Who's actually pregnant and who's just nuts?

I am 41 and my children are 19 and 10 and I have no intention of having any more. However, I love names and baby names and will very happily weigh in. I'm very pleased to have had sons but would have had so much fun choosing girls' names!

I really should work more or watch more TV!

40, with dds aged 15 and 13. I know I will never have a third even though (finally, after all those months spent arguing over girls' names for our 2 dds!) dp and I have managed to agree on a girls' name that we both love, rather than the compromise names we ended up with for the dds. So I come on here to put my oar in just because I like (or dislike) the sound of names -

and possibly because I am still slightly broody;

and deffo in the 'nuts' camp, I guess.

Im pregnant!!

ValiumSingleton · 30/07/2010 23:03

I'm nuts too, so we're in the lead.

But, and I don't know if this confession makes me sound more nuts or less nuts, but my daughter's father totally chose her boring rather conservative name, and I'm still coming to terms with it.

Although, I do love my dc2's name.

jellybeans · 30/07/2010 23:03

I have had 7 yet still love names and talking about them!!

mathanxiety · 31/07/2010 05:12

Nuts.

This is far more fun than being pregnant and trying to pick your own names.

MummyLovesSadie · 31/07/2010 07:34

OMG I'm at you lot! Some of you are regular posters on the name threads & I just assumed you were up the duff!

I'm 41 btw & pregnant.

LaDiDaDi · 31/07/2010 07:56

I'm nuts too, was on here more when I was pregnant but can't keep away now that I'm not!

arsesandoldlace · 31/07/2010 08:13

Another Nut here.

But I'm trying to convince myself to have another one and reading all the luscious name suggestions on here really helps!

Cakey0207 · 31/07/2010 08:39

I'm in the middle... My DD is 5 weeks old & I still haven't choosen a name! Had to cancal my appointment to register her & rebook!

gorionine · 31/07/2010 08:42

I'm a nut as well

ArseHolio · 31/07/2010 08:48

[nut]

sedgiebaby · 31/07/2010 09:09

lol I had wondered this!!!

Me = Pregnant and nuts

(particularly because I haven't got a name at 34 wks for my baby girl, no further forward since my BFP)

Manda25 · 31/07/2010 10:18

I am nuts. 37 with a 19 yr old and 8 yr old ...no intentions of having any more.

deemented · 31/07/2010 10:26

I'm nuts too.

32, with a 5yr old, a 2yr old and a six month old. And would like more!!!

zazen · 31/07/2010 10:35

Nut .

I have one DD, after years of ttcing.
I'm 42 without a hare's breath of another
I have a little pot belly which I occasionally call Ignatius though....

It's like Fantasy Family here

ValiumSingleton · 31/07/2010 10:44

This is so reassuring. I thought I was one of a few nutters, but actually we're the majority I think.

As sedgie points out though, for a while we were nuts and pregnant.

MrsC2010 · 31/07/2010 11:11

Pregnant...due tomorrow!

gorionine · 31/07/2010 13:45

All the best MrsC2010!

montmartre · 31/07/2010 13:51

Another nutter here- DC still v small, but no more for us.
I just LOVE baby names though... utterly fascinate me, and people's choices.

jabberwocky · 31/07/2010 13:54

Nuts

Love thinking about/discussing names!

SqueezyB · 31/07/2010 14:23

DD2 now 6 weeks old and happily named so I guess I'm in the nuts camp now... I just had so much fun choosing names and can't resist a sneak peek on this board to see what crazy lovely new name suggestions people are coming up with! Oh, and to champion my DDs and fantasy boy names too!

meadowlarks · 31/07/2010 14:28

Nuts.

Rockbird · 31/07/2010 14:55

yama · 31/07/2010 15:34

32 weeks pregnant and keep an eye on the boy's names threads as desperate for inspiration.
