Bilingual Names

So my husband is francophone and im anglophone and we wanted names that work in both languages. For a girl we’re thinking Sofia and for a boy we’re thinking Mathieu. What’d you think?

I am french and my partner english . My girls are called nayah and lilah , expecting a boy who will be called ezrah . Its so hard to find names that sound the same in both langage xx

i'm from Canada and these are definitely bilingual names i've heard of in both english and french

Same here we have an Alexa and a Zachary well we have a lot more but for these 2 we went bilingual my real name is really French (also from Canada)

Angelique and Jean-Luc!

I am French and my partner is Spanish we wanted a name that work in all countries (UK, France, Spain), with no change in the prononciation. We choose Matilda. It is not easy to find a name where you are both from different nationality. Sofia and Mathieu work perfectly

Period like cramps

Hi
I’m currently 33 weeks pregnant and I keep getting period like cramps I thought these were Brixton hicks but I’ve heard they only last 30 seconds ish as this can go on for a good time frame then go away and come back, they aren’t bad enough where I can’t do basic things they just feel like I’m about to get my period I’m jus wondering how normal this is? Baby is still very actively kicking xx

Day out after c section

Hey,
I had an emergency c section 1 week ago I obviously don't want a day out right now but I have things booked for the Easter holidays so in 2 weeks. I was just wondering if I will be overdoing it if I have a day out then or will I be ok? I would still take it as easy as I could. When did everyone feel good enough to go out?

C section or natural?

I am a control freak and thinking c section is the least stressful route for me and baby… less complications during labour etc. whilst acknowledging recovering can be hard.
If it could be guaranteed no tearing or complications then I would opt for natural and kind of want to experience the feeling.
Then again could plan and go either way 😂 arghh!
Anyone else in this predicament?

Midwife check

Can someone remind me when the midwife visits you at home? Is it the day after you’re discharged? And is that the same on the weekend or do they not visit then? Thanks!
