Baby names

Thought on Kip for a boy?

It’s a family name and we kinda love it but feel that it is more of a nickname

I freaking LOVE IT if you wanted a longer version I’d vote for Kipper. (:

Cute! If you want a longer version I think Kipling and Kipton are cool! 🩵

i love Kip! i like it as a full name in itself - but also as a nickname for Kipling. 💙

it would also work as a nickname for Crispin, Skipper or Kipton.

I'd usually say it's more of a nickname but if it's a family name then that's the reason to just use it as it is and makes it sound even cooler 👍

I agree with you that it’s lovely but feels like a nickname. Agree with others that kipper or Kipling would make nice long forms and i also love the name Christoper as a long form. A Christoper Fox who went by kit would be so cute

It does sound like a nickname and Kip in the UK is a slang term for sleep or having a nap. Kit has become a bit more popular though as a similar name

I know someone that has a Killian and they call him Kip

Christopher nn Kip?

Pregnancy after c section

What time scale did everyone get pregnant again after a c section?
I know the doc said they recommend eating at least a year to 18 months but it took 4 years to get pregnant the first time after being told we could not conceive naturally so not wanting to stop it happening knowing it could take a very long time again but also worried.

Hospital bag (UK)

What did everyone pack for their section? I'm staying in for 3 days due to mental health, not really sure what I'll need to bring, feeling very nervous. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you!

Labour

Think im a bit confused really, i went into traige as was having contractions eveey 3-5mins. Since being here im now having them every 2-3mins which was confirmed with the machine and i think the toco was 90-100 and they feel painful and my lower back is in loads of pain but apparently im only just over 2cm dilated maybe, she has said i can stay here for a bit longer to see if things progress as had a previous quick birth as well but i dont understand why the pains are coming this quick if im only 2cm dilated and feel a bit deflated from it also.

I had a sweep this morning also.

C section trauma ?

Is it a thing to be traumatised by a c section delivery? I’m 4 weeks pp after having an emergency c section. I won’t go into the ins and outs to what got me there 😂
Nothing went wrong in the surgery at all, it was just incredibly intense, overwhelming and scary, but luckily my baby was delivered safe!
However I’m finding my birth experience quite difficult to even think about and when I do, I feel a horrid gut wrenching feeling, my heart aches and I just uncontrollably cry! My body feels really alien to me, like it’s not my own and I just feel really let down.
