Month baby names

General consensus on naming your baby a month (August, May, April) if they aren’t actually born in that month?

Due beginning of Sept and like the name August for a boy - but unless I am early he won’t be born in August!

Plus size pregnancy

Hi ladies,

Im a plus size and I’m currently 15.5 weeks pregnant, I’m just wondering at how many weeks did you feel your baby move with being plus size…
Just curious to see, as I’m being told with being plus size I won’t feel my baby at 24 weeks plus.

Welcomed my baby girl on July 16th via C-section. 💕 Our hearts are full.

Big boobs or flat stomach?

Would you rather have big boobs with a round belly or a flat stomach with a flat chest?

Need help with baby name - maybe changing the name.

My boyfriend and I took awhile to name our baby girl, it was hard because he didn’t like my first choice and I didn’t like his. We ended up finding one that we both kinda liked and ended up naming her Brianne and call her Bri (we really like the name Bri). Now we are struggling thinking that name isn’t our favourite- we found another we like (Norah) but do we go through the process of changing her name to Norah (a name we both love) or finding another formal name like Aubrie so we still call her Bri? I struggle because everyone around now knows her as Bri.
Sorry so confusing- we are both indecisive people. Any suggestions would help!

Early scan

We can a private scan yesterday at 6+1. We ended up having to a trans vaginal, which I was expecting. There was a gestational sac and yolk sac. But she didn’t want to 100% confirm whether she could see a fetal pole. She was reassuring and said it might be that my days were just a little out and that everything can change within hours/ days. I think I ovulated around day 16/17. Anyone else had the same and then a healthy pregnancy. We had a loss in December and were diagnosed with unexplained infertility in April so feeling excited and super anxious. We’re booked back in next Thursday 🤞🏻If you got this far thank you 🥰

VBAC or C Section?

I had planned on a home birth with a midwife. I labored at home for 36 hours, and after 7 hours of pushing, we finally transferred to a hospital and we ended up with an emergency c section. Thankfully all was okay. Though it was the Last thing I thought would happen. The hospital was a surprisingly positive experience given the circumstances… I think there’s a lil residual trauma still there around the ordeal. As we want to have another, I’d be curious what others chose to do. Was the VBAC healing and worth it? Or how was a second c section? What did it do to your scar? Is it worse in any ways?

I find myself thinking about this decision often so would appreciate some insights.
