The California mom-of-three credited with having one of the first headline-making gender reveal parties has since had a change of heart about the trend.
Gender reveals -- at which a parent or parents reveal the sex of their unborn baby -- have become as common as baby showers in the last decade, with each one seemingly more elaborate than the next.
"Who cares what gender the baby is?," Karvunidis wrote."I did at the time because we didn't live in 2019 and didn't know what we know now - that assigning focus on gender at birth leaves out so much of their potential and talents that have nothing to do with what's between their legs.""PLOT TWIST, the world's first gender-reveal party baby is a girl who wears suits!," she wrote.
Karvunidis recalled that she first wrote about her gender reveal party for Bianca on her blog and it was then featured in"The Bump" magazine. This month, Pretty Little Liars" star Shay Mitchell revealed her baby's sex with the help of Power Rangers characters. Mitchell's subsequent YouTube video of the gender reveal has more than six million views.
"The best part of this is the lesson that says it’s OKAY to behave one way until you know better. It doesn’t matter what we did in the past. We learn, we grow, we change our ways. Thank you for being brave enough to do exactly that," wrote one commenter. "My wife and I just had a gender reveal because we wanted to ... your opinion is your own. We did it to bring family and friends together and celebrate my future child. I will love my child no matter what. That being said... I am having a girl. Human DNA states that. Whatever happens after is up to her. Don't judge other people for what they believe. I will do the same," wrote one commenter.
