Unique (?) names I like for boys are:
Kai, Orion, Storm, Finn, Tristan
And while not unique, I've always loved Ethan and Oliver.
My husband hates all those names so both of our son's names aren't in that list. Lol!

LOVE Orion and Finn...never know, maybe hubby will change his mind ;)
They have some awesome popular names over there...Hugo comes to mind and Bram..which i like because of a character in a game i play with my hubby LOL...i think they also have a really pretty version of Oliver i think spelled Olivier
Olivier is French. I love that too! It's pronounced Oh-Liv-e-ay

Ooh, I love Calvin, Stefan, Niels, and Marco!
Although, being a scientist, I have always loved Kelvin and Pascal for boy names! My DH didn't like those but liked Isaac!

My Ovulation Chart
Holy crap I honestly can't believe that I am still standing... dad had a heart attack, and literally just as we find out he will be okay and they put some stints in my middle daughter comes down with the stomach flu. She's the kind of kid who pukes 2-3 times and is over it so when she continued for 8 hrs straight and it was getting more and more frequent I had to take her to the ER.. i feel completely strung out on stress ATM
Can someone give me hope that just because I've been a wreck this pregnancy that this baby won't be hard wired for stress and more difficult?
I'm sorry to hear all that, how is your Dad doing is he stable?
Obviously I don't know, as I'm a FTM - but I'll spin it this way ....you handled that stress like a trooper, you powered through it.
If you're baby gets any of that, then they might be a hostage negotiator, or something else that requires being calm under pressure :)
My dad is stable, and i told him that only he would think a heart attack was a good idea the week before christmas (joking obviously since nobody can control that by any means)
I dont know that i handled anything like a trooper though, i swear ive got an eye twitch this morning...LOL
All of my pregnancies havent been 'fun' or 'nice per se but this one has been a real doozie...supposedly there is an old wives tale that hard pregnancy = easy baby..lets hope thats true.
Sorry hear this burakoam, glad your dad is stable. I went through a very acutely stressful period when I was pregnant with ds2, it was very intense but of shortish duration, maybe two weeks. He is a very laid back character but so is my other son, so maybe it's just their personality. My youngest is such a happy wee boy and he brings joy to everyone life, so as of yet I see no lasting implications of that very stressful period! X o
Your baby will be fine Burakoam, I cant see how it would be possiblee to pass feelings on to them while they are inside, as long as you keep your appitite she will continue to grow and be heatlthy.
Sorry Burakoam :( Stress is only a problem when it is prolonged and constant in pregnancy and while you have been under a lot of stress it has been lots of seperate events so you have also had times when you have been ok. I'm sure bubs will be just fine :)
My last pregnancy was hard and DS2 was a pretty chilled out baby. First pregnancy was fairly easy and DS1 was a more difficult baby ( although part of that was because I was a stressed out FTM). I think this pregnancy has been a bit easier physically but more stressful than the others so I'm not sure what to expect :)
Starting to get uncomfortable. 30 weeks now, getting hard to roll over in bed, stitch like pain sometimes with the stretching, itchy skin on belly and boobs. Ive put on 20kgs, ive never been this big in my life!
Hi Cinss,
You sound like me atm I feel like I'm slathering on bio oil all the time cause of the dryness and itchyness, I'm the biggest I've ever been with this bubs in terms of weight but not tummy size so struggling a bit there with my gestional diabetes. I find walking hard atm and constantly out of breathe it's annoying lols. Apart from that travelling pretty good I've still gotta make a list of girls names because I haven't even thought about it, I must still be in denial thinking I'm finally having my dream gender haha
Only getting uncomfortable now? I have been uncomfortable for a while but I knowit will only get worse.
Yesterday was bad for stretching and stitch pains but today is ok. I think I must have growth spurts so it is worse some days.
Are you working still? I hope you can get some rest over tye Christmas and new year break.
Yes Purple im still working, I dont get a break over Christmas or new year, they are actually busy times for us at work, but I only have to sit at a desk on a computer so its easy on my body. I am going to work up until 38 weeks.
Braver lady than I cinss... I stopped working around 8 weeks this pregnancy.. but I am a home care nurse and all the lifting etc was gonna be just too much on me sooner rather than later..I go back sometime when this baby is 6 months plus if she is sleeping well and depending on breastfeeding status
Yes I can understand that Burakoam, no way I would last if I had to be on my feet for a shift with lifting too. I have no idea when I will go back, I was thinking a year maybe.
I work in an office job so its not too physically demanding. The policy states we can only work up to 37 weeks but after 34 weeks we need a certificate to say we can keep working. I'm planning to finish right on 37 weeks but will have shorter weeks as I have annual leave I can use. I'm also returning after about a year, it may be a little sooner depending on childcare as they might have spaces in Jan when all the older kids leave for school (all the kids move up rooms so it frees up space in the baby room).
Do you have to work on the public holidays Cinss?
Yes only 4 hours on Christmas day, then 8 hours boxing day.
Tomorrow morning is my gender scan!!! I forget then when I remember I get so nervous / excited / terrified !!
Im sure they will say boy, but I keep picturing my husband and sons reaction if they said girl, it really would be so magical and finish off our family perfectly.
But if i am destined to be surrounded by princes then I know I will be cherished and loved forever and I know its what was meant for us.
Will update 2m when I know xxx

Aw so exciting blue everything! Can't wait to see what flavour your having and hearing all about your gender reveal.
I'm working up until I'm 36 weeks pg all being well; I'm a nurse and work long shifts but only 23 hours per week. Still no further with names though :/
Awww I'm a nurse too and my shifts are long. I work 2 twelve hr shifts on nights every week and then 1 twelve hr shift on days every week. Working full time isn't too bad but switching from days to nights is killer on my body

Good luck all blue, so excited to hear your news x
I feel so weak compared to all these other nurses working up to the end lol.. I would honestly rather be making money but I just can't meet the physical demands of the job ATM... some amazing women in this group!
Good luck allblue... excited for you.
Thank u all! I barely slept last night and when I did its all I dreamt about!
