June Bundles of Joy - 2016

Yay, we have our first team blue! How exciting! I am sorry the news about the kidney is not what you were hoping but I am so glad to hear it only is on one side.

My boy list so far: Owen, Evan, Nathan, Luke and Jude

My girl list: Nora, Chloe, Noelle, Ruby and Autumn
 
I've been looking on Pinterest at nurseries. I think I'm going to do purple and do a boho theme and have a lot of flowers, butterflies and dream catchers
 
I love Alexander too. . . But I'm biased :haha:

If we have a boy it's definitely be Gabriel Thomas

If we have a girl I'm not sure at all. We like Georgia but if it's a girl we'll have to put some serious effort into choosing a name
 
Secondnote I love Jude and Noelle from your lists x

Pixie Gabriel Thomas is a beautiful name!

I love looking at pinterest for nursery ideas! DS keeps saying he wants to share a bedroom with the baby, I would love it if they chose to share when they're older.
 
Thanks, Tinkerbelle! Jude was our other choice with our DS but we went with Eli. I still love Jude. Noelle is one of my favorites for the girl option but I think it would take a lot of convincing to get my husband to agree. Sigh.
 
Pixie - I'm sorry to hear your ms has returned, I agree how the hell is it not friday??? this week has been too long already.


Our nursery theme is the mamas and papas elfie and mop set it's unisex, we're painting the room but in the same colour it currently is as we're renting but hoping to buy when ds finishes infant school.

These are some pics of the set I found online, it's simple as we're boring and like plain things :haha:

Oh my goodness, I haven't even thought about names yet! Lol
I don't think I will for a while yet. It makes it harder when you have to choose both genders too. I'm not sure whether we will find out now so it may be mega hard to choose a few names, especially boys ones. My DS2 wasn't named for 2 weeks after birth. Xx
 
Ooh I really like that set vanilla

Teeny I had my son's name chosen from about 5 months pregnant, I always think it would be nicer to wait and decide but pregnancy is soo long that I just end up thinking about names all the time and deciding! We're already 99% set on a boys name now.

I'm finding girls names difficult. Ones I quite like are emily, Isabelle and Abigail. DH doesn't agree on any of them though, he likes amelie, freya and Matilda which I'm not sure on.
 
I've bought a few baby clothes, has anyone else noticed that unisex clothes are a rare thing these days? I looked in a few shops and only managed to buy some white sleep-suits and grey bodysuits, everything else in the shops was either blue or pink!
 
Yep definitely! My mum always comments on how it's just a sea of blue on one side and pink on the other, whereas when I was a baby there was much much more unisex and whites and bright colours. I'm guessing it's because most people find out the sex these days?

How about Elodie? It sprang to mind when I read your list, it's French and I always think it is very pretty.
 
Mothercare have the little bird range which is bright and unisex, but I agree - everything Is pink or blue, and I don't like either of those colours!
 
Yes there's a definite lack of unisex baby clothes I agree

Wow this baby is a real wriggler these last few days, I'm getting lots of much stronger movement now and I love it!
 
We have had a set boy and girl name since before I fell pregnant. Obviously we had the boy name from last time. Girl name was a little bit of a challenge but I finally landed on one when we were still trying so it's nice not having to worry about choosing!
 
Soooo I may have gone and booked a private gender scan... for tomorrow! We can take the kids so thought it would be exciting for Sophie to find out with us but typically she started funded nursery yesterday and has come home with a raging temperature and is currently sleeping on my lap.

Next do some gorgeous unisex babygros with really bold colours and patterns.
 
Exciting dory! Come join me in the blue gang it's lonely over here :haha:
 
No baby room/ nursery for us! We are FULL

Our toddler is still using the "nursery" and will be for at least another year. The plan is to have the baby in with us a year, by then our youngest will be three and he go can in with his brother, it's awkward as his brother is nearly 8 . So i figure they can do that for a wee while and then the two with the closer age gap can eventually share when the youngest is a more suitable age (i.e in a bed and not going to choke on brothers lego)

Awkward though as for the time being i'm really reluctant to do any major decorating as it will all change around so much!
 
Ooh exciting Dory!

Loving lots of the names that you are all thinking about. There are so many pretty ones to choose from!

I don't mind gender specific clothes. M&s has some super - cute ones at the moment. I bought some long sleeved Christmas baby vests today - £5 for 3! I'm sure I'm having a girl & they will be so cute on her.

I have a posterior placenta, but I haven't felt any movement yet. Admittedly the pain from the fibroid would probably mask it, but I hope to feel something soon, it will be so exciting!

Great that you felt movement today Angel & that you're feeling lots too Boo.

Has anyone else's skin broken out in spots? Mine isn't great anyway (my mum informs me she got spots until she was about 40 so that's something to look forward to...) but it's much worse than usual. So much for a pregnancy glow!!

Love the nursery set Vaniilla :)
 
Hi Squig yes lots of spots here - it sucks. I have not great skin anyway but when I was pregnant with DS my skin was great - not so lucky this time!
Been feeling some definite movement the past two days which is nice.
