Christmas Alternatives

Hey! I was just curious about what everyone does this time of year. If you don’t celebrate Christmas, but live in a country that does?

I do solstice and did only that until I got married and am forced back into Christmas. If/when I divorce, we will go back to just Solstice, but I might do Christmas when my boys are 8 or so and can understand the experience. I plan to do that for most holidays that I can find out about. We will celebrate Kwanzaa and Hanukkah at some point as well as cultural experiences.

Hanukkah is close enough to Christmas so we still get a festive holiday around now. But it ended a week ago so we did the normal jewish thing and got Chinese food with our friends yesterday since nothing else was open and spent the rest of the day relaxing at home

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 😂🥲

Induction?

Anyone been induced before? Was it more painful? Better than thought? Worse than thought? Worth it? Thoughts?

Baby names

My daughter‘s name is valentýna and I’m struggling to find other nice girl and boy names beginning with V I’ve got a few and I’ve got loads that aren’t beginning with V, but I feel like I wanna go for all vs and I also love girl and boys names that match so because my daughter’s name is valentýna I would love to call my son Valentino my husband does not agree 😃

Induction or c section?

As a last resort, would you rather be induced or have a planned c section?

Really not liking the thought of being induced from people’s experiences I’ve read!
