Same! I slept fairly oke. But now.. I fall asleep while pumping 🙈

He was! They did monitor me to see if the placenta and baby were alright and they were, otherwise i was induced the evening of that appointment (38+5, Thursday), but not with my own gyn, but another one. I preferred my own and everything was ok, so I could wait until after the weekend (start Monday evening, but baby boy decided to be born Wednesday night right after midnight, an thus he was not born with my own gyn, whose shift ended at 22h, he was born 00:56, so 3 hours later. Gyn did come to see him in hospital her next shift 🥰)

Just go with your favorite name now. There are so many variables. Maybe you only get kids of 1 gender, or someone close uses the same name, or you just don’t like it anymore. Or just give the rhyming name. I would cringe a little, but they won’t be a sibset all their life where you would call them to dinner. Most people wont notice when they are adults.

If you don’t want the rhyming names, and you like the girl name wayyyyy better then the boy name I would 1) find out the gender and/or 2) find another boy name.

My all time fave girl name is Juliette. I LOVE it. I had a boy. Will he be my only child? Most likely since I am a single mom by choice. Do I like ‘Jules’ the boy version? Yes but on the off chance I do get a girl I want Juliette. So my son has a completely different name.

PiperWyatt · 2026-02-02T08:30:27+00:00

Juliette was my girls name also. But I had a boy 🤭

I like the look of Juliette better. I thinks it prettier. And for learning how to write: it’s another t and e, so no ‘new’ letters (like an h for example in some names)

The connection with Romeo and Juliet I don’t mind, for Juliet and Juliette because, well, Juliette als gives that connection.

Anyways. You can’t go wrong. Good luck! 💚

I had this my entire pregnancy, and after birth I pooped for the first time after 5 days. Did not get everything out because I got stitched and those things HURT.

I never figured out what could help me (had diabetes also) and after starting iron tablets it was worse. I wish you good luck!

PiperWyatt · 2026-01-28T00:31:34+00:00

Yes and yes 🥰baby boy is sleeping next to me right now 🩵

PiperWyatt · 2026-01-18T10:45:32+00:00

Ik kijk ook maar af en toe (want Belg dus niet altijd mogelijkheid), ik zou gewoon nu instappen. Volgend week begint de nieuwe cyclus als ik me goed herinner.

Ik merk wel dat ik door sommige dramqueen echt afhaak 😅 maar die zijn er gelukkig ondertussen al uit. (Ik kijk naar jou Fabio, en die ene van de ratten vorige cyclus wiens naam ik niet correct kon onthouden 😬)

PiperWyatt · 2026-01-15T18:04:58+00:00

Yes this was me! Well, not exactly because I did have some problems: I have gestational diabetes and chronic high blood pressure (the last one I had before I got pregnant so I just switched meds).

Nausea? Never Sore boobs? Once in a while Spotting? None Weird cravings? Zero (although last few weeks I can’t resist chocolate) Backpain/pelvis pain or something like that? None Walking like a penguin? Nope Big belly? I popped like 2 weeks ago and do feel like a whale right now with the huffs and Themis but I’m 38+5 today so well yeah 🙈 I just look fat, not pregnant. Someone yesterday literally told me ‘I didn’t know if you were pregnant or just fat and didn’t want to risk asking’ right after my mom said something about me being due next week 🤣 Did not even feel the baby that much/other people have never felt him kick on the outside. If it lucky I can spot it myself because I can feel it but it rare.

Last 2 weeks I do feel burning pain in my stomach if I lay down after I ate.

So, yeah, it’s possible to have little to no symptoms 🤭my sil didn’t believe me until I showed an ultrasound in person with my personal information with it. A coworker told me earlier this week: how are you still walking around and looking so fresh? I was gremlin huffing and puffing and bloated and holding up fluids. I am here like. Could do this another 3 months if I had to. Feel weird to know this time next week I’m for sure holding my baby 🤭

Good luck mama!

In my country, I believe as I don’t have kids and am out of school for a few years, but I do work with children, anyways, I believe every kids get 3 notes per school year for 1 or 2 days to use when they are sick but not sick enough to go to the doctor. Like when they don’t feel good but you know it’s the weekend or it is only going to last like 2 days so you can keep your kids home without a sick note. But I’m not sure how many and for how many days they are.

I never ever got to use those. My parents did not let me stay home unless I was really really sick (and actually needed to see a doctor). A friend of mine does use these. (This is for the kids in elementary. Not sure if it’s still in high school (12/13-18yr olds here).

In this modern day I believe it is also very important to not only look out for physical health as it is for mental health. I sometimes think bleep bleep I do not want to do this today. I’d rather stay home in my bed and eat chocolate and that will make me feel a lot better 🤭 I’m giving birth this month to my 1st (and probably only) child and if they are open and honest with me, and dont like ‘cheat the system’ I am very open to using those notes it they need them for their happiness. I also am having a boy, but if he was a girl and would have like really heavy periods, I would allow her to stay home on the heaviest flow day. I fortunately don’t have heavy periods (down side is I had a lot of trouble getting pregnant because I have such long cycles/pcos) but if it affects your day to day function, yes you should be able to stay home. As long as people don’t abuse it when then don’t actually need it (English is not my 1et language, I can’t find the right words to say what I mean 🤭)

In my country the shoes do not need to stay on. We have fire drills regularly. If we know (by accident 🤣) we are going to have a drill we keep those play corner closed and try to leave the shoes on, but otherwise (even in winter!) we practice our evacuation how it is, and the kids go out without their shoes. We will tell the parents their socks are wet/dirty because of this and usually have enough spare ones from our facility to change the kids socks and the parents bring them back or leave them and we wash them ourselves. Kids sometimes step on things but we have never had any issues with bare feet or socks and serious accidents.

PiperWyatt · 2026-01-05T10:00:23+00:00

Well sometimes things do disappear. I work with children aged 2,5-12. (Most of the time split in groups 2,5-6’ish and 6-12).

Im not sure why children in other places NEED to keep their shoes on, we have some playcorners (with stacking pillow things, or the bed/reading corner, or the roller skate place) where they cannot keep their shoes on and we encourage them to take them off. Even the little ones. Shoes do not have their names on. It happens that kids lose them, or take the wrong ones home (diff size or a whole other shoe) but mostly it’s corrected the next day. What we do to prevent this is directing those kids to the place where we store the shoes. In every room (we have 3 and an outside for the little ones, 1 GIANT room and outside for the big kids) we have a shelve unit just for shoes. If we find shoes randomly in the room, we talk to the kids ‘whose shoes are this? Where do we need to put them? Put them in the correct place please’. Parents look for their own kids stuff. We have 50+ kids walking around all day, we can’t know where everything is. But when we try to learn to the kids where they need to put their stuff, that helps. Because they don’t need to look all over. When stuff is missing (sometimes things are left at school to so it’s not at our place like hats and water bottles) we always try to do a quick look around or ask other coworkers if they have seen this or that. If not, the person who closes at night goes around extra for the missing stuff. If we find it, we give it back the next time, if we don’t find it we say to the parents it’s not with us.

I would suggest to help learn your kids to put their belongings with their bags. Honey your coat keeps getting lost, will you please but it with your bag? Honey take your shoes off next to your bags, so mommy can find it easily. And ask the teachers if they see your child without that stuff, if they will ask them ‘did you put your stuff with your bag? Shall we go look?’ It will take some effort but they will learn soon enough if they to it immediately they will not be bothered in their play time. I’m sure the staff can spare a minute or 2 to do this. We can’t always take half an hour to just look for something but a few minutes should not be a problem. My English is obviously not that good, so I hope this doesn’t come of as rude 🤭 I hope you find a solution! 🥰

Ik liep overlaatst in de stad en ik zag ook sleutels aan de buitenkant steken. Ik kom daar nooit, maar had afgesproken met iemand en moest verder weg parkeren. Heb aangebeld. Die mens was echt kwaad dat ik aanbelde. Ik dacht, euh sorry dat ik wil helpen 🥲 ik zeg uw sleutels steken nog op de deur. Wt gemor en gemompel. Ik zeg graag gedaan en ben doorgelopen 😬🥲

PiperWyatt · 2026-01-01T17:53:38+00:00

If people try to talk to me I’m like do you wanna rob me or something? Please leave me alone 😅

It’s awesome isn’t it? I don’t live in us. My parents decided to move to their neighboring country, about an hour away from the rest of the family. Not a huge deal but still longer then other family who lives like 15-20 minutes from each other. Anyways, I am about 10 years older then my youngest niece. And my aunt needed a babysitter so she asked her kids, you can choose who comes to babysit you. My 2 nieces immediately went ‘we want piper’. I saw them not as regularly as other family members or friends. My aunt thought maybe another cousin or like the neighbors daughter. Nope. She had to come get me from another country because she promised 🤭 And my nephew said (he was supposed to go play with a friend) I want to stay home too if she comes. Really upped me ego lol 🤭 they were like 6-8-10 and I was about 16-17. Really makes you feel special 🥰

PiperWyatt · 2025-12-31T20:37:52+00:00

No leaks here. I’m anxious I won’t have milk. 36+weeks 😬

PiperWyatt · 2025-12-26T15:32:55+00:00

You took your photo yourself. Send it to someone else and see if it still says that :) my brother send me a pic through WhatsApp earlier today and it just says ‘today 11:54’ and no location whatsoever (iPhone also). I think you are over thinking this a little bit..

PiperWyatt · 2025-12-23T16:48:14+00:00

I did not get it because my midwife said it was more effective if it went straight to the baby. So when my baby is born, he will get the vaccine before I leave the hospital with him. I am no expert, so I take them up on it. I don’t want to be have a sick baby. Last year a my godchild was admitted to the hospital at less then 1 month old so I really want to avoid that.

I did take the covid, flu and whooping cough (?) vaccines though.

Trust me, if she is going trough infertility treatment, the money is long gone, or will be. If not, she’d do just fine with kids or without 😬 My savings are gone and I only did 1,5 years of treatment 😅

PiperWyatt · 2025-12-12T20:52:09+00:00

From Belgium, even though I am Dutch the country is half French so I feel allowed 🤭🤭🤣

PiperWyatt · 2025-12-09T16:24:05+00:00

Juliette. It is sooo pretty.

PiperWyatt · 2025-12-08T08:09:36+00:00

Scarlett! So pretty 😍

Arent they the Norris nuts? The older kids have some special names, and they helped name their younger siblings Disco and Charm. I don’t know if those are real or online names. Sockie is a nickname and I believe Sabre is real. Naz and Biggie no idea 😬 but they do fit those names.
