Open Image ModalWe had a little girl and loved this decor! Plus, our next child, no matter the gender, will get plenty of use from it! (credit:April Dynarski)

Open Image ModalThis is one of the areas in our nursery. I chose the minty blue even before we knew we were having a boy. My main goal was to make a space that was fun. (credit:Leyda Vanessa Campbell-Mount)

Open Image ModalWhile the nursery for our daughter has a feminine flair, we definitely avoided all pinks/blues. Soft green, camel, black and white work well for either! (credit:Shannon D. Stabbert)

Open Image ModalWe didn't find out the sex. We went with a "worldy" theme; maps, globes, elephants, etc. (credit:Kady Randolph)

Open Image ModalWe went gender neutral because we wanted to be surprised (it's a girl). This is her "nursery nook" in our bedroom. (credit:Katrina Gordon)

Open Image ModalWe turned our already grey and yellow guest room into the nursery. It was all DIY with my 2 sons help. We ended up with a little girl! (credit:Amber Gabriel)

Open Image ModalWe were team green when we had our son. We went gender-neutral for the nursery and also wanted something that would grow with him. It made it easy for both kids to share a room after we had our daughter. (credit:Jessica Duff)

Open Image ModalWe didn't find out, but did green, brown, and white with giraffes. We had a girl and I just added a pink circular rug and a few little pink accents after she arrived. I loved it. (credit:Holly Jo Huttner)

Open Image ModalWe used yellow, green, white and brown in our son's nursery. We wanted colors that would work for future babies as well as our first. (credit:Katie Mitchell)

Open Image ModalThe room gets so much natural light, we decided to go with a calm, dark grey with little pops if color. The artwork is maps from kids books. It's my favorite room in the house! So peaceful. (credit:Marcy Holderman)

Open Image ModalWe went with a celestial theme, gold and midnight violet colors. My mother made the layout for us - it was very difficult to find anything celestial that wasn't all spaceships and rockets. We painted glow-in-the-dark constellations on the ceiling, which our 14-mo is just now starting to notice! (credit:Rebecca Shamblin)

Open Image Modal painted the walls myself. Wanted them to be perfect! Our theme was robots and started blending in steam punk pieces, rockets and outer space, and nerdy video game stuff like pics of space invaders even after knowing we were going to have a girl. She has the most feminine name, Eva Aurora, both family names. But we want her and her sibling to end up sharing the room for their first few years. So we want to keep it nerdy/geeky fun, like her parents. (credit:Jenni)

Open Image ModalWe didn't know the sex of our daughter before she was born so went with a gender neutral palette. (credit:Amanda)

Open Image ModalWe waited until our daughter was born on August 27, 2014 to find out her sex. We wanted to stay away from soft, muted tones, and opted for bright oranges and yellows, the focal point being the patterned wall we'd painted ourselves. (credit:Christine Mangiamele)

Open Image ModalWe did not find out the sex of our baby so gender neutral was a must for us. After our son was born however, we kept it exactly how it was because it just suited him. It wasn't over the top but it was perfect for what we needed. He is still in that room with the warm yellow walls and froggies all around, and he loves it! Now comes the hard part of transitioning him into a big boy bed! He is ready, mommy is not :-) (credit:Lindsey Burk)

Open Image ModalWe did not find out the gender of our now daughter, Aviva. We had a muralist come in and paint gender neutral nursery rhymes and had a store hold pink and blue sheets and diaper changing covers to accent the room once she was born. (credit:Pamela Bookbinder Clarke)
