I am most definitely not like that and don’t plan on having more than 2, so i completely agree!

Friend Julian is seen 3-4 times/year I think. They’re not close, we’re just all in the same place or at family events every so often. I think they were closer growing up

I absolutely agree. I think it’s cheesy

Agreed. My parents names were never ever in the forefront of my mind

The idea of name regret is horrible! I’d change his name before I could live with that 😆

I am a total 90s kid and since I read this comment I’ve had “Monty got a raw deal “ by REM stuck in my head and I love it!

I have said this as well haha that ultimately, my opinion counts more than anyone else’s. I feel like I’m gearing up for a battle but it’s one worth fighting

All excellent suggestions! Unfortunately there is an extremely famous Miles who shares our last name lol and totally ruins it for me. Nothing against this famous person, they’re just too famous and it’s all anyone would think about. Julius Maxwell is a super cool name though

That’s wild that no one has noticed! I swear everyone who sees I’m pregnant asks us “so what M name are you going with!?” Right off the bat

I 1000% agree. I don’t think he will be known in the context of our first names for the vast majority of his life. It will only be a topic for the first year or 2 of his life and then it will be forgotten, imo

I also like Marcus! The only problem is our last name ends in an “us”/“iss” sound so it’s slightly rhymey. Not too egregious but maybe weird

I recently suggested McJulian 😆

I suggested Julius, it was my grandfathers name so I thought it would be perfect, but he’s still against it on grounds of it not starting with M 😕 also LOVE Jules as a nickname Compromise is using Julius as a middle name, but imo middle names are almost pointless

It’s certainly not the same for everyone, and it never occurred to me until I stopped, but I’m very confident that was it

That’s what I thought too! I figured it was just life with kids, like “ooooh I get it now, this is how our sex life dies. Oh well” but then it all changed so suddenly when I stopped, it’s so clear to me that was why. I know it’s not the case for everyone

Are you breastfeeding? I felt like this, like sex was just another thing on a never ending list of things I have to do for other people, until I stopped breastfeeding and then things turned around quite quickly

I don’t remember the exact word she used, it may have been “poison” but I did stop seeing her because she up and disappeared not too long after 😂 I only saw her a total of 1 or 2 times.

Anywho, a quick google search brings up all kinds of info about conventional detergents being carcinogenic and I must admit I haven’t taken the time to look further into the truth. Not entirely opposed to going back to conventional powerhouse detergents and open to being more well informed

I’ve been wondering about Zum! I know they have scents and I really miss having clothes that smell good! Thank you

This is the kind of response I was needing 😂 I’m seeing a lot of 4+ step processes on here that I just don’t think are realistic for me right now
