    Moneypuddle your skin gets extra sensitive in pregnancy too hun so it's probably not helped, hope it clears up soon though, and don't worry about work it can't be helped. xx

    Money puddle I've been off sick since last Wednesday caused by heat exhaustion and dehydration. I don't feel bad in the slightest. If I'm not up for work healthwise I'm going to hurt LO and that is FAR worse a prospect than letting work down.

    So, you just get yourself right.

    Thanks twinklie! I'm ashamed to be a bit of workaholic. Even now I'm sat at home thinking I could be re-sealing the tiles in the bathroom or sanding the kitchen tops! I find sitting down doing nothing just so boring, but know baby has to come first and I'll be back tomorrow!

    Am a bridesmaid this weekend as well, so NEED my face to go down or the bride will kill me! :eek:

    Kitten Aurora sounds lovely, although I'm sitting here trying to say it and I'm not sure I can. There are quite a few words I cannot get my tongue around tho. How do you say it? It's quite unusual too.

    (A-Roar-A) Could be shortened to Rory which is more unisex which I like.

    One of the issues is that it is the name of Sleeping Beauty and I can imagine jokes or 'she likes a little !!!!!' and that is just from us.:cool:

    Meant to add:

    Moneypuddle Hope you feel better soon, my skin has been really sensitive throughout pregnancy (have eczema) so can sympathise, might be worth a trip to the docs as they might be able to recommend alternative products that won't aggrevate your skin as much (((hugs))))

    Love the name Aurora Kitten it's beautiful :)

    Hey all, really hot here too although we have mirror film on the windows which helps keep it a little more bearable.

    My company have been really good which I was worried about however not sure if this is because I let it slip regularly in conversations that my FIL works for the tribunal service and my OH advises the ministers on the tribunal policy so they know that if they slip up I would have no problems taking things further.

    Opened up our baby name spreadsheet and like the name Aurora however think it might be open to bullying but can't see how. Any ideas on how it can be warped? Surname is Boyd.

    I really like Aurora, very pretty and unusual :) I met someone at a wedding last month who's little girls are called Athena and Sienna both of which I really liked but DH has vetoed as they don't go with our surname :o

    eeeessshh how hot is it :j

    Kitten, I dont think you can ever pick a name that wont be changed or made fun of by someone - all we've tried to do is make sure its not obviously daft (like Philip Philips from this season of American Idol :rotfl: ) I like Aurora :T we picked Elena for our girls name.

    We have 3 names, if anyone cares to give opinions :D my Fav is Blake, OH likes Caleb and Issac. We will pick 2 from these, our surname is Norman so not too worried - although I have said I prefer not to have Isaac Norman as in my head I hear Isaac Newton :cool:

    Im now starting to get a few pregnancy niggles, including heart palpitations which are starting to freak me out a little :( night time cramps and if one more person says to me "oooh not long now" I may well thump them :mad: especially when I say 16 weeks actually and they reply "oh" :mad:
    Bow Ties ARE cool :cool:

    I know your having a boy Mishka but I love Elena, it was one of the names I suggested to OH for a girl but he didn't like it and changed it to Alana cos he's stubborn. As for your boys names I like Caleb too it's really nice :) x
