    Tami,

    What is your son's name? What would you have named him if he were a girl?


    Memaw
    Hey, my son is named Joseph Timothy (J.T.)

    For girl's names, I've always liked Riley and Eliza (from My Fair Lady! LOL!) Kind of corny but I am corny!!
    I was going to say Riley!!! How weird is that????? I also like Railey.

    Just a warning.. my Sister-In-Law took my 3 boys names I had picked out and named all her boys in that order..( I had to wait 5 yrs to have kids/ illness).. Then I had a girls name picked out for my second pregancy prior to finding out it was a boy... And my Twin stole that one for her 3rd baby girl she had..
    My other girlfriend named her daughter McKaila because McKenzie was her first choice and taken by 2 of her best girlfriends who were pregnant and had their girls 2 wks prior to hers. Nice friends and family... NOT!

    that is why David is a perfect choice,,,,you cant have enough David's running around (imho) NOT

    :noway: :noway: How many Dave's DO you have running around? :laugh:

    I carried different with both of my boys. The first one Logan hardly moved.. Garrett my second wouldn't sit still... Heartburn with Logan. Different cravings with both of them. No morning sickness. Have a healthy, happy wonderful pregnancy.. And as long as the baby is healthy... any sex will do. Girls are easy when they are younger, but harder as teens.. And boys are the opposite??? That's what people keep telling me.. I'm hoping! for my sake.. My boys are 15.5 months apart. They keep me busy! :flowerforyou:

    I dunno, I can't tell. It looks like you're leaning back.

    That's one enviable bump. Congrats!:flowerforyou:

    This very true!! My daughter was an absolute angel until she hit 13 then she turned into this person that I didn't even know! She is 22 and is still the difficult one. My son was a typical boy, fights, gross stuff but he turned out to be the sensible one, he is now 25. He started straightening up around 16. But I wouldn't trade either one of them for the world!

    I know what you mean about the girl turning 13. I went through the same thing with my daughter. Holy cow, why didn't someone warn me!?! I don't know how either one of us survived her puberty. :laugh: My son was totally different. He was the easy one. I'd do it all over again in a heartbeat. :smile:

    Weird...... :tongue:

    Not just weird. Stupid. Setting the kids up for a childhood of ridicule and assumptions that her parents are illiterate. (Not that Tam would do such a thing.) I know that "vita" means "life" in Italian, but Italians don't subject their children to such whims. And in the US, it sounds like Velveeta, truncated.

    Has anyone here read "Freakonomics"? There's a chapter on the economic effect of giving your child a weird name or uncommon spelling of a less uncommon name. It's not a positive effect.

    Girl
    8 lbs 1 oz
    21 inches long
    and I shall call her

    Jeannine, my queen, of lilac time.

    :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

    When I had my 1st baby I was 21. The girl in the bed next to me told me she was naming her little girl
    Latoya Maloya Paloya. My mom said she was pulling my leg.............then the records lady came around with the birth certificates (my mom was there too) and we heard the lady say "Chil, you just cant do that to that poor lil thing!" And " It wont fit on the birth certificate"
