You could use Cezanne at a push dizsie, but it depends on whether you liked the artist, and it's French rather than Italian too.

that sounds nice sexymouse. i also like luca. we have no Italian roots in us but we are also considering some italian names. i work with weird people. one woman not in my team was telling me horror stories about birth. i actually have a dry mouth.

Please don't be upset but Luca is too common for me... my OH has a very unusal (but awesome) name and mine isn't too popular so we want baby to have an uncommon name also

Sasan is too harsh sounding for me too but Cezanne could work ...now just to find an italian variant x

ignore her. If childbirth was that terrible and scary and evil then why do women go on to have more than one child.

Stupid people like to scare pregnant people, stupid people should pee off and not take pleasure in adding to an already anxious pregnant persons anxieties.

i know i kept telling her to keep shush and say something positive. imagine being told 'after you have been to the labour ward, you can lie naked on the road outside as all your dignity is out of the window'. she was giggling like mad! oh dear!

i think i will go out as she has kind of got on my nerves now lol

If I can't find a connection to Susan my middle name list looks likes this:
* Carmine
* Gabriele
* Valentino

What are your thoughts?? (You can be honest I won't cry!)

gosh dizsie sorry to hear about how you were treated. so stupid!!grrrr

emsaint, i wasnt on that bus (i was thinking where i have seen it though). But well done you for telling that guy where to go. what an idiot and inconsiderate fool! couldnt he really tell that you are pregnant? i have much ruder words for him but wont write them on here. I find a lot of people on the Croydon buses so rude. last week a woman was dying to get onto the bus and made sure she pushed me aside and then ended up draggng me with her and i asked her to calm down. what is wrong with them? Will they really die if they dont sit? some dont even have the common sense that there is a pregnant woman about. gosh...

i usually get on the 197 or 312 bus from east croydon station. we should all meet. i understand youare nearly there but maybe afterwards as there are so many of us around Croydon.

just had to force myself to have a shower lol. feel so lazy and groggy. the belly is aching again. ;( waiting for stupid washing to finish so hang it out and i bet when i do, it will start raining. lol

We should meet up, i could roll to Croydon at the moment:rotfl: and maybe all get on a bus together

It is true that you do forget the worst of it- I didn't have the best time of it and there were issues for my first, but I am due again in 8 weeks. If people want to know about giving birth, I do not try and scare them, but I think women shouldn't be coddled into thinking it will all be happy and lovely. For some it might be better than I had it, but it does hurt and I think it is better to be aware of that and not scared to death by it.

I remember it being completely awful at the time (clearly just my experience) but the details are lost. I was under no impression that it was going to be pleasant from the offset and I am viewing it the same way now, but the baby will be coming out one way or another and I intend relieving the hospital I end up in of as many drugs as I require to achieve that goal!

It is different for every woman anyway so what one person tells you isn't all that relevant really. Good for info though.

Also the men cannot do it for us, unfortunately, so that is the other reason we have to do it again if we want more than one child, even after a not so nice birth

ignore the silly cow Rups - some women are determined to make it a competition!

Not at all. I've only met him once . He's the only person I've met called that.
