[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don’t understand this logic that it “helps with names.” it’s not like there are a million outcomes to prepare for? Pick a name for a girl and a name for a boy and be done. [/quote]

Some people agonize over names or struggle to agree with their partner. It's easier to do this just once instead of twice.

But also I think it's nice to have the name picked out before the baby is born. I liked talking to the baby in utero using the name. It made it feel like we were already friends by the time the birth happened.[/quote]

Right, like your friend your son or daughter. The one you’d already named.

I found the opposite/ I wanted to get to know my baby without assigning gender norms to them even in utero. It was such a seeet time where I was the only one who “knew” them in feeling their impact on by body from near conception to feeling their kicks to being their partner in delivering them safely.

I found it to be a sweet bond without assigning gender norms to a baby who was just mine to love, before the world threw its pink or blue and various associated assumptions at them upon birth. [/quote]
