Boy names

I really love the name Elijah, I know it's been over used in recent years but I love the Hebrew meaning. I have extended family members that have an Elijah, like.... 2 or 3 other people however we hardly speak to those extended family. Should I stick with Elijah or pick something else? Also, stuck between middle name choices.

If you like the name it doesn’t matter who else in the family has it as long as you’re not naming your son after them I’d say don’t change it just because of them. Elijah is a beautiful name.

Also, Elijah Hunter rhymes better in my opinion. Congratulations on your little boy 🥰.

I like Elijah Hunter as well

I feel like a name like that will often be shortened to Eli. Would it be an option to go with Eli right away? Would that erase your concerns?

Induction?

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

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!

Growth scan

So had my 28 week midwife appointment- all good but after measuring bump- I’m now waiting on a scan within a few days as bump is measuring small I’m not worried as I am guessing a tape measure is hardly accurate but
For anyone who has been in a similar position- what was the outcome after the scan? Was the baby on the smaller side ?
Was baby measuring normal?

Thanks
