think he is definitely a boy now

[soontobeslendergirl]

Thanks all, and I agree Ikea - adorable as will be any similar looking sisters :)

[KeepOnKeepingOnAndOnAndOnAndOn]

Yeh dd does look lots like my brother and my dad (oddly enough) and also a lot like dp too. But mainly I get told she looks like me!? I must look rather manish (though I cant really see how as I have a feminine face and long hair etc)

[KeepOnKeepingOnAndOnAndOnAndOn]

Aww he is all boy now, slender.

[soontobeslendergirl]

...and he is hiding those shapely brows :)

My DS2 used to have two lovely eyebrows but now he is 20 he has just the one

My boy was often taken for a girl. I agree that people often use whichever they have. So I have a boy and find myself saying he without thinking. If it makes you feel better, it will stop once they become a little person actually walking around in their clothes rather than a babe in arms.
