August '14 Sunflowers. 27 angels. 48 pink, 28 blue. 74 HERE!!

There's so much going on for me! I have my wedding on June 7th and I'm in my best friends wedding July 19th. So much going on!
 
Can I get your opinions please??!!?

About a week, maybe a week and a half ago, DH and I decided on a first name. It is early so we might change our minds, but for now this is the name we settled on... For a girl we like Charlotte Louise, for a boy we would use Charles and we aren't sure on a middle name yet. In either case we would call the baby Charlie. Last night all of a sudden it hit me out of the blue, my Aunt got a puppy this past Christmas and I am pretty sure she named him Charlie. I see this Aunt maybe 4 times a year, at most, and I am not sure if I will ever see her dog again.

Would you keep the name? Or would that be enough to make you change it? Our son's name is Jacob, Jacob and Charlie seem to just fit for us. And we have to be careful with our last name too... I don't think we are going to change it, but would that be weird??

Ahhhhhhh!
 
I would keep it! It turns out my grandmas great niece is named Scarlet and if it's a girl we are naming her Scarlet and honestly I have NEVER met this part of the family and I don't really care lol

I like the name and I think you should keep it!
 
I definitely think you like the name you should keep it :)

Well ladies, countdown begins for me. Our ultrasound got moved up from Saturday morning, to this Friday evening :happydance: @ 6:30 pm. So incredibly excited. I hope we will find out if we are having a little Sophia, or a little Connor.

That's so exciting, good luck! Do you have any intuition about whether you're having a boy or a girl?
 
I would keep it especially if you don't see you aunt much. I wanted to call DS Charlie but my DH nans dog was called Charlie and we see her every other week so we decided against it x

I have a huge intuition that I might be having a girl, but I don't know if it's just because both DH and I want a little girl, and the fact that we already have a boy. We will see. Also, Gavin says girl a lot. :)
 
KitteyKat, that is just like me! Not sure if it is actual intuition or just desire... our DS first said girl and now always says boy. I just want to be able to start decorating the nursery :rofl:

Thanks for the opinions ladies! My gut is telling me not to discard the name, I'm glad you agree. I was just worried it would be awkward and maybe someone would point out something I hadn't considered. But especially because we see them so infrequently and may never see the dog again... I would just rather not have a dog with the same name as my baby. Oh well! I guess someone else probably already has a dog with that name, so whatever!
 
Oh yes, and we just booked a private gender scan for next Monday (in the evening, so we can all go)!! Exciting!

A lot of dogs names were I live are human names. There is a dog that lives by my nan called Dave! I wouldn't worry like Alfie is a popular boys name but I know loads of cats called alfie just go with what you and your husband like :) x
 
We had our gender ultrasound tonight but we aren't finding out till sat bc were doing a gender reveal. I'm going crazy!
 
So exciting Ashley8806! Look forward to hearing what your lil babe is!
 
Went to the doc today babies hb was in the 150s :cloud9: my gender scan is set for April 8th :)
 
Today I lost my first 'baby'; my dog! I got her when I was 15, she would have TURNED 15 this year; I have had her half my life!!! She was my baby, she saw me through sooooo many milestones; moving out of home, boyfriends, marrying hubby, buying our first home, having our first baby.... To have her gone is just unfathomable right now, even though I knew as she got older that her time could come soon... :'(
My other dog is getting soooo many teary cuddles right now.

But meanwhile, baby is having dancing practise inside me, I can feel sooooo much now. I have our FIRST scan in less than 2 days now! I am giving a craft workshop this weekend and getting a decent amount of cash for doing it; for our wee one income family I am so excited to have some spending money!!! I have already picked out the new babywearing wrap I'm going to buy. Lol.
 
Sorry to hear about your furbaby, flyingduster. I had to say goodbye to mine (who was also almost 15) 2 years ago, I still miss him tons. Big hugs to you!
 
Soo excited! This time tomorrow i will know what i am having! Ahhhhhhhh! .. I think im having a boy because my bump is quite low. Just underneath my belly button and nothing on top. This is what its been like for other people i know who have had boy because i heard girls tend to lie higher? Not sure how true that is though x
 
At this stage in pregnancy everyone's bump is low , as your uterus is only upto your belly button,
i find out what in having on Tuesday! Good luck with your scan n hope lo co operates!

flyingduster so sorry to hear about your furbaby , i lost mine a few years ago after getting her when i was 10 , so i know how hard it is x
 
You are so strong Ashley!! Do you have it written in an envelope? I would have been tearing into it as soon as we walked out of the office... I am terrible lol

That's great Jett!

Clynn you have been kinda quiet, how is everything going?

Flyingduster, sorry for your loss. I still get sad thinking about my first dog. My parents got her when I was a couple of weeks old, so she treated me like her puppy. She passed away when I was 12, it was heart breaking. I think they stay with you forever. <3
