We need both because we aren’t (hopefully) finding out sex until birth.
99% sure our boy name will remain Theodore/Teddy. As it has been for 8 years. I have always liked Nathaniel/Nate but H isn’t super keen on it.
Girl names are harder since we used our two. I’m really liking my middle name- Lucille/Lucy. It’s growing on H. And I can’t think of any others I like as much.
I think both names go well with our two kids’ names.

Okay but when get your anatomy scan tell the nurse to write the sex on a paper and send it to me so I can know.

Lmao you will find out before my sister just so I can tell her someone knows and she doesn’t. Neener neener! I am doing a NIpT so small chance I accidentally find out. Honestly I don’t want that burden because H does NOT want to know, and I am a terrible secret keeper.

Little Foot will be legally named Em.ily An.ne. All three kids have family names for middle names. We had a few options and let the twins pick their favorite. They love telling everyone they named baby sister.
I have 11 days until my c-section and a few days ago she was estimated to be 8 pounds 11 oz at 37 weeks. I know the ultrasounds are quite inaccurate which is what I’m hoping for. I’m 5’ and literally all baby. I keep telling her she can come at any time but she gives zero shits and kicks the hell out of me instead.

She is Natalie Ann. H and I agreed on Natalie, Ann was MIL’s middle name. I really tried for Anna as a first name, but H was having no part of it saying that wasn’t his mom’s middle name *eye roll* Natalie was my suggestion, so I guess it worked out.
I liked Anna, Holly, Brooke, Natalie, Lillian, Whitney, & Wren. H was fine with all of those except Anna. We’ve known she was a girl since about 12weeks, so we didn’t really toss around any boy names.

I decided against a tribute name for my dad. I want to stop the tradition of naming after the dead in my family This is why I am leaning towards NOT Louella because it is my grandmothers name. She is not dead, but I don't know that I feel tribute name is necessary either way. She practically raised me, but for some reason now it isn't feeling "right".

Oh forgot to mention Leví will be the middle name for the boy. I just need to look at him and see if he’s a Samuel or an Abram. LOVE both with this middle name.

High risk doctor is optimistic that I can go home after a week of no bleeding AND if the bleeding appears less on US than it did day 1. So far, so good on the bleeding front. FX! how are you?!

Very random question.
I cloth diapered with C. I plan to Cloth diaper with the twins too. But I’ll probably need premie or newborn disposable while they fit into my one size stuff - which is more or less 8lbs to start.
What stuff do you guys like for that age range? It’s really up in the air and depends on how much they weight.

The kicks and movements are everything these days. I can’t believe I’m here this far. I just want to keep holding on.

miawallace I’m team pampers baby dry. Not worth the extra $ IMO for the pampers swaddlers, which is what my hospital used. My SIL is team Kirkland and loves them. donnameagle I love to hear that! I’m starting to feel a lot more this week. I’m most excited for DD to be able to feel on the outside soon. She’s been asking so many questions about babies and it’s really sweet.

I had always wanted Louella but I have been leaning towards others recently! Hoping to nail it down soon-ish. *coughs* 😂

But wasn’t sure I want to buy a whole set of covers just for newborns. I’ll keep searching. I bet there’s a ton of new cloth diaper stuff I haven’t seen from like 6 years ago. That was my favorite type of method, by the way. Cotton Prefold, snappies, and thirties covers.

We had incidents though and so for me that really mattered.

I bet there’s a ton of new cloth diaper stuff I haven’t seen from like 6 years ago. That was my favorite type of method, by the way. Cotton Prefold, snappies, and thirties covers. I didnt really like cloth diapers at first with the umbilical cord and the circ, but I will say some of the the newborn cloth diapers I bought last for quite a while and made it worth it to me. I used newborn Thirsties covers, imagine covers, and Nickis diapers covers from like 7lbs until at least 15 lbs, which was about 5-6ish months. I had a few AIO newborn diapers I loved as well but they’re definitely not as cost effective. Nickis diapers has some bamboo prefolds that are awesome. So if you do feel like trying newborn cloth I do think it can be done cheaper than disposable, especially when you add in being able to sell them after. The things I’ve sold I’ve gotten at least half what I spent. I wish I would’ve known you and nonniedee were going to be with child/ren and I would’ve saved more to send to y’all 😭 The disposable I like are pampers swaddlers and Huggies has a more affordable one that I like. They have Mickey Mouse in them or someshit

They have Mickey Mouse in them or someshit I was pretty minimalistic with my cloth diapering. I loved the flip covers and used a combo of their inserts and trifolded prefolds or flats. Those were my everyday method at home. Whenever we went out I used bumgenous pockets. I have a few of those. Not like a days worth though. Loved them so much. I need to go to storage and figure out exactly how much I have of everything. I might need to buy more to last for a few days. I wanted to start right away but wasn’t sure how tiny the babies are going to be so I don’t know if I should use disposable while they grew into their regular one-size ones. My husband loved the cloth diapers. He’s so excited to use them again.

miawallace I never CD so take with a grain of salt. But I would just use disposables until they can wear the ones you have. We used pampers swaddlers through size 1 I think, and then switched to Target brand because they were almost the same.
