Hi all! Happy mother's day!
This is my first post on mumsnet, but I have used the thread for advice when I've needed it! This is the first time I can't find anything to help, so I thought I'd ask for advice specifically.
My OH and I have been together almost 10 years and are expecting our second little one in July! We found out two weeks ago that we are having another little boy, and I immediately wanted to name him. OH, however, is much more laid back and said he'd decide on a name later (I had already told him all the names I really liked). He also knew it would wind me up (not in a serious way, though!) to leave the decision until later.
Today, I got two beautiful mother's day cards - one from DS, with a scribble signature, an one from bump, with the name Cillian in it! Every time I had mentioned the name Cillian, OH had shot it down, saying he didn't like it, even when we were expecting our first boy. So I had completely dismissed it, and had was leaning towards something different. Turns out, OH was winding me up.
I don't know what to do now! It was such a lovely gesture, he wanted it to be a surprise and I don't want to ruin that for him. I do still like the name but had sort of chosen something different in my mind. Should I say something to OH now? Or leave it a while and see if the name grows on me again? I'm 21 weeks so we still have plenty of time.
Any advice is very much appreciated!
