Nickname for a girl

I’m pregnant with a little girl and have decided on Aurora for her name
I’d like a nickname for her and have seen the most common nickname for Aurora is Rory

However, our surname starts with Ri (same sound as in River)… so I’m thinking that Rory River might be some sort of tongue twist or sound weird

Am I overthinking it? Are there any other nicknames that don’t end in “ry”?

I've seen the most common nicknames are Rory, Rore or Rora

I think Rory River sounds cute!! And that’s coming from someone who has difficulty saying their R’s 🤣 how often would people say her first and last name together except for in school!? For appointments etc she will be called by her full name

My little boy is called Rory Ray, I thought I would get muddled with it but we call him a Rory Ray more than Rory now as do our wider family! It's such a cute name!

I personally love Rory, but I’ve also heard Ari for Aurora too 😊

Baby 2 - nhs appointments

I had an emergency c-section with baby 1. So im assuming now with baby 2 ill be high risk and consultant led. I know a previous c-section increases your risk of miscarriage so is there anyway to make sure my booking appointment is after my 12 week scan? I dont want to waste time on it for a non-viable pregnancy. Can I just ask for a date thats after my scan?

Im also assuming that im going to be told that I have to be consultant led, cannot labout at all at home and continous monitoring the whole time. I feel like with that there is almost no point in trying for a vbac because thats going to end with my failing again and another emergency c-section.

Anti-d mommas

Did you have the anti d injection before and after birth? Just asking as I’m rhesus negative so I had the injection during pregnancy but didn’t have it when my little one was born does anyone have any similar experiences?

Pain relief at home

Does anyone have any ideas for at home pain relief? I’m having painful contractions about 3-5 mins apart, hospital sent me home. I’ve tried bath and paracetamol but it’s had no effect. I’m currently operating on 0 hours sleep as I can’t settle through the pain 😭

Hospital Bag

I’ve been watching loads of tiktoks of people packing their hospital bags and nearly everyone packs shampoo and conditioner

Who on earth is having a baby and then going for a hair wash?? Do i need to pack them? Did you wash your hair in hospital? Did you also take a hairdryer?
