*** NOVEMBER 2011 BABIES ! *** Chrysanthe-Mums - 39 babies here already!!!

[LoolaBear]

i know, my favourite for a Girl is Niamh at the moment but its no longer on my list theres this really chavvy disgusting girl who lives in my mums village thats just named her girl Niamh and shes the type of girl to go about making your life hell if you use her childs name.
but there are so many nice ones out there that it doesnt matter x

 

[Niamh22]

that's what i called my little girl Niamh hence my name on here lol. Don't know what i would do if this was a girl as i knew from a young age that i would call my baby if it was a girl niamh and can think of no others that i like lol

DH isnt keen on the name either but i might have it as a middle name, she cant do anything about it then as i wouldnt have copied her but then i am playing around with other ideas of names that i like for girls, kinda have my heart set on a name but cant decide on the middle name spelling. xx

 

[DrGomps]

wow I missed alot, I am behind you guys (timewise) and I slept about 11 hours last night (so exhausted) anywho...

welcome nyn and whizz and congrats!
Brilliant name ideas whizz!

Names are quite a difficult thing to decide because it will stick with them forever (unless they change it). DH and I have a hard time agreeing. Mainly because he is full blood American but his ancestors came from germany (but both his parents are originally from the south, but not life in california). I come from a direct line of dutch Jews which were holocaust survivors so I have a lot of pride in my heritage and would like to name my children after my ancestors who were killed in concentration camps. DH wants names that are not overly ethnic. LOL. And in his family the first born male has the middle name marshall and on my moms side the first born female has the middle name lynne (my mom and I both have the middle name lynne and my mom was actually named after shirley temple's daughter lori lynne). So the middle name is settled. The two names we have agreed on as possible ones is Josephine and Benjamin. But the issue with Benjamin is the middle name Marshall and our last name begins with an s. BMS. Not the best initials.

Did my first set of prenatal exercises today and eating lots of fruits and veggies. I was really bad about diet and always exercising after the wedding (lost my motivation after I know longer was facing the prospect of being photographed in a silk charmeuse gown) but now that the life of my child is depending on my choices I am trying to be more careful.

DH just started on a case at work (he is a lawyer) which will have him working 13 hour days 7 days a week. :'( guess that gives me more time for BnB and starting a pregnancy journal!!!

 

[fides]

I like Topaz too!! Topaz Tinkers, Topaz Tiddlers, Topaz Tummy's for November Mummy's

i love 'em - those are great!

 

[fides]

welcome to the new moms, and congratulations!!!

Thanks Fides, I'm so excited but need to start making sure I eat healthy

Yes - i started back up the "Best Odds Diet" again a few days before we got the positive tests b/c i knew i was pregnant. It is so hard for me to eat enough protein and calcium (i don't really care for meat or diary), but i am going to do my best to provide this child with a good start.

drgomps, what are prenatal exercises?

 

[fides]

oh, and for the discussion about finding out the gender... We were going to wait until the baby was born to find out what the first one was, but since we lost it at the end of the 1st trimester, i don't know what gender it was (they don't do scans on 1st-time moms until 20wks), and that has bothered me. So, honestly, i am torn. If i somehow knew 100% that this baby would make it, i'd want to wait, but a huge part of me is terrified of losing this one also, so if they do an early scan b/c of my prior m/c, i might totally cave in. i just don't know yet.

this is so cool to have so many women due around the same time - bnb rocks!!

 

[LoolaBear]

i dont know if you get quorn in the states but this is fantasic for protein, and is naturally low in fat.
i love the stuff. xx

 

[birdiex]

Hi Girls, sorry to butt in!

I can make a little signature picture thingy if you like, when you all come up with a name (I can't make ones that move or flash or anything though)!

I've been stalking the thread anyway so as soon as you all decide on something, I'll get on it!

 

[fides]

loola, thanks for the tip on quorn - never heard of it, but will check into it, certainly - thanks!!

 

[DrGomps]

ooh and I like Topaz Tummy's for November Mummy's .
I just did a prenatal workout dvd...focuses alot of pelvic floor with squats etc. Good because it makes sure your don't get too overheated and has lots of breaks to stay hydrated.

 

[DrGomps]

Hi Birdie welcome...when are you due?

 

[birdiex]

Hi Birdie welcome...when are you due?

Not too sure yet, 8th or 10th if AF doesn't come - I'm due for AF on the 3rd so I'm hoping it stays away! I'm not going to test until it's late, so I'm just going to stalk until I know the outcome! Fingers crossed!

& Congrats everyone, H&H 9 months! Hope to join you girls soon!

 

[DrGomps]

ooh...fx'ed for you Birdie!!! I am actually officially late today...15DPO, but I got my :BFP: at 9 DPO (CD 32-I have a 37 day cycle).

 

[MummyCat]

Hiya Birdie! Good luck hun! (keeping fingers crossed for you!!)

Hello everyone else just by the way... I was suggesting in a hurry and technically... it should be Topaz Tummies for November Mummies (if we're being pedantic) but naturally there are a whole lotta Nov Mummies still to join us who will have some good ideas!

Dr Gomps, I love your name ideas already! I'm trying to eat more healthily... it's my snacking that needs to be stopped or re directed

 

[Niamh22]

I like the topaz tummies name. i think this time i will find out the gender dint with my lo was a surprise but think with this 1 its more practical to know as ive kept all my lil girls clothes

 

[you&me]

November Sparklers for 2011...woahhhhhhh...time has gone quick...my baby was conceived valentines day last year, giving me a due date of 6th November 2010.

She managed to sneak in a few days early however and was born by section 29th October.

Congratulations Ladies, wishing you all a happy and healthy 9 months

 

[Nyn]

ooh I love the name Niamh!! But i completely understand what you mean about the other girl.. I'm sure you'll come up with something equally cute

I love the siggy ideas!! love 'em all, so if anyone has preferences... and thanks birdiex for offering to do them!

I've never done prenatal exercises except the birthing ball, which I used with d2. Amazing thing and going to get it out soon as for nutrition.. am taking prenatal vitamins and eating more or less healthily
