Apps for contractions

What apps is everyone planning on using to count/time their contractions when it comes to the time? I was just going to use the timer on my phone but wondering if there’s actually any good apps for it.

Is my daughters name to unique?

I had my daughter a 8 months ago, I told my husband that always had a baby girl named picked out since I was about 13 years old. And he was OK with it. He just changed the spelling which I’m not a huge fan but I still love her name.

Her first name is Sunni middle name Ella Rae. I don’t really love the Ella part or how Sunni is spelled I think it should be spelled as Sunnie so it makes more sense. A few people have commented on it, aka my mother-in-law to be specific. Did I choose a real name for my daughter?

We finally agreed on the name 🫣

So I have to go back-and-forth and multiple arguments about our daughter’s name who is due December we finally came to an agreement I wanted Anastasia He wanted Maria so we agreed on Anamária I need opinions Is this A. a nice name? B. Goes with Valentyna

Induction

Hey, I am being induced closer to my due date and the consultant has mentioned using the balloon for induction. I had a pessary when induced with my second.

Anyone had both methods and can tell me how different those labours were or wasn’t? 🩷

50/50 Co parenting a newborn

Is it a good idea for a baby to move home every 3/4 days to co parent?
I want to breast feed which I wouldn’t be able to if we do 50/50 and I feel that’s unfair to both me and the baby I’m pregnant with.
Is it ever a good idea to 50/50 share a newborn baby? Am I wrong to say no?
I won’t get into baby daddy situation but he’s awful. Regardless of that is it ever a good idea for a newborn to bounce between homes so often? I would be ok with the idea from when the baby is 12 months but immediately after birth I think is a crazy ask from the dad.

Anyone else feel guilty for resting?

I’m 33 weeks tomorrow and I feel bad that some days I just want to be left alone and veg on the sofa! Does anyone else feel the same way? My boyfriend is super active and never sits down. When he makes a joke that I’m sitting around, I just get emotional about it. I just cry! 😅 And then I feel stupid for crying! It’s like a continuous cycle. But when I am on my feet all day, I get horrid pelvic pain, leg and bum pain. I just try to make myself move! I’m just finding it difficult to be kind to myself. Some days are worse than others I suppose.

Umbilical cord

My daughter is 4 days old, today her cord has bleed and a few hours later has fallen off.
It is red on her belly button (not sure if it’s slightly swollen or just got a bit of an outy belly button) and there is a small amount of yellow puss inside her belly button.

Is this normal or something I should get checked out?
