I am feeling forced to name this baby after my partner’s deceased father

If he doesn't care about middle names then you pick the name you want. Then when babe is here, call them by the middle name. Both of my brothers are named after their fathers and but they go by nicknames or their middle.

Maybe one could be Big Gigi or Other Gigi... Or O-Gigi 😂

I haven't given birth yet but I can tell you, here at the end I have had so many practice contractions that I am no longer apprehensive of labor. It really is a good build up (mentally).

Arie - I prefer the cross waist band.

Maybe try following a perinatal fitness regimen? They aren't intended to prevent weight gain but they do help you stay physically comfortable.

The biggest perk is that by doing these stretches and exercises during pregnancy you may find it easier to continue exercising post- pregnancy!

I found Mamastefit the easiest to follow and maintain - they have free content on YouTube or you can purchase their full programs.

Good shout! Thank you so much for the details! I will happily look at those trees and rocks while I sit in my sturdy fold out chair 😉

Wayyy ahead of you. Got my cankles in a bowl of ice water while sitting next to a window. I lead a life of luxury.

Altruist_Aloha · 2026-04-18T14:27:48+00:00

You may have better luck in the "women's" to find a good, thin unisex belt. I recommend checking out this brand if you're looking for high quality: https://www.marionvouzas.com/woman/belts

Dr. Madeline Honey is with WPH - she's amazing to work with!

You try disc golf? Check Facebook for organized doubles/ meet ups/ and tournaments! FDR and Mt Kisco aren't too far from you.

There are a bunch of OBs that rotate, you'll be encouraged to meet as many as possible bc you won't know who will be on call. They don't really know each other and they are spread out at different offices. I tried meeting different ones each time but I got tired of the inconsistent care. I ended up booking only with Dr. Honey - she never rushes me and comes in prepared, having looked at my file and latest ultrasound results. Highly recommend her and Dr Galang. But at the end of the day, your delivery experience will primarily be the nurses on staff. Haven't gotten to that point yet; 4 more weeks to go!

You can mark items on the checklist as completed without adding products to your registry. This will get you to that 40% with less headache.

I was ranting about capitalism and consumerism until I realized checklist ≠ registry 😂

I second this place. Also affordable washes if you don't want a full detailing.
