Cecily

Honest opinions on the name Cecily for our little girl - we are due in September and been struggling to find a name we both like - we want something pretty/ not overused but also not unheard of and one that people will know how to pronounce.
Do you think we could give her Cessie as her nickname (but pronounce is Chessie) or is that more like Francesca?! It’s just then we avoid it sounding like “sexy” if it does get shortened 🤣😆

Also any suggestions for middle name advice too would be appreciated !

Baby no2!

Would anyone mind sharing positive or negative experiences with VBAC's ? I've just had a consultant appointment and really don't know what to do!

What is happening to me 33weeks pregnant

For the past 3 weeks my poo has been quite soft and much more smelly than normal, I have constantly been suffering with eggy burps and severe tummy ache almost like trapped gas. Any advice on what to do thank you .

Present for older sibling from the baby 👶🏼

I’m due 2 weeks tomorrow, and just wondered if anyone who’s having baby no.2 is getting a gift for their eldest child from the baby? And if so what are you getting? I feel like it would be a lovely thing to do, and my daughter would love it, I just don’t really know what to look for 🤣 so ideas are welcome ☺️

Big baby and c sec recommendation

I am 38 weeks pregnant, had my GD at 28 weeks when I didn’t have diabeties. At 33 weeks did it again and GD was borderline. From then I am very controlled on diet but baby is 98 centile and weighs 3.3kg at 37 weeks scan with most of the weight around Abdominal circumference. Doctors are recommending c section at 39 weeks. It’s very disappointing as I was prepping myself for normal delivery. I am 5.1 and petite so doctors are saying there are chances of high grade tearing and also epiostomy. I also have an option for getting induction at 39 weeks which I am not sure about manual induction. Opinions please if anyone else has experienced the same problems. I am just unsure what to do

birthday invites

We are having a birthday party on June 27 for my daughter who is turning 7. Her last day of school is June 5. Would this week (5/26-5/29) be too early to pass out invitations to her school friends?
