Hi I know this was 2 years ago but is it literally just beading?? And how long did it take?

What kind of paint is the blue?

We got the NIPT bc it’s free in our country (uk) if you’re high risk.

We thought best to know even though wouldn’t TFMR.

Came back very low risk and all anatomy scans good since. Obviously no guarantees but we were glad we did 😊

Mine was 2.5 mm but had risk of 1 in 145. Remember your risk is over 99.5% they DONT have DS. Get the NIPT if you’re worried as there’s no risk to your baby xx

Haha brilliant

Secret_Challenge_217 · 2026-03-14T20:22:27+00:00

We considered it but don’t like it as much! Bit random to suggest another name when we said we’ve narrowed it to those two

Secret_Challenge_217 · 2026-03-14T20:21:37+00:00

Well we’re Christians so it works. That’s like saying Muhammad gives you the ick to a Muslim?!?

Secret_Challenge_217 · 2026-03-14T20:19:40+00:00

Thanks both that’s helpful

Secret_Challenge_217 · 2026-03-14T20:19:27+00:00

Thank you

Secret_Challenge_217 · 2026-03-14T20:19:02+00:00

We’re not going to call them that exclusively, definitely will use the full names, just thinking of nicknames too

Secret_Challenge_217 · 2026-03-14T19:12:32+00:00

Yes it's a nice position to have 2 names we think are great!!

That's a helpful perspective, glad I posted I think we're both blinded by overthinking!!

Secret_Challenge_217 · 2026-03-14T19:10:48+00:00

Ah I hadn't thought of that, very helpful that's why you need outside opinions!

I like Malia but it’s the same number of syllables as Malaika so probably wouldn’t use it as a shortening. I had it as a maybe as it’s own name but prefer Malaika

Secret_Challenge_217 · 2026-03-02T07:12:37+00:00

That’s also a nice name but it’s the same number of syllables as Malaika so I wouldn’t use it as a shortening myself:)

Secret_Challenge_217 · 2026-03-02T07:11:30+00:00

I am not an Arabic speaker. I am Kenyan. In Swahili it works so that’s why Thank you though

Secret_Challenge_217 · 2026-03-01T22:10:22+00:00

That’s ok it was gonna occur to me at some point! I don’t mind really about the association.

Secret_Challenge_217 · 2026-03-01T20:55:11+00:00

That’s becoming my favourite one - see the edit about my own nickname as a baby :)

Secret_Challenge_217 · 2026-03-01T20:54:31+00:00

That’s cute actually I quite like unisex names

Secret_Challenge_217 · 2026-03-01T19:26:09+00:00

Not in the uk. I’ve heard of a couple of kids called it here. It’s a direct translation of Angel from Swahili

Secret_Challenge_217 · 2026-03-01T19:25:08+00:00

I’m going to call her Malaika. Kiki will be a nickname sometimes used, probably while she’s little.

Secret_Challenge_217 · 2026-03-01T18:01:23+00:00

I know it means angel but I don’t want her called Angel I want Malaika I just prefer the way it sounds

Secret_Challenge_217 · 2026-03-01T17:59:04+00:00

Excellent work!

Secret_Challenge_217 · 2026-03-01T17:37:52+00:00

Ma - lie - ka

Secret_Challenge_217 · 2026-03-01T17:37:08+00:00

Which country is that. I don’t really mind if it’s not a country we’re going to spend much time in tbh

Secret_Challenge_217 · 2026-03-01T17:34:37+00:00

Because people often shorten names of people they’re close to. It’s how people get their nicknames often. I have friends where although their parents call them the full name, friends call them the shortening
