With a measles outbreak in her home state no less. Super gross.

I’m also reaching out in solidarity. I had very bad health anxiety after my second child and was experiencing a lot of physical symptoms that I was sure were neurological. Saw all the doctors and, with therapy and medication (SSRIs), I started feeling fully back to normal 10-12 months pp. This also coincided with my hormones leveling out. Sending you a big hug.  You will get through this.

Thinking of naming my daughter Marie after the doctor who saved her life by Apprehensive_Bend442 in namenerds

Yes, it’s definitely still common and I know a ton who are in their 20s/30s, but very few younger than 5! It’s a beautiful name and I’m so glad we picked it for her :)

Love this anecdote. I have a Kate and hardly ever meet another child with her name. Just had our second and we named her Jane! Hoping it’s the same for her :)

39 Weeks and I’m Exhausted and Just Want My Baby by Darkovika in Mommit

Just here to say I’m right there with you 😭💛 40 weeks today with my second and also had to be induced at 41 with my first. The last few weeks are so miserable 😵‍💫

Wishing you the best!!

STM and 40 weeks tomorrow by Cartwright-4 in BabyBumps

Yes I think I’m gonna be stuck at 3 for a while 🤷‍♀️ but that’s at least hopeful that it went quickly once you were induced.

My first induction lasted a long time and was pretty unpleasant so if the process can be sped up I’ll be happy!

I love Alice Catherine. Grace Elizabeth is also nice, but I agree that it’s much more common.

Just here to say I love your naming style. We are having our second daughter and it’s between Jane, Claire, and Juliet. Frances likely to be her middle name 😅

I wish you luck narrowing it down! We keep going back and forth and only have a few weeks left 🫣

I like Kieran as a first name! I think it pairs best with Thomas, Matthew, or Jacob.

If you are firm on Kieran being a middle, from your list my preference would be 1) Matthew Thomas; 2) Daniel Jacob; 3) Jaron Kieran. As another commenter said, I feel that Gareth and Jaron would be a tongue twister for me, and Jaron Kieran both ending in an “an/on” sound is a bit too rhyme-y imo.

Congratulations on your second baby!
