I've been flip flopping names too!! We had decided long ago (when discussing TTC 2 years ago) on Cannon Leo. It's just a strong, unique name IMO, but not too crazy. We'd added Jett Leo to the rotation and I loved it, DH hated.

Last weekend I caved and told a friend our options. Both DH and I settled on Cannon as I can see it on Xmas cards, letters, a resume, etc. it seems to age more appropriately than Jett, which just kind of stays kid-ish to me. My friend raved about how much they loved Jett and it had me completely second guessing Cannon!! Ahhh!!


Team green baby due May 21! [emoji170][emoji166]

Bump pics are great ladies! Love seeing the progression on this journey we are all sharing! Home stretch is getting closer and closer, I think I will really panic when the babies start to arrive!!!! I went a week early on DS1 and was induced a week late on DS2 so this baby could arrive at any stage. DS2 was sunny side up though and labour was very stop and start as he wasn't in the best position til they released my waters so maybe this little man will co-operate and be in a good position. Here's my bump today at 22+1. I'm carrying smaller than DS2 I think but again I reckon thats due to positioning and the fact my placenta was anterior last time, its posterior this time.

@boyz I LOVE the stroller!! Definitely you will be able to pink it out when the time comes

@bluebooties I have heard great things about that earth mama spray!! I really must pick some up when I start to gather together my hospital bag. As for the sono being wrong, I have heard of it even in recent times but I think occasions are rare.
An old work colleague was told she was having a girl back in 2006 and she popped out a boy. Fast forward to her 4th baby in 2013 and she was told she was having a boy (would have been her 4th boy) and out popped a girl! Two different hospitals and two different private gender scan places got it wrong for her twice! Obviously she was delighted to finally get the girl she was told she was having on her first pregnancy but she said it really messed her up for a while. I don't know personally know anyone else it has happened to. Its crazy it happened to her twice!!

@netti oh hun I am sending massive hugs your way. That GD is a monster and it rears its ugly head here at least once a day. I try to be mindful and not let it build up, its easier to let it out than to bottle it up. Healthier too! DH is having second thoughts about a 4th child so I feel that might be contributing to my GD at the minute. Our two boys are going through difficult stages at the moment and he's just feeling overwhelmed with the idea of another one joining us shortly. He says he hopes I will feel complete when DS3 gets here. I would love to be able to say that I will feel done and happy but right now I just don't see it happening. Its hard. But we are here, and if you ever want to just talk PM me. I'm not online as much as before but I do try to lurk when I can. Maybe us opposites might be better off setting up another thread!

DH and I are at odds over what to call this little one!!! He won't even discuss it anymore! I named our older boys. DS1 was named at birth (we thought he was a she so DH only had his girl name and no boy names prepared but I had both lol) DS2 was 24 hours old when he was named as we were disagreeing and in the end my "pushing vote" won so I named him. DH said that we have agreed on a name since 16 weeks and he is attached to it now. I still like it however the issue is two girl friends of mine have recently called their newborn sons by this name too and another friend due a boy in June has said its in her top 3!! It seems to be gaining popularity a lot more of late and its off putting. I have another name I love but couldn't use before as my cousin has a 5 year old with the same name but as we don't really socialise with him I don't see the issue any more. its so hard to find a nice boys name that we both agree on!!!!!! And harder still when DH is refusing to budge!! He's driving me BATTY lately! ANyone else having this issue with their OHs??

Oh interesting -- does placenta positioning affect how you look? I have an anterior one.

Lol hopper. With this being ds5 im just running out of names now 😂 we are going with Lachlon though we also liked Wynston. (My other boys are Brandon, Cameron, Jackson and Braxton so needed the 'on' and 7 letters &#128516

I think i have been letting the GD build up abit and not letting it out bit by bit. It doesn't help i still have the girls stuff set aside to sort through. Im waiting to see what my best friend is having and i may just be able to get rid of it in one go 😊

And omg ive really only had gender 'confirmed'at the 17 week gender ultrasound yet im sure i could still see the goods at the 20 week ultrasound and the sonograpger agreed. At the 17 week gender reveal he was adamant it was a boy and the only way it would be a girl is in Thailand (his joke not mine 😮 ) The last one we didn't even really bother checking and legs were closed. I can say if it happened to me id be a mess. Ive gotten so used to my 5th boy and his name and clothes shopping for blue It would be like that joy and chance would be taken from you.

Oh hun I love your boys names!!! Lachlon is gorgeous and fits right in! I still have the single pink sleep suit I bought when I was pregnant on DS1, I bought a blue one and a matching pink one and just can't seem to let it go. It's actually still underneath my bed from TTC. I think I will have a hard time getting rid of it.
I'd be the same at this stage. I had my scan at 15 weeks but the potty shot is pure boy so I'm not doubting it or anything but if I was to get a later scan and be told the earlier one was wrong I don't know how I'd feel. I think I'd feel my boy was taken from me or something. I can only imagine what its like to be told one gender and actually deliver the opposite!

Me! My DH and I couldn't agree on a name to save my life for DS1! I had a dream about DS1 and he was called Elliot. My DH liked it! He named DS2 as we had to make sure DS1 could say it. He is named Isaac. DS3, we had a name picked out, but it didn't seem to fit him once we met him. Of course we couldn't agree on another name, haha! My nurse told us the story of her favorite boy name (she's is a mom of three boys too), and wrote on the whiteboard all of the possibilities for us. We liked her name, Aaron with the middle name we liked, Michael [emoji4].

My DH always flip flops when TTCing! I never believe what he says as he can get overwhelmed at the drop of a hat but loved kids and being a dad. He's a school principal so you'd think he could multitask at home but nope, haha! I just rely on his past behavior to predict his actions- he loves to BD frequently and loves kids. As long as O don't talk about it and listen when he brings it up, when I say how much it means to me, he follows through. He will freak out the whole way, but he will commit in the end!

Hopefully yours will too, Hopper!

Your boys names all sound so well together XX!! We were similar with DS2, we had a name picked from 20 weeks when we had the gender scan but when we met him it just wasn't right. We had NO other names lol. We both picked one each that we liked and I tried them out overnight but (obviously!) my one won in the end lol. I think we are best off not referring to bump as any name for now, I don't want to confuse the boys. And we can decide what he looks like when hes here (which I canNOT wait for by the way, I am SO unbelieveably broody at the moment. I just can't wait to have a newborn in the house again!!!!!)

I feel my DH says things on the spur of the moment to keep the peace and then backs down when he realises it might be a real possibility. He said we could try for a 4th child when we had the gender scan, I feel now that he only said it cause he saw I was so upset and trying to keep it in. Now that the idea of a 3rd boy has settled in with me he probably thinks that I will be ok if we stop at 3. He's probably forgetting I have always always always said I'd like 4 kids so its not like I'm throwing him a curve ball at this stage in our marriage!! When I was on LE last year I started on May 1 with the intention of starting ttc after my Aug AF. When it came time to start ttc he was so against it and I really feel that because he was only half into it it took us longer to conceive and therefore I got less girl friendly the longer I was on LE. I just want him to be open to it, I'm not saying I definitely want to have another one. We need to make sure a 3rd doesn't kill us first lol. Our boys are only 4 and 2 so hard work and then you add a newborn to the mix, its going to be a tough few months but I'm ready for it. I just love being a mom SO much - plus honestly I think I'm addicted to having babies!!! :P

Team green baby due May 21! [emoji170][emoji166]

Oh thats a tough one Taytum!! Both names are lovely!! It's always good to have two choices though, just in case baby doesn't look like your first preference when he/she is born!!

Oh interesting -- does placenta positioning affect how you look? I have an anterior one.

Sent from my SM-G930V using Tapatalk

I'm not sure hun. They say that babies "generally" face the placenta so if its posterior you might have a sunny side up baby (OUCH!) So I'm assuming bump shape is more to do with the position of baby. I know this little man is 100% facing my back most of the time, I'm getting all the same movements I got on DS1 and he seems to be in the same comfy position at each scan. DS2 was facing my front, placenta was anterior and the kicks were totally different. Bump shape seemed different too, especially compared to this time. My first pregnancy doesn't really compare as it was my first and none of the muscles were stretched out but this time for sure I'm carrying wider and higher. Its great actually cause on my first two boys I felt they were so low they might fall out at any moment lol though the only negative to carrying higher is feeling full a lot faster so I feel I'm constantly snacking, and the only negative to carrying wider is that none of my old maternity clothes fit me properly! Its a nuisance more than anything.

Lovely name choices ladies !!
I have picked mine as well. I always select 2 and make the final choice after baby is born coz i guess i need to look at the baby to say what suits her best if u get what i mean.
I like short names abd i am all about meanings of names so my first choice is Ryna: queen
Second is Maysa: graceful

I have set up everything for the baby right down to the smallest detail this past weekend so i better not have any birth surprises or it will cost me a ton 😄

I love that mama botton spray too hopper !! Its a life saver.
I am going to give depends a try this time based on recommendations. I really dont fancy those thick uncomgortable pads

I've heard a lot of girls use depends post partum. Which ones do you get for that?

Blue, I love the name Maysa! Just adorable .

Hopper, I'm sure your DH is just feeling apprehensive right now. It's hard to even imagine having 4 kids when you don't even have 3 yet. Im always going back and forth in my head. Especially since my DS 2 has been such a turd lately!

I have been sick with respiratory crud and I feel so awful . On a happier note, my super active guy is SO strong! My boys and DH love watching my belly move all over the place. Hes already kicking me in the ribs! I love his kicks and rolls so much My crazy pregnancy dreams are starting. I had a dream last night that I had twin boys! I think I had it because my almost 7 year old told me a few days ago he had a dream I had twins. It was so real! I still remember all of my crazy dreams with my other 2 boys. So weird!

Hope everyone is well!
