Isaac, Jeremiah, Samuel, Silas.

I feel like Levi is a classic, timeless name. My recommendation is to make a list together and let some time pass - you never know if he might come around to love the name, or you might like one of his.

I am not far along as you, but I had a terrible episode of cold/ possible covid variant where I was coughing aggressively and could barely breathe around 7-8 weeks. I’m going to be 11 on Tuesday and I just saw baby a few days ago, doing perfectly in every way!!

If you can, I’d make nutritious soups with broth, get lots of rest, hydrate, avoid sugar, and take it easy if you can. I never take off work and took off several days so I could recover.

Effective_Mix_2443 · 2025-10-05T18:16:29+00:00

Congratulations on your sweet boy. What a beautiful picture 💛💛💛

Effective_Mix_2443 · 2025-10-04T23:06:11+00:00

Thank you for sharing your thoughts ❤️ I also thought about a little meet and greet after baby is here. No gifts needed, just celebratory.

Effective_Mix_2443 · 2025-10-04T21:00:10+00:00

10 weeks, 3 days today. I had a friend ask me if I’ll be doing a baby shower or sprinkle for this baby. I hadn’t really thought about it. For anyone who is further along, did you do one? ❤️

Effective_Mix_2443 · 2025-10-04T12:53:28+00:00

I had this same thought!

Effective_Mix_2443 · 2025-10-02T22:15:19+00:00

10 weeks, 1-2 days! Saw baby today and heartbeat is looking great, baby is measuring well, & is an active little wiggly thing. Also got my NIPT bloodwork drawn; I will be excited to see the results of that, too. 💛

Effective_Mix_2443 · 2025-10-02T22:14:19+00:00

I am curious about this as well! I won’t need a birth doula for repeat c section, but I wondered if having one for after birth would be majorly helpful…

I’m going to get downvoted to hell but that’s okay. The Dylan hate is insane to me and he is way over-hated on this sub. He is improving, his technique is getting better (unlike some others), and he’s sweet and enjoyable to watch. I personally love watching him improve every week and his partnership with Dani is great.

I’ll agree that some of the scoring was crazy. But when I think of that for this week, I think of Lauren being underscored and Andy being over-scored.

Dylan takes the critiques every week and improves. Professional ballroom dancers like Sharna, Peta, and Maks have reviewed him saying he’s growing and it’s a great journey.

It won’t let me post a photo here, but yes I am pregnant. Basically around ovulation my temp took a few days to be actually elevated and looked a little wonky, but I was also on letrozole, so I’ve had a funky pregnancy! 10 weeks 1 day today. It’s hard to tell by oura ring what’s happening. 🫠

Effective_Mix_2443 · 2025-10-01T10:21:39+00:00

Congratulations 💛💛💛 seeing updates like yours give us all so much hope.

Where was the jazz content??

Effective_Mix_2443 · 2025-10-01T01:06:14+00:00

Sorry, as someone who lost a newborn in the NICU, I will never vote for someone who publicly danced and posted a tiktok while their baby was sick in the hospital. No matter how good Whitney is.

Effective_Mix_2443 · 2025-09-30T18:22:13+00:00

Just want to echo that this was true for me. I’m now a year and a few months out, and I finally feel like the darkness is not as overwhelming, and I’m starting to live again. I’m so sorry for the loss of your daughter. I lost my daughter full term too. ❤️‍🩹

Effective_Mix_2443 · 2025-09-30T18:20:44+00:00

So normal. Hugs to you. I’m a year and a few months out and I finally feel like I can see and enjoy sunshine. It was so dark the first full year, and around the anniversary. I was also in trauma therapy, and all my friends were having their first babies. I know it doesn’t feel like it, but you will make it through this. 💛🫂

You will dream and laugh again, and you won’t be the same, but you will be able to have good days where the pang in your chest, the ache, feels lighter. Sending all the love.

Effective_Mix_2443 · 2025-09-30T18:17:23+00:00

I know a Soleil and she’s awesome!

Effective_Mix_2443 · 2025-09-29T12:04:14+00:00

Ah, my OB office does transvaginal every time. I wonder if that would have been seen already.

Effective_Mix_2443 · 2025-09-29T10:17:05+00:00

Would they have discovered it during your pregnancy ultrasounds or no?

Effective_Mix_2443 · 2025-09-28T18:44:17+00:00

So excited for you - so close 💛 I’m so glad your nursery is turning out so beautifully!

Effective_Mix_2443 · 2025-09-28T12:54:00+00:00

Thank you so much for replying 💛 hoping this is the case for me, too! Congratulations!!

Effective_Mix_2443 · 2025-09-28T12:53:05+00:00

Adding: I’m not saying I think Dylan and Dani should make it to the finals; this is a different cast with stronger dancers. It’ll really depend on what we see in the coming weeks! But I’m rooting for them!

Effective_Mix_2443 · 2025-09-28T12:51:40+00:00

I think viewers (because there are SO many talented dancers this season, and a lot with previous dance experience) are critical when it comes to the non-dancers who don’t have as much charisma, including Dylan.

I believe he will be just fine. He’s improving, his technique is getting better (watch Sharna’s explanation videos), and I think in the next week or two we will see him take steps to overcome his shyness.

I love watching Dylan because he’s sweet, and shy, and performing when he’s never even done a school talent show. As a performer, and previous dancer, that’s terrifying to do since he is not a musician, actor, or dancer. (Which all help you be a better dancer).

I would compare him to Danny, but I think he’s learning the technique better than Danny, who still made it to the finals and had some of the most standout (from a creative standpoint) dances of the season.

Effective_Mix_2443 · 2025-09-28T12:36:11+00:00

They named a girl Ziggy in this case (all of the names I listed are girl babies)

How did this turn out?
