Ugh! Yeah I had a similar thing with my SIL. She found out she was pregnant with her 2nd just a couple of weeks after I'd found out I was pregnant and announced it to us just a week after our miscarriage. >.< Needless to say, it was sooooo excruciating to try and be happy for them as everything went perfectly in their pregnancy and they gave birth just a few days after I was due. >.< I mean, on one hand, I'm thrilled that nothing went wrong for them, but on the other hand I was just heartbroken for me and my husband.

5 of them here, and omg yes it does! It doesn't help that I work in retail and alllllll I see most days is pregnant ladies, ladies with newborns, ladies with toddlers. >.<

BUT! I have a very good feeling about this one, and I'm bound and determined that he/she/them are going to stick!

Anyone thought of names yet?

I'm keeping a running list of names - started about 6 months before we started TTC

I should add Leanne27 to my signature as my official bump buddy.

Thanks Maze! Will add you also!

Oliver Tristan for a boy, that is a definite. Girls I am not as settled on, right now I really like Paige...but it is one of those names that I love the way it sounds and hate the way it looks. One that came to mind when I couldn't sleep last night was Caden or Caiden.

I know I definitely won't be giving up any names to my family beforehand. I also don't plan on finding out what I am having either. Surprises surprises galore!

*grin* Same here. We actually already have a girl's name and boy's name already picked out and ready to go. It'll be interesting to see if we stick with them or not! Though we've not changed our minds in 3 years.... sooo....

We like Isla for a girl, I like Toby for a boy but DH won't let me

Isla is beautiful! Goes nicely with Olivia too

Our friends sister just named their girl Isla so unfortunately it's a 'no go' for us, otherwise it would have been a serious contender!

I agree Isla is SO pretty. I love girls names that start with I. I really like the name Imogen but having said that years ago it already got stomped out as 'horrendous' by family and friends.

Love them both!!

OMG! You really don't want to know before hand? lol I'm such a control freak I guess, because I GOTTA know! :P

Our name for a girl is Leandra Mikaela and for a boy is James Henricus. My husband and I are both online gamers and met through one of those games. His character's name is James, and mine is Leandra.

The Mikaela is in honor of my dad (Michael) and the Henricus is in honor of my husband's dad!

Maze · Jan 30th, 2013, 10:17 AM

Yeah! I normally am too, but I found out with my other two and this is my last chance for it to be a surprise! I already have a boy and a girl so I'd be perfectly happy with either.

Your names are great, I really like Leandra.
