I love the name Sara Rose. Since we announced we're having a girl everyone keeps asking what's the name but I don't think I'm going to share it with anyone. When my sil found out she was having a boy she told everyone immediately that she was naming him Dominic and everyone was sooo opinionated so I defiantly want to avoid that. Also I think I'd like to see her and hold her before I lock into anything. I might see her and think omg she's def not a Sara lol idk

I think Sara Rose is a lovely name. Mine is Sarah Renae.. so maybe I am a little biased! I think everyone has chosen lovely names

We only shared our daughters name with close family and a few friends. I plan to do the same thing this time. I didn't want to listen to anyone's comments because it's not their baby, it's ours.

So, I ordered maternity pants online last week, and I just got them in the mail today! They're absolutely amazing, I never want to wear regular pants ever again. Haha The only issue I have is I'm 6' tall and they're kind of short. That really is a bummer about being tall, it's hard to find pants long enough as it is, I doubt I'll ever find maternity pants long enough!

It also came with gift cards for free, I had no idea I was getting them to basically get one product from free from four different things. The nursing pillow, a carseat canopy, a nursing cover and a baby sling. I'm super excited to find out the gender so I can get all those things tomorrow! I only have to pay for shipping, which is still an awesome deal!

My husband is trying to tell me that the nursing pillow isn't even worth paying the shipping. So I told him he can nurse the baby. I'm getting one anyway, he can't deny a free nursing pillow! Well, I can't at least!

I think I got that same coupon at my doctors office on Friday I was wanting to look up the car seat canopy lol

You should check out gap maternity for tall jeans. Their regular inseam is a 33 so I'd imagine the tall length is pretty long.

Our DD's name is Ainsley Grace...we don't know what we are having yet but a few girls names I like are

Ariana Elisabeth
Elaine. Or "Laney" for a nick name

For a boy I like
Grant
Graylan
Audie

Middle name would be Christopher on any of the boys.


So tough picking a name!

Is any 18weekers feeling hiccups already? Prett sure baby has them right now! It's a familiar feeling I had with my DD! She always had them and still does!

 

[jmandrews]

I love hearing all these names
rbourre- our DD's are very close in age. I love
How you spelt her name. So pretty!
My DD's name is Everlee Rowe. It doesn't have a special meaning I just love how it sounded together. I like unique names. I grew up with a family of unique names so maybe that's why. My parents did a J theme with us. My older sisters Janalyn and Jocelyn, then a brother named Jordan, and my twin sister and I are Janene(me) and Janelle. My twin sister named her daughter Nora Jade.
We liked the name Cohen Lynn for a boy. (Lynn is my husbands middle name and runs in his family) not sure if we will stick with that or not when we have another. Any way hope You don't mind me chiming in.

This is Everlee

It wouldn't let me post more than one pic but here is one of my DH Chris and I last month while we vacationed in the Dominican Republic.

Awwwww i looooove hiccups, so cute. Not sure when there supposed to happen, mine have been further on though. But everyone's different and all that
I felt loads of kicks last thurs and fri morning in top right corner, not felt a great deal since (glad I have a Doppler lol). Anterior placenta is pissing me off, can't wait for baby to be stronger so I can feel a lot more. X

 

[zebadi]

Aww. You guys make a lovely couple

You know you're pregnant when the rain falling outside is keeping you awake and you want to cry. I usually love the sounds of rain and it would actually make me fall asleep. Tonight, it's just irritating!

 

[whigfield]

18 weeks and 2 days today.. Took a "bump" pic.. I just see a fat belly. Does it seem quite high up to you ladies?

 

[vickyandchick]

Whigfield my bump/belly looks like yours! Mine is quite high up too, always has been
Was 18 weeks yesterday and the hormones have hit hard lately, I cry at everything!

 

[Jcliff]

I had my 16 week midwife appointment today and I couldn't be more disappointed. I went in and saw a different midwife to the one I saw before and it was just like she didn't care. All she did was check a urine sample then told me I had a trace of protein but wouldn't explain what that meant. I'm resisting the urge to google as I know it will just scare me! She did blood pressure check and asked if I had any concerns. I keep having pains in my stomach and all she said was visit your GP or take paracetamol.

She didn't discuss anything with me only that I have to attend parenting classes as it's my first . . . Never heard that before! I have to go to breastfeeding classes to which I'm not too bothered about but it was so awful she just made me feel like a child that knew nothing

She didn't check anything on me or the baby just told to come back in six weeks. I'm pleased I had a private scan on Monday just for reassurance purposes as for some reason she just didn't seem to care at all!

The nursing pillow is the best thing ever!!! When my ds was 3 months old I took him on his first airplane ride, the pillow made it so much nicer! It puts them at the perfect angle for bf and it really saves your arms!
