Blue walls for a girl?

[Bathsheba]

I had pale blue soft furnishings in my room as a child... quilt cover, pillows, curtains etc. but my room was still girly. I had white furniture and it went well. I agree it's a lovely colour and much calmer than hot pink!

DH and I didn't know what DS was. But we painted the feature wall a royal blue, because it's pretty universal and I'm not much on pink anyway.

Turned out DS was a DS, but it wouldn't have bothered me either way.

I'm leaning towards a really soft powder blue for our nursery and we aren't going to find out what we're having.

If it's a boy then fine but if it's a girl then good too because I am not really into way too much girly girl things, so i think it would be a nice balance between all the girly things she will obviously have (if it's a she!) and the walls.

I don't see why the colour would matter at all, whether it's on the walls or a onesie. You don't choose your own clothes and home decorations based on whether they're "an appropriate colour for a woman," so why should anything beyond "does it look good?" be a consideration for a baby?

Keep it in perspective: the poor thing can't even control its own bowels, so it's got no place disapproving of your colour choices!

Hey
Our bubs is due in about 4 weeks, we also don't know what we are baking. The baby's room is aqua/green - but really came out more aqua and we love it. We have elephants all the way around and it is a very claming room to be in. I say go for it!!! If we have a girl I will add some pink blankets etc but not really too fussed! Goodluck!
