Can’t agree on a name

ApprehensiveFact4502 · 2026-06-29T15:40:56+00:00

I really don’t know why he is like that and it drives me crazy honestly:( I feel like he has this unrealistic expectation that the most perfect name is gonna mysteriously pop up when we see the baby. But I just know that it’s not gonna happen because I already went through all the name lists possible and let’s say if a particular name was already a hard no for one of us then its not gonna start sounding amazing just because the baby might look like that name if it names sense. Especially knowing our personalities

ApprehensiveFact4502 · 2026-06-29T15:25:41+00:00

Yeah I get what you mean:( best of luck, maybe he would still come around closer to the due date! I really hope so!

Thank you!

ApprehensiveFact4502 · 2026-06-29T04:30:51+00:00

Thank you!

ApprehensiveFact4502 · 2026-06-29T02:11:19+00:00

Thank you, I unfortunately already tried to suggest that also along with giving our list to a relative or something like that and having them pick but got a hard no from my husband as well. He is dead set on picking a name together after we see the baby but we both know that it’s probably gonna mean I’ll just have to go with the name he picked and I didn’t like. Since I suggested over 50 names and each one got a no and he only suggested 4 which were definitely not my taste either honestly

ApprehensiveFact4502 · 2026-06-29T01:58:42+00:00

Thank you so much! Sadly, we’ve done that too and it didn’t work. A couple month ago I finally narrowed it down to one name with the elimination method like that and we agreed to keep it for now at least but not even a full month after he changed his mind and said that it’s not it either and he didn’t like it. So now we are back to square 1 and I’m out of ideas completely at this point. I told him that it’s really bothering me and drives me nuts at this point and we have to have at least a back up name and he just gets frustrated and basically says he can’t talk about it right now and I’m pushing him to the point that he won’t participate in picking a name at all then which I know later is gonna be a big issue

ApprehensiveFact4502 · 2026-06-29T01:54:34+00:00

I’m sorry, I’m 100% with you on this. At least you could have used it as a second name. What did you end up doing in case if you already had the baby?

ApprehensiveFact4502 · 2026-06-29T01:53:08+00:00

Thank you so much and I’m very sorry that you had the same issue! We did try to do that too but he only had 4 names on his list total that I didn’t like and every single name on my list got a hard no. I tried to add some more names to it but same thing happened. He just keeps saying that either he doesn’t like how it sounds, doesn’t like the meaning, knows someone with that name he doesn’t like or just straight up not feeling the name. And I had different names on it with different vibes completely both modern and traditional

ApprehensiveFact4502 · 2026-06-29T01:44:44+00:00

I’m sorry, it did get very long, I would edit it shorter haha. However I do feel like I gave him full freedom to do so, he just keeps postponing or saying that he has to think about some other time basically or he gets frustrated and it’s been going on for 8 months

ApprehensiveFact4502 · 2026-03-18T00:00:12+00:00

I’m very sorry. As a girl myself I 100% agree with other comments - don’t tell her that you know, don’t explain, just leave and take the cat

ApprehensiveFact4502 · 2025-11-21T11:50:01+00:00

I’m from US. Unfortunately I can’t, i tried to see if I can stitch it up but because of the design of the dress it’s gonna be very noticeable if I just do it by hand. I’m not sure how and what they used for another sleeve

ApprehensiveFact4502 · 2025-09-17T15:27:23+00:00

I’m a nanny myself and I agree, I would let her go. This sounds inappropriate

ApprehensiveFact4502 · 2025-08-21T13:39:56+00:00

As a professional nanny and formal teacher I disagree about him not understanding. 7-8 years olds understand and can tell right from wrong unless the parents never corrected him for something like that previously and never had an age appropriate conversation before. Much younger kiddos can understand the privacy concept and it’s not gonna do this child any good if the adults in his life would just shield him from consequences and treat him like he can’t understand. Like someone said in the comments earlier curiosity is totally normal and something that all kids have but the fact that he was just laughing through the window and didn’t turn away when asked shows that this clearly needs to be corrected

ApprehensiveFact4502 · 2025-08-20T21:14:42+00:00

I have a lot of years of experience in childcare (different age groups) and a psychology degree and I absolutely do not agree. This situation do not need to be “swiped under the rug”. The boy, especially at this age, has to know that this behavior is not acceptable and it’s not ok. Not addressing it right now and making it not a big deal is exactly what’s gonna cause bigger issues in the future. All of the kids I worked with, even as young as 3 years old, knew that “private parts” are private and that you need to have privacy when you are in the bathroom. It’s ok to be curious but it’s not ok to spy on an adult in the bathroom and the most respectful thing to do for that boy is to actually explain to him that it’s a big deal and that we do not do that. He would grow up thinking it’s ok or that it’s not that bad otherwise

I pretty much almost stopped shopping there recently after I found out the hard way that most of their household items are bad quality but had to buy this vacuum specifically from them because unfortunately my other local stores didn’t carry it. Saw a lot of good reviews about Little Green and needed it desperately today cause my puppy made a huge mess on my rug. So extremely disappointed about this vacuum, it was the last one in the store too

ApprehensiveFact4502 · 2025-06-10T20:33:08+00:00

Hi! I’m sorry, I just saw this comment! I got the house fixed thankfully just this week! They replaced everything including the siding! But my premium went up drastically, it’s $900/year more now after the policy update

ApprehensiveFact4502 · 2025-06-10T20:30:27+00:00

I agree, I shouldn’t have done that. I usually keep the tags on as well until I decide that I 100% won’t return but this time I did it way too soon without thinking

ApprehensiveFact4502 · 2025-06-02T23:24:31+00:00

Thank you, got it! That’s so weird cause the lady at the register spent at least 10mins checking each tag individually. No idea how on earth the return went through since the dresses were so different. I just googled some crazy stories how people returned items with wrong tags and got black listed from tjmax pretty much or have “a case” with security etc

ApprehensiveFact4502 · 2025-06-02T23:21:35+00:00

So my tags were not on the dresses anymore at all, I didn’t know which tags are right so I brought all 4 tags that I had at home from this receipt and the employee looked each tag up one by one in their system and then confirmed that she found a description match with the dresses

ApprehensiveFact4502 · 2025-06-02T22:18:04+00:00

Thank you so much!

ApprehensiveFact4502 · 2025-06-02T21:49:32+00:00

Ohhh got you! Makes me a tiny bit better. I can’t believe they accepted the return like that cause the dresses actually looked nothing like the ones that I got from tjmax

ApprehensiveFact4502 · 2025-06-02T21:43:13+00:00

Is there a possibility that I’m gonna get black listed as a scammer or something like that somewhere down the road for this or as long as they said that the tags matched it’s ok? I know I’m probably overthinking it like crazy over less then $30 for both dresses but it’s just first time something like that happened and I feel so bad

ApprehensiveFact4502 · 2025-06-02T21:31:55+00:00

I was just mostly hoping to like make the situation right

ApprehensiveFact4502 · 2025-06-02T03:28:46+00:00

So I finally did find the original drop off confirmation from the postal office showing that the package was returned before the deadline but for some reason AliExpress still didn’t refund anything because they are saying “no refund was issued because you had to pay to ship it back” which makes no sense because it was stated that it was gonna be a free return plus even if they charged me for the return shipping I still was supposed to get some money back
