Have you downloaded the pregnancy+ app? It’s amazing! And very addictive. It’s got 100’s are names, these things change and I’m sure you’ll find a gorgeous name. All the best :) x

I loved Aria but changed it to Ariella 😍❤️

All that matters is if you like it hun.😊 Leilani (lay-laun-ee)is a Hawaiian name and I know because I almost picked it for my little girl. I picked another Hawaiian name instead tho I chose Kalia.

you shouldn't care what people think! they will get use to saying it, you're the mom! and Aria is a beautiful name 😍

I loved Aria and wanted it for my daughter but my husband didn’t like it lol.

Eva !!

I would’ve named my baby aria if I had a girl, stick to what you like! Aria is beautiful 😁

Esmae, frankie, Lola, Evelyn, Evie, mazie, Gabriella

My girl choices were
Willow
Harley
Riley
Harper
☺️☺️

I have a friend who named her daughter Ariana

All for Aria, my oldest is almost 6 and that is her name! We also liked Quinn and Scarlett. Wanted something you don’t hear everyday but not completely off the wall. As long as you like the name though no other opinions really matter

I’ve always thought Aurelia was such a beautiful, unique name for a little girl 😊

What about Ava? Or Adeline? Or Arianna?

Ariel, Amia, Aryé

Hey, that's my birthday! My daughter's name is Freya Dahlia, but I also liked Alice, Violet, Luna, Alanna, Elena, Caroline, and Willow.

My baby girl name choices were (BRACE YOURSELF there were a lot my husband and I were thinking of); Ryleigh, Haileigh, Haizley, Ashland, Henslee, Rose, Amelia, Amelie, Calypso Elise, Zhaire, Calliope, Hadleigh, Harper, Delaney, Penelope, Mabel, Mikaela, Willow, Wren, Winnie, Averee and ... Quinn

thank you everyone💕💕 I think I’m going to go with Averie. I fell in love with it a tad more than Aria.

I think Aria is adorable! Plus she’s your baby, if you like it go for it!!
Everyone in my family gave me the “really” look when I said my daughters name was going to be Emersyn “Emmy” but they love it now.

I’m due in July with our baby girl and we’re naming her Bellamy

There are ALWAYS going to be people who don’t live the name you’ve chosen. Don’t let it get to you, it’s not their kid and you can’t please everybody.

Adelaide or Adalynn (Addy) are cute

I’ve always like the names Lillith and Kiara 😊

Nancy 🥜

I absolutely LOVE the name aria 😍❤️

Aria is beautiful! Believe me- they’ll love the name when they see the beautiful baby it belongs to :)

Zhuri, Ava, Aracely, Eva, London, Olivia

I love Anai or Anais, Auden, and Maeve

Amaris means "you are loved" in Latin, thats gonna be my girls name one day

If I ever had a girl I would use the name valerie, selene or amy (as the middle name for personal reasons) valentina,Gianni I have so many more

Odette

I love the names Charlotte, Gracie, and Adeline

Freyja

Autumn, Julianna, Gabriella

I personally like Aria. I think it’s beautiful. It’s one that I tossed around when picking out my girl name.

My top contenders were
Eliza Virginia
Alexa Nicole
Isabeau (never found a middle name for this one)

We didn’t pick any of those for our little one due in January.

Also if you like it that is all that matters. As far as not being able to pronounce it people have trouble with even simple names at times.

Girl names I love: Sienna. Brielle. Makayla. Iris. Olivia. Amaris.

I love Zara ❤️

I keep the name as secret only after birth people will know it. Exactly to avoiding any comments and critics.
My daughters name is Félicia Béatrix.

My friend named her daughter Aria. (Are-E-ah)

Names I like...

River (my daughter's name)
Gabriella
Leia
Willow
Mae
Talia
Dakota
Lily

Jasmine, Anita, Giselle, Diana

Ruby!

Penelope

Amethyst!

My girls are Ava & Isla (pronounced eye-la). I LOVE Aria

I LOVE Aria, and it seems simply to pronounce to me! Suggestions; Everly, Ava, Olivia, Ella .

I like the name Aria. There’s always gonna be people who judge, just remember it’s your baby so choose the name you love! I was stuck on the name Avia for a girl, turns out I’m having a boy lol

That was the name I originally chose but we recently changed it to Aviana. Still love Aria though!

Presley (it's my daughters name😊), Everleigh/ley, Addison, Madison, Addilyn, Berkeley, Aubrey, Dakota, Kennedy, McKenzie, Avery, Jamie, Kelsey, Layla, Kailey, Henley, Faith, Grace, Abby/ey, Isabella, Emma, Mia, Olivia, Charolette, Amelia... those are just some😊

Harper

Luna Marie is beautiful

Absolutely LOVE Aria! It was on the top of my list for girls name :)

I've finally done it

I have finally done it. I have finally become the trope, the stereotype.

I have become bitter, resentful, and very overwhelmed and overloaded. I am very unhappy and hit burnout. And I snapped at my husband last night. I work full-time, and work has been very busy so im working late a lot. Im also in grad school. I also have a toddler that has become VERY clingy with me. My husband works shorter days but commutes, so he usually gets home after me by an hour or more. When he gets home, he usually heads to the restroom for at least 30 mins when he gets home. And now my toddler doesnt want anything to do with him. So im doing all the toddler duties until bed. I dont get 5 mins to myself. Not for almost 2 years. I finally hit my wall. I have also, somehow, become my MILs medical ride service and she somehow has an appt every week, it seems?! Shes not sick!! My husband was complaining that he needs to change routine to fit in a workout sometimes, and I lost it. I have been BEGGING for 5 mins to myself for months. I have been telling him how im not good, im going to burn out for months. And between his attitude and him complaining (which really got me b/c he blames me for not being able to work out?! Saying I need help when he gets home so he just cant workout now) I just lost it completely. I told him how unfair my life has become and I have the entire mental and emotional load and it is just not fair. He got mad at me and said "hes trying" when hes literally not trying at all. What do I do?? No one is taking the load from me! And im done and dont know what to do now.
I do not like this version of me.

If yall still giving your kids processed food, pls seek help

I understand not everybody can afford healthy ingredients all the time, but I’m seeing so many moms on social media giving they kids artificial cereals, coffee, frozen pancakes, velveetta Mac and cheese, hot Cheetos, kraft, the list goes on. I’m sorry but are yall not capable of cooking from scratch or ?? On top of that, if you still using canola and vegetable oil in 2026 you gotta stop. Am I the only one that notices this ???

AITA?

This isn't a major issue, just wondering if I'm being a bit of an asshole.

• I do shift work, 5 out of 7 days, full-time.
• My partner works from home (mostly, sometimes he goes into the office) M-F, full-time.

Anyway, whenever I have a day off during the week he gets in his feelings when I make myself food (breakfast and lunch) but not him. His reason is he's working, I'm not - Which is fair but I've asked him how many times on a weekend has he gotten up, on his day off and made me breakfast and a lunch to take with me to work? You guessed it, 0.

So basically, just because I'm at home I don't think the responsibility to feed him should automatically fall on me when he manages to feed himself just fine while I'm at work.

Big vent!

Hi mums.
I'm a first time mum in my 40s to twin boys.They are almost 5 months old and the biggest miracle in my life!
I am struggling!!!
I'm pretty sure I have ppa as my pregnancy was a very high risk and all I remember was crying from anxiety of all the ifs!Thankfully even born at 35 weeks and skinny,didn't need iu time.
My husband is not helping much because he's always too busy with work.He will "look" after them usually between 8pm-12am so I can have a chance to sleep.
He expects me to just sleep when I touch the pillow,even though I hear tje babies crying and him don't really bother because most of the times he'll be on his laptop working.
When I tell him I can't relax to fall asleep because I feel you r neglecting the babies,he says I'm the problem becauae I'm always there with them and don't give them alone time!!
I am angry!!I am furious!!
I can't keep.up.with housework becauae someone alwaya neess me and most of the times they nap I either cook and clean tje kitchen,do laundry or try and take a quick nap.
He doesn't help.around the house,becauae..guess what?always super busy.
I asked him nicely we could clean the house together every Saturday morning so it's easier and quicker for both of us and he said no,because he has a lot of work but probably wants to sleep until 12 or 2.
2 days ago a button of his coat ripped and I told him I'll sew it these days.
Earlier this morning while running late for his work,as always,he weara the coat and told him didn't get the chance to fix the button and sarcastically said..of.course u didn't!!!
I spent all night awake because one of the babies had congested nose and we've been trying to reduce one fees at night.
I wanted to punch him!!He left and I started crying...I cry so much,even at 5 months pp...
I can't go on like this anymoreeeee...
The crying in my ears is constant..my head is always numb..I've gained so much weight and can't find the strength to get back on track..
Even if I try to.find a therapist to just talk,is it gonna help?I really don't know😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

Avoidant husband

I love my husband and he is a good man. We have some issues in our relationship however, as he has an avoidant attachment style (finds romance/intimacy/being emotional difficult). This comes from him having to be independent from a young age and having quite an abusive mother.
The issues in our relationship are mainly around a lack of sex and intimacy. I think the problem is that to feel turned on, I need to feel connected and wanted. My husband (being avoidant) will usually make jokes about being horny whereas I would want to have someone make me feel beautiful/sexy to get in the mood.
It sounds terrible but I've sometimes had dreams about exes that would make me feel this way, and the romance we had (eye contact, intensity, deep words). It makes me feel really guilty but I feel like i'm starved of that. My husband would like a lot more sex but I can't always force myself if I'm not feeling it.
We've spoken a bit about therapy but I know its often really expensive so we probably wouldn't be able to afford it. Do you have any suggestions please? I know that neither of us are wrong in what we want, just different but I'm scared about whether we can fix it or if we're doomed?

Toddler snacks in the morning ?

Hey.

My 14m is clearly going through a growth spurt. He’s a fussy eater but recently started having two breakfasts with the childminder and that’s even after milk in the morning.

He wakes at 6am and we leave around 7:05am. Has 6oz when he wakes but then is seemly hungry looking for snacks before we leave. The only issue is, he’s a fussy eater and won’t sit and eat fruit etc so struggling to think what I can give him that’s suitable.

Any fussy eater suitable ideas of what I can make or get him to snack on whilst we finish getting ready to get out the door?
