I was 24 when i had my d/s I am 28 now.. It was a Big deal for me to have this baby now but I kind of wish I could of not had such a big age gap but I cant really help that
was gone by 9 weeks.. still have my moments but 100 percent now
Or Aliana Mary-Claire! But I'm thinking that's possibly too many middle names lol?! But then again, Im joanna mary elizabeth...
Yes that's why we like it so much- I love names where you can clearly have a good nickname as well- Matthew is obviously matty, Jeremy is Jezza (or "no more tantrums or you'll get a time out!" - but we figured that was a long name to spell for him hehehe) and Ben's nickname is Bink (just because we thought it was funny and cute :P)
I can't remember the pronunciations with the Marie and Marees- is Marie pronounced "Mahr-ee"? and Maree is obviously "maa-ree".. Hope that makes sense!
Yeah, I wanted Mary because she was one of my closest friends- well adult friends! She was my mother's close friend (How those two were friends I'll never know, because my mother isn't one for being family oriented). Whereas Mary had 5 girls and 1 boy (I am good friends with her daughter who's the same age as me), she always understood me, when everyone else (including my family, sadly didn't)- and with having so many children, the house was always a buzz, and I just always felt so cared for and happy in that house- I spent more time there than my own house. Anyway when I was 13, she passed away from bone cancer, when she was 47. So I'd love to be able to preserve her memory by passing her name down. And Claire because that was the name of my grandmother who passed away in 2006 of cancer as well- and again, the most beautiful person I've ever known, the only person in the family who ever defended me, and understood me etc, just a very calm, beautiful woman- and how's this for irony? Nan's birthday was the 3rd of november. I found out last year on the 3rd of november that my baby boy had triploidy, and we lost him on the 9th of november. this time, my c section will be on the 6th of november- i wanted to make it earlier, closer to nan's birthday , but I don't want the bub coming too early... So many ironies involved here! So again, I'd love to be able to throw a "claire" in there too !
Oh wow, what a touching story, and I am sorry for your losses!
Thank you for sharing that. Mary is VERY important! Hey both go with Claire very nicely!
Just Marie Claire magazine here in the US came to mind and that's why I said Marie hehe ;) Both names are absolutely lovely, and I'm SO glad you can finally use them! :)
My youngests middle name is Mary :)
I keep forgetting Mary is my middle name too! LOL But it's combined with elizabeth... I think I really like Aliana Mary Claire :) Can't wait to keep going on this nursery, I'm sitting in the middle of it! We had all the carpets cleaned today so I'm going to put DH (dickhead maybe?!!!!! LOL) to work and get the cot set up.... I'll do everything else lol
Yes set that dickhead to work, HAHAHA.
Hehehehehehehehehe
Yeah very nice for me! I hope they play together tho!!
Gosh sorry Joanna, we have hijacked your thread LOL!
Of course!!!!! You sound like a beautiful mother! You possibly might need a checkup with your optometrist, seeing as though you're having trouble seeing the big BOY BIT in your ultrasound pic, but other than that, you sound like a wonderful mum!! :P
And chat away! No hi-jacking going on here, just a crazy woman who still can't believe I could be having a girl LOL
Oh and you are not "could be having a girl" you ARE HAVING A GIRL!!!!!!!!!!!
YAYYYYYYYYYYYYYY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!
So did you say you posted pics, Butterfly? Or did I read the pm wrong LOL..
My first born, her biological sperm giver lol had no interest in being a Dad.. he was only 15 too and yeah... BUT I met my now DH when she was a baby :D
If coldwater says she's more than 80% sure of a gender, you can take that to the bank, seriously. That's why I REALLY wish I knew what she would have thought of my gender, what she would have said! (before we got the confirmation)
