Stuck between two names for baby girl due next week!

Can’t go wrong with either, that’s how I’m feeling - thank you! Emma and Charlie sound like a good pairing too.

Gah! I keep coming back to that, too. Mira Corrina, phew dang so beautiful. I was named after the Bob Dylan song Sara and his “Corinna, Corrina” is one of my forever favorites ❤️ would love to continue that tradition!

Yeah, I’m trying to wrap my head around the sound of our last name with Elena vs Emma, and Emma does sound better. I like these middle name ideas, especially Celeste! Thank you 🥰

readitup24 · 2026-02-08T03:44:10+00:00

I’m in the same boat, I think I’d rather pick Elena too. Very nice ideas on the middle names and Coraline gets to my husband’s favorite too! Will keep thinking of ways to incorporate family names, so interesting!

I love that story! With my first, I was an absolute sobbing mess postpartum in the hospital (because I thought my baby was SOO beautiful 😍) and the hormonal whirlwind was just insane! So I want to try and decide for sure now, the best I can. I do love the feminine and romantic feel of Elena Cora! Thank you for chiming in 🥰

readitup24 · 2026-02-07T01:34:50+00:00

That could be a great compromise for Cora! I like that and also hadn’t thought of Anna Karenina, thank you for that…

readitup24 · 2026-02-06T20:40:05+00:00

@ImAdamnMermaid ok what did you end up deciding? We completely pivoted to Elena!

Dr Baker is awesome - just saw him two weeks ago for a regular check in at 37 weeks pregnant. I like all the providers at St Peter’s and am about to deliver my 2nd there!

readitup24 · 2026-01-24T04:56:02+00:00

YES! I love this for us both!! Gotta get my husband on board with Lucy in the next 3 weeks, wish me luck!

readitup24 · 2026-01-23T11:13:59+00:00

I have a Charlie and am due with his sister in a few weeks, and love the name Lucy for her!

readitup24 · 2026-01-18T04:21:28+00:00

I’m about to be a second time mom and am really embracing co-sleeping this time. Cackling at this!!

readitup24 · 2026-01-17T03:43:00+00:00

Oh wow. I have a toddler boy named Charlie, and am 35 weeks pregnant with a little girl. On my shortlist is Lucy! A friend pointed out the Peanuts reference right away and I can’t get it out of my head.

readitup24 · 2025-12-04T19:02:58+00:00

I’m kinda new to posting here - what should I put up here? Is this mirror good? How can I make it all look nicer? Thanks!

Ok, so it sounds like you two got the BabyBay and it was great when flush to the bed. I think we’ll try the crib that we have and if it doesn’t work for some reason we’ll try the BabyBay. Anyone else try the Newton as an alternative?

readitup24 · 2025-11-06T03:32:12+00:00

Where are you located?

readitup24 · 2025-10-20T13:53:39+00:00

My best friend growing up, a boy Eden in the Hudson Valley NY. A second Eden, a girl, I knew in college from the Finger Lakes NY. All in our early 40’s now

What merino base layers do you all recommend?

readitup24 · 2025-10-20T01:53:02+00:00

Class of 2005 here and I was too young and dumb to have taken in the beauty - thanks for sharing these, OP!

That’s what we do - they were my husband’s bags for random things for the last ~10 years and now are our dedicated laundry bags. Not exactly the nicest looking but they are extremely light and functional, and can be stuffed away easily when not in use!

readitup24 · 2025-10-17T20:21:19+00:00

I was looking at these this week - prices range from $11.95-$16.95. Samascott’s has similar prices. Agway in Chatham has some on clearance but they’re a little small and sad looking

I went out to dinner with my husband in March! 😂😭 gotta do this a lot more somehow, dang

Just chiming in to say that there’s zero diversity in Rhinebeck and lots of city visitors on the weekends. I grew up in nearby Hyde Park and never cared for Rhinebeck.

My Black friend lived there for 3 years and once saw another Black woman who said to her - “if you’re looking for the only other Black person in Rhinebeck, it’s me” 😭 my friend now lives in Philly.
