My spouse likes all of the girl names that I like and has basically ceded that decision to me if we end up with a girl. I am 100% sure on what I want for the first name in this case (which is weird, because I like SO MANY girl names and...

Aw. I'm sorry to hear it, too, though you pose a good inspiration for me-- I have to keep exercising while I still can! Another vote over here for trying swimming if you haven't. Just getting into a pool might make you feel more...

I'm with e(Lisa)beth on this as well, which is why I need to get my 20wk u/s before my sister, who is due ten days after me. In general, I don't feel like I'd want to name my kid the same thing as another kid in its immediate age...

There really aren't a lot of classes in my area. I'm going to take the generic childbirth preparation class at the center I'm hoping to deliver at. About a decade ago, I was certified in infant CPR/first aid... I think I've forgotten...

Ah, the too small house problem... as the third out of five (!) kids, I'm very familiar with this one. : I've shared a room with all of my siblings except the youngest (I had moved out of the house by the time he was old enough to need...
