  • Sammy good luck, hope you see Holly soon.

    Labour vibes to other ladies that need them xx

    DP I wanted Rose if bump was a girl, but couldn't have Isla as guy at work has that name!! I also was thinking of William but couldn't do Benjamin as is name of my ex!! DH's only suggestion has been Horatio - could you imagine and his surname begins with a H.

    More baby news my end as my cousin has annouced she is 12 weeks pregnant and due mid Jan, so all 4 cousins in our family will have LOs by then!

    :eek: there is a GUY at your work called Isla?? I thought it was only a girls' name!!!

    Love Rose as well but our surname starts with S so think it sounds wrong having the two Ss next to each other... do still like Rosie and so does DH so we may make a last minute change... can you tell we are kind of hoping it is a girl now?!

    There is so much to consider with names, it's so hard!!

    That's so nice about your family - we are the first of our generation in our families to have a baby and I'm hoping the others don't wait too long, would be nice for ours to have some cousins its own age!

    DP I really like that girls name, yes it is a girls name lol. I really don't like rose, can not stand it but I think it sounds lovely with isla in front, its weird how if you get the right combination it makes it sound so much better.

    I think OH is set on amelia for a girl but keeps forgetting what we picked for a boy so that may change. I think its a girl anyway but we'll see.

    Courgette I carried my girl like the old wives tales and my boy was all bump in the front, so I can't help but think there is some truth to the rumours, doesn't mean its right for everyone though.

    Also on the names OH tried to get me to have the middle name lorraine the other day. It is MIL name and he thought it would be nice for her. I can see that but I just don't think it goes with amelia and don't really like it. I said she could have my middle name instead, DS has OH middle name and it is still a compliment to your parents that you like the name they choose.

    Good luck sammy and labour vibes to those ready to pop!;):D

    Names *sigh* - mine isn't having one.

    Got midwife later. Going to beg for pain relief NOW cos bean is sticking his devil horns right in my ribs, side and back and it's soooo painful!

    Haircut as well this afternoon. Although it hasn't seemed to of grown much during pregnancy?? It normally grows really quickly.

    Emsy if your a lurking... I somehow ended up on page 1900something on the Arms last night (I was bored, hot etc whilst the boys were playing their online games) and I came across a thread from 2007 (:eek::rotfl:) where you weren't very happy with me or blowingbubbles due to us pretending to be engaged before we met!!!:p:rotfl:Isn't it funny how things turn out?!:)

    I know a boy called Corin and have heard of it as a girls name. So I think it's unisex. Like Jordan, my mate has a girl called Jordan so that's a unisex name.

    Awww crap, I wondered why I only recognised Krystal.... I'm on the wrong thread.

    How are you guys? Any more scan pics to feel envious of? Also I have just found out that the company healtcare scheme I am on also covers ultrasounds so I am going to see if that includes a 4d scan :money:
