Iām pregnant with my first baby. We are expecting a little boy in mid January.
My partner and I have a few names on our list that we like, however I fear none of them are āhis nameā.
Iāve had the name Jude picked out for a boy for a very long time, since my early teenage years. I love it, but itās become ridiculously popular now. š„²šš This really puts me off using it!
We are loving the name Saul at the moment.
Can anyone give us some inspo for a middle name for Saul? Our surname is two-syllables and begins with L.

My son is jude born 2022 at the time still uncommon. Tbh although more popular i only known of maybe one other and sometimes hear it out n about. Always have compliments on his name. Personally I'd go with name you like most be that Saul or jude. I've never heard of Saul Personally. Both my kids have a grandparents name as a middle name

I didnāt call my son Jude for this reason in 2019 I called him Teddy which is now also so popular so donāt worry if itās popular you could pick another name and next year it will be more common, just use Jude š

My husband is Saul. His middle name is Anthony.

Saul is a nice name. I would probably do something like the following
Saul Joseph
Saul Alexander
Saul Beckett (my personal favorite)
Saul Solomon
I gave birth to my daughter on October 17, and my epidural failed, making my delivery extremely painful and traumatic. I was discharged on October 20 after being told everything was okay. The very next day, October 21, I returned with headaches, fatigue, and vision changes and was diagnosed with postpartum preeclampsia. I canāt help but question whether I was discharged too soon.
While receiving care in Labor and Delivery, nurse Katie and charge nurse Aaryn T. made my partner and me feel disrespected and dismissed. They also kept me from my 4-day-old newborn, who had been discharged from the same hospital with me on October 21. After such a traumatic birth and a frightening medical complication, I deserved compassion, not more stress.
Postpartum mothers deserve respect, support, and safe care. I hope hospital management takes my experience seriously.
If youāve personally had an experience here, please consider leaving an honest review to help others make informed decisions. Thank you to everyone supporting my family. ā¤ļø

I had an emergency C-section at the start of September, and I havenāt had my 6 week discharge/follow up appointment come through from the NHS yet. Are we meant to organise this or is an appointment sent out? Canāt wait to find out when I can start some light exercise and scar massage etc! Iāve had other appointments since but nothing that focuses on this. Thank you šš¼

I had a low lying placenta at my 20 week scan and Iāve just had another scan at 29 weeks and it still hasnāt moved up. Has anyone had it move later on in pregnancy?

Just to give you hands up.
Itās so sad that children are not allowed in the screening room. My little one was so excited to see his sibling and ended up waiting outside with my husband. We kind of lost the special moment. We are planning to go private soon.
Thankfully baby is doing really greatā¤ļø
