June Bundles of Joy - 2016

[SecondNote]

Aww! The team blue list is growing. How exciting!

 

[Boo44]

Welcome lav and congratulations to you and tink and welcome to team blue!

Have any of you other team bluers got any idea of names yet?

I couldn't resist buying my baby boy some bits in next today even though I never usually buy this early!

The baby grows are first size and I think will be to take to the hospital, and the little outfit is 0-3 - I just adore baby boy leggings!

 

[Boo44]

In fact Tinky - we're due the same day and both team blue! happy 20 weeks! I'm so pleased to finally reach 20 weeks

 

[Boo44]

double post sorry

Congrats on team blue ladies

Baby's movements have got super strong over the last few days I've felt at least 10 strong movements today.

I am so crabby today well this week really. I've just got no patience at all. I'm making stupid mistakes too - emailing senior managers to sign off attached documents and then forgetting to attach them. I feel very under pressure at work and I'm feeling really run down. I usually love the pressure and I love my job, but everyone is pissing me off

Boo we've not found out the gender yet but we already have a boys name I love it too. This is our last baby, I'll be sad to see the name go unused lol. Not sure Gabriel Thomas is so lovely for a girl though

Congrats on team blue ladies!

 

[Lavochain]

Congrats Tink! Lovely outfits ladies. We have lots of clothes as we picked them up during the sales but we can get some more specific 'boy' bits now. My mum couldn't help herself and went a bit mad in M&S, we also found a cute jumper in boots on sale - I looove a sale I will post pics later on.

Pixie - It must be nice to feel such strong movements. I can't wait until mine are more routine. He is definitely a wriggler.

I understand the moods. I'm always crabby or crying lately.

 

[Lavochain]

Have any of you other team bluers got any idea of names yet?

We are calling our boy Rupert. His full name will be Rupert Edmund George Harding, the two middles names are traditional family names from both sides.

I'm so glad we settled on one quickly, our girls name has been chosen since conception!

Was able to schedule our 20 week scan for Feb 10. (Funny that out first scan was Dec 10)... I'm holding fast to remaining team yellow... Although it's so hard thinking we will be close to being able to know! Oh well I figure at that point I made it 20 weeks without knowing what's 20ish more!

 

[Tinky_82]

In fact Tinky - we're due the same day and both team blue! happy 20 weeks! I'm so pleased to finally reach 20 weeks

And to you Boo, were your others on time?
DS was 11 days late, hoping this one is a bit more punctual.
Love your bits from next - I'm planning a trip there for a few boys bits closer to due date.

 

[Tinky_82]

Casey and Alfie are two names on our list but I've more research to do and we may not decide fully on name until we meet him.

 

[tinkerbelle93]

Lavochain and tink congratulations on team blue! it's nice to have gained some more blue bumps the past few days, although I think I'm going to be alone in the yellow bump corner soon.

Loving all the outfit pictures!

Boo we really like George for a boy. I also like Alexander but keep thinking it will just be shortened to Alex automatically by everyone. Other possibilities are Charlie, Freddie, Harry or Isaac. Our ds is Oliver so conscious that it needs to pair well with that.

 

[Lil_Pixie]

Tink Xander's name is Alexander Dr's sometimes call Alex for him and we never even realise it's us he's always always been called Xander.

Congrats on the blue bumps!!!

Boo I have had my heart set on Jude since we found out I was pregnant, but I also had Rupert and Robin on my list this time. I keep asking OH tO think about names but getting nowhere so far.

I managed to sort through all of DD's baby clothes today. It was harrrd but I have got a small bag of my favourite dresses and outfits from the last 2 years for if we ever have another girl or to make in to a memory bear. I now need to get rid of 6 massive bags full of newborn to 18-24m clothes. Xx

 

[Boo44]

Aww I'm loving all the name talk!

Pixie - Gabriel Thomas is super gorgeous! I'm sure you'll come up with just as gorgeous a name if bump turns out to be pink though. Are you finding out?

Lav - ahh Rupert is such a good name! We love traditional old type names

Tinker belle - erm I love every name on that list we clearly have good taste! Haha. Freddie is my middle son's name (ahh that's the first time I've referred to him as that! ) and I love it. I'm so pleased we chose it. He really suits it and we get compliments all the time on it. However now that bloody one direction lad has called his new baby Freddie I bet it will become more popular...

Joo - yes I remember you saying Jude and I love it I think it is a really nice name

Tinky - my boys were both 2 weeks early and because they were born by section I'm having a planned section this time at 39 weeks if I get that far xx

Our favourite name at the moment is Arthur Harry, although I do like Hugo as well and Henry and George. Still a while to decide xx

 

[Squig34]

Congratulations on Tinky & Lavochain!

Love all the pics of cute clothes.

Pixie, you could always adapt to Gabriella Thomasina

Still loving hearing the names everyone is choosing it's so interesting!

 

[babyclements]

Ladies, I went coupon crazy with all the coupons I got after signing up for stuff!! Them and a great deal at target I got a stockpile of diapers all sorted!!! My diaper bag came too I'm putting it away till June my scan isn't till February 10th jealous of everyone's so far!

Congrats on all the new team blues!!!

 

[Lavochain]

Wow babyclements you are certainly organised. I'm pretty much the same and have been eyeing nappies tonight, we settled on some more clothes for now though.

Joo, we have almost identicle name lists then! Jude is a beautiful name.

Boo, I love love the name Arthur! If it hadn't have had a popularity surge here we would have chosen it.

 

[tinkerbelle93]

I think I'm going to head to aldi for the baby event tomorrow and see if I can pick up some essentials, their nappies seem very reasonable. We used them for ds when he was a toddler but not sure if the newborn ones would be any good? I only used pampers when he was tiny and nothing else seemed as soft? Any nappy recommendations?

And baby wipes, do most people just use cotton wool and water at first? I've seen you can buy those baby wipes that are purely water and wipe now although they're a tad prices. Can't remember what we did for ds.
