What vibe do you get from each name?

All great names. We've had 3 of them on our list.

Oscar is a goodie, but it is popular. I think it sounds warm and friendly.
Hugo is probably my least favourite but only because of personal associations.
Max, I love. It's short, got a bit of attitude, and it's not too popular.
Finn is gorgeous and my favourite, but we know at least 4 (older kids of close friends), so we couldn't really have it.

I love all of them! My eldest is Oscar and I love it. He’s the only one in his class but it is a popular name and we do hear it around a fair bit.
Hugo is a great name and becoming more popular and less “posh boy”. It was on our list if we had another boy.
Max was our top for another boy I think it’s a fantastic name and not very popular right now either so well known but not loads of babies with that name.
Finn is a great name too. Finley is a bit more popular so you may hear some shortenings of Finn around but I still love it and think it is a great name.

All the names on your list give me classic name vibes. Not overly popular, well known, British. In terms of personality they give me a friendly, loyal, cool vibe. All the boys I’ve ever taught with these names have been amazing!

I think you and I have similar name taste. Other names on our list were Alfie and Zachary/ Zack.

I think they are all fantastic names but my personal choice is Oscar or Max. Good luck choosing one

I’ve got an Oscar 🩵

Do you think it’s weird that adults are so into their own birthdays? Like full weekends out of it, can’t do anything else because it’s their birthday month. I get like milestones birthdays (18,21,30 & 50.) but it’s not that special, right?

Only asking because my friend of 15+ years blew off my baby shower because it was her birthday weekend, not even the actual day. Her response was “I’m a Leo”

Advice

Im 38 weeks +2 pregnant, and for the past week I've suffered with tremendous pelvic girdle pain. It's become so bad that I can hardly walk without being in agony, and I'm not sleeping because of it.

I have tried all the usual recommendations, but nothing at all is easing it.

I've had some tightening across the bump all week, and baby seems to be moving very vigorously now too, which comes with the sharp crotch pain. No other signs really. I am not really sure whether to phone triage today to get advice.

Obviously, I'm due soon, so referral to physio is Obviously not an option. Do I just need to ride this out somehow? Or could I maybe get some medication to help elevate the pain?

Last night I also noticed my hands and feet getting hot.

I've contacted my midwife for advice and waiting on a response. Any advice would be very welcome as a FT mum to be.

Thank you

Anyone else?

Anyone else experiencing constant period cramping and dull back pain? It’s been days 😩

To scan or not to scan??

I’ve got a scan booked in 2 weeks time when I ✨ should ✨ be 8+2, however there’s a scan available today at 2pm, I’m currently 6+1…

I really want to see a heartbeat before I tell my son I’m expecting and if I measure early I’m guessing I might not see that today, on the other hand if I do it will massively reassure me… help 😱
