boy names

Found out the gender today and was a little disappointed when we found out it was a boy (which I feel so guilty for feeling) just because I can’t find any boy names I like at all and had my heart set on having a girl. We like names like Ollie, Charlie, Freddie, 2 syllables ending in the /ee/ sound. Struggling even more because I’m a teacher and every name I like seems to be in my class or previous classes! Any suggestions would be much appreciated😊

Olliver and Victor are my favourites

it’s okay gender disappointment is real 💙🩷 Lenny was my top boy name! my bf didn’t like it though

Honestly you’re not alone, when I found out my second was another boy I was fighting for my life not to cry in front of the sonographer🤣 just give it a couple of weeks you will get over the disappointment🤞🏻 Boy names are so hard! We really like Eden, Asher, Noah, Leo & Parker ☺️

Cant offer any other name suggestions in that style that haven't already been commented but just wanted to add that I always thought I'd have a girl first and was a bit surprised when we found out we were having a boy, I wasn't disappointed just wasn't expecting it. Having a boy is the absolute best! Hes so so loving and the sweetest little thing and now I wouldn't even mind if we have more boys in the future and don't have a girl. Boys are supposedly more affection than girls and wild in the best way, I get about 500 big squeezes from my 1 year old everyday and its always the best!! Give it some time but I can assure you as soon as you have your little boy nothing else will matter💙

Oh my God, oh my God I hope this is not true!!!! I’m kind of scared

I’ve been throwing up and taking a shit all night!!! I just hope that it’s not what I think it is

Scan needed at 33 weeks

Hi ladies! I just had a midwife appointment (I am 33+5)..the midwife was different to my usual midwife. She's requested I have a scan within 72 hours as she said baby is measuring a little small, however, she did say that it's likely nothing to worry about and it's probably just her measuring me a bit different to my usual midwife. Has anyone else had this? Am a bit worried although babys heartbeat and movements are completely fine.

Finding out gender

Has anyone found out the gender at a private scan at 14 weeks? And has this been accurate?

I found out at 17 with my first but I know a scan place that offers from 14/15 weeks and I’m impatient 😂🥲

Hi

Hi guys so I’m 25 weeks today and I haven’t felt the baby kick at all yet at the scans she’s moving constantly that it’s hard to get the right measurements my first pregnancy was cryptic so I just want suggestions from one worried mother

Rolling milestone at 5 months - What’s typical ?

Good morning ladies,

My daughter will be 5 months old tomorrow, but there’s still no sign of her rolling. She does tummy time and loves lying on her mat, playing with hanging toys above her and to the sides, but she only lifts her legs and doesn’t seem interested in rolling or moving sideways yet.

Anyone else the same or have your babies already learnt how to roll yet ?

Thank you

Random one!

My 5 month old has only ever had tears from one eye the other has never had a single tear, it doesn't look red gunky or anything just never had a tear?
Is this anything to worry about ? I did ask the doctor while she was younger but it's still going on!
