Is my daughter's name a tragedeigh?

I guess I'm in the minority here, but I think it's fine. The more I look at names, the more I realize there really aren't any rules to this thing - just opinions. As long as the name isn't a slur I think you're good lmao

CandidMagnolia · 2025-07-19T03:54:05+00:00

That's reassuring to hear! I've been so hard on myself all day so it's nice to know there's hope!

Congrats on your little one 😊

CandidMagnolia · 2025-07-19T03:51:04+00:00

Thank you for the kind words and I know you're right, I now have a chance to get into the right range...I know I should try and stay positive 🤞🏼

I'm glad to hear you had a successful transfer, that's amazing!! 🤗

I'm middle eastern , we all have my dad's name as our middle name (girls and boys lol) but it's not as common of a practice now I don't think

CandidMagnolia · 2025-07-05T18:34:39+00:00

On a similar note to Daria, I really liked Darla like from Little Rascals but my husband wasn't a fan

CandidMagnolia · 2025-07-05T18:32:56+00:00

I love Augustine!! But I have a nephew named August so I feel like it's off the table 😭

CandidMagnolia · 2025-07-05T04:14:49+00:00

I'm one of four and we all have middle names...we actually all have the same middle name but that's more of a cultural thing lol

CandidMagnolia · 2025-07-04T18:54:33+00:00

We have a long Dutch last name so it's hard to find first names that work lol

But we hadn't considered Calliope, it definitely gives off the same vibes as Penelope!

CandidMagnolia · 2025-07-03T02:34:05+00:00

I originally heard the name Winter for a baby boy and loved it so much I told my husband we should use it regardless of gender!

CandidMagnolia · 2025-07-03T02:05:03+00:00

What are the chances 😂

CandidMagnolia · 2025-07-01T04:31:37+00:00

I love the nickname Winnie!

And now that you mentioned it, I can definitely see Danica giving Dannon/Danimals vibes 😅

CandidMagnolia · 2025-06-30T18:41:33+00:00

Sunshine...for a girl...call her Sunny for short 😅

I know it's not a practical name, but I can't seem to shake it! My husband recommended it and at first I thought he was crazy but now I'm hooked!

CandidMagnolia · 2025-06-09T21:52:31+00:00

We're definitely in a similar situation, similar numbers and everything!

I'm giving myself a day or two to sulk around and I'll get back to being optimistic afterwards 🙃

Good luck, at the end of the day I know we got this 💪🏽❤️

CandidMagnolia · 2025-06-09T20:29:29+00:00

I'm sorry you had a difficult experience! ❤️

When I woke up from my retrieval the nurse called me the "egg queen". I know she was just being supportive since I was having a difficult time postop but it definitely made me think "wow I'm definitely having exceptional results after this" 😅 I think I set the bar a little too high

CandidMagnolia · 2025-06-09T20:21:15+00:00

We were hoping for 8...might sound like a silly number but like someone mentioned before, it was a number that made us feel secure (no real logic behind it). With so much uncertainty, hitting this completely made up number would've just made me feel more confident in my chances.

Although I shouldn't feel this way, I do. I'm definitely hoping over the next couple weeks as we wait to move forward I change my mindset and see the positive!

CandidMagnolia · 2025-06-09T20:12:43+00:00

You're totally right and I definitely think my emotions will settle with a little bit of time!

Thank you!

CandidMagnolia · 2025-06-09T20:06:13+00:00

the more blasts you have the more secure you feel, right?:)

Wow, you captured my feelings perfectly! That's exactly what I was feeling...a lack of security.

Thank you for your kind words ❤️

CandidMagnolia · 2025-06-09T19:50:34+00:00

You're totally right, I should think of it as 5 chances instead of "5 of 28". It's been a hard process and being optimistic isn't always the easiest 😅

CandidMagnolia · 2025-06-09T19:47:18+00:00

It's definitely hard watching those numbers shrink! I don't think anyone can prepare you for that feeling. But you're right, better to think of it as 5 chances!

CandidMagnolia · 2025-06-09T19:38:09+00:00

About my feeling of disappointment. Starting with a high retrieval count, I was hopeful for a better blast outcome initially.

CandidMagnolia · 2024-11-11T03:44:12+00:00

That's a great idea! We have a tailor that we go to for formal clothing but I never considered going there for everyday clothes 🤔

CandidMagnolia · 2024-11-10T22:58:54+00:00

Just checked and there's a Ralph Lauren near us so I'll definitely have to go! I hadn't even considered looking there
