Am I wrong for not wanting pink stuff for baby girl?

Question

I recently found out I’m having a girl. I’m not that typical girly girly mom. Already have a girl (4yrs old). Now my opinion why do girls have to be identified with just pink? So far making my registry looking at neutral colors I’ve fallen in love with a whole bunch of earthy colors salmon, sage, muster yellow, burgundy, shades of blues. They’re absolutely beautiful. With my oldest in the baby shower EVERYTHING pink I do get it they look adorable. But a rainbow has more than one color.

Answer

Love those colors too, don’t forget lavender and deep purple!!

Answer

I did a gender neutral registry because I hate all the gendered clothes, for boys and girls. I decided if I was having a girl I’m not telling a soul because pink and frilly is the last thing I want and I don’t want to have to make a bunch of returns 🤣🤣

Answer

My google history is literally “non frilly baby dresses” “baby girl outfits without bows” “baby outfits with no headband” and even “unisex dresses” 😂😂😂 
I love makeup and all things feminine but hate hate hate baby girl clothes! Especially being due in June, the summer clothes are worse!! I managed to find some red play suits and yellow rompers but honestly, I can’t even stand to look at headbands!!! I have a lot of grey and white stuff and fairly neutral where I can. You’re definitely not alone!

Answer

I HATE PINK. Gosh I have no desire to dress my girl in pink, until she’s older and says that’s what she wants. 
I am a first time mom and my side of the family knows how much I dislike the color... my husbands side unfortunately does not. At our gender reveal we talked about our nursery being yellow and my MIL went off about it’s a girl and the room should be pink. 🙄 I politely told her absolutely not and I don’t like pink. Then she threw a fit about me not liking pink and how she will only by our daughter pink things. 🤦🏼‍♀️

Answer

I'm in love with earthy colors and greens and vibrant yellows for my little one. But I've mostly gotten pink which kind of annoys me..

Answer

We painted the nursery blue, so everyone has assumed we know it's a boy. We wanted the nursery a light blue/grey color (with navy doors and white stars on the walls) either way! I don't know why it's such a foreign concept for people, but a lot of girls LOVE the color blue....so why is it only for boys? 
PS - just found out we're having a girl! 😍 I can't wait for people to ask me if we're gonna repaint. 😂

Answer

We did all gender neutral because not only did we not know the gender before birth but I wanted to be able to reuse for another baby easier regardless of the babies sex. If she wanted pink growing up we will get her whatever but right now pink and orange are her least favorite colors...and she hayes pink lol. She wants green anything and everything. There are lots of moms going away from pink and polka dots and frills and bows only for girls so you are not alone on it. Also big bonus is earth colors hide stains better most times. All those bright white and pink clothes take like 1 mistake and they are stained haha.

Answer

Gender neutral all the way for me too. I don't know what I'm having as baby didnt want to show us at the anatomy scan but have a strong feeling it's a girl. I was never a girly girl nor do I like wearing dresses. This baby will have some dresses(as they get older too) but alot of the clothes I have already are gender neutral or more leaning towards being 'boy' clothes. I love love love the beautiful earthy tones that all my local shops have been bringing out so baby will definitely wear those colors over pinks

Answer

I told my family I wanted to put on my baby shower invite, “no pink!” LOL I’ve always hated pink and also am loving all the earthy and neutral tones!

Answer

100% gender neutral here! I despise certain items/ colors being associated with a specific sex. I think it’s teaching a girl to be frilly and princess like and a boy to be more masculine. I hate gender norms and anything associated with them! I’m having a boy and his room so far is mustard yellow and gray. 😊
