@WillowT names have proven to be hard. I would spend hours when I was little writing down all the combinations of names I would use for future children and now I actually have a little one on the way it's hard to choose just one first name. I have also found boys names harder to choose.
Luckily, my husband has a similar taste in names so that's helped, although he doesn't like my favourite boy's name. We have shortlisted two names for both a girl and a boy and three of them happen to be in the top 20. The fourth is just in the top 100 for a girl.
I've been waiting for the statistics to be released so I've just had a good look at the ONS website. I find the map of the country really helpful to get a feel for how popular the names are in our area and the surrounding areas. We both have classic names that were popular choices when we were growing up so I suppose choosing a popular name doesn't bother us too much, though I find it all interesting to research.
I'm beginning to do some online clothes shopping too. I mostly wear dresses and skirts (though I'm looking forward to fitting into my jeans again - soon I hope!) but not many of my current dresses are breastfeeding friendly. I've found a few that have lower necklines or buttons on. The search continues!
@flameprincess the nightie looks lovely. I'm keeping a tab open as my size is out of stock at the moment.
@LatteLover12 how exciting! I'm sure with the cot in place it will look even better tonight! We're having some decorating done in our hallway today and I'm so pleased with the final look. It seems many of us are going to have lovely new rooms to welcome the babies home to
