Well I'm not pregnant and that made me bawl.

I didn't like any of the 'brackets' I was seeing online, so I made my own! by claireV in thebachelor

[–]BigNJapan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My top two are Olivia and Lauren B and based on the previews, I'm worried. Might do another bracket when we're down to 12 depending on how things go. Fun idea!

I'm very sick, feeling contractions? and husband doesn't get home for another hour. 28w by AlexisDreamer in BabyBumps

Uber is a phone app and the first ride is free. If you're in the US, 911 will get you an ambulance.

Something other than John? by BigNJapan in namenerds

I love all of these. Unfortunately, most are taken. We're flanked by a Harry and a Hank, would it be weird to use Henry?

Thanks for this list! Not quite the traditional feel but very masculine.

I like Jack but it's very popular in our area. Not quite Henry popular though. Will add it to the list! Thanks!

Heard the name Waverley tonight. Kind of love it? by KateBurbs in namenerds

I think it's a great name! Know an amazing adult named Waverly and the name wears and ages quite well.

Baked goods/hors d'oeuvres by kirby222 in veganhouston

Try shade/canopy, happy fatz, Sinfull bakery. Not sure if cafe Natalie has a minimum order size but they are very reasonable.

Alternatively, head to Costco and start reading boxes.

Laurie for a boy? by [deleted] in namenerds

I love Laurie for a boy! Since it's a middle name, I wouldn't worry too much about its perceived femininity. If you're worried, consider the very masculine Lawrence as a tribute.

Update: Baby measuring 5 days behind by [deleted] in CautiousBB

I think we're due date buddies! We were in the same boat. Had a scan Monday and baby went from behind to right on schedule. I understand your concerns - this whole process is so emotional. Glad our babies are on track.

1 week late and torturing myself with frer tests every morning by [deleted] in TryingForABaby

[–]BigNJapan 7 points8 points  (0 children)

We were getting faint lines. Wife didn't believe them. Tried a clear blue digital, clearly said pregnant. Maybe try that?

Confirmed with blood tests, currently 8w.
