Taleah Rose - I can definately recommend the Just Jeans ones if you're hating yours. They're called second skin, are super adjustable as i get bigger, and come in half sizes (like 9 and 13) which is really handy. And best of all....no butt cleavage!

Must have been so scary falling with bub in your tum - amazing how the instinct kick in and youll twist yourself into a pretzal to avoid bumping her (positive thinking
her for you

). On
prams i bought a pretty basic steelcraft cruiser travel system when they were on sale at target. I
anticipate using a sling more than a pram, and using the capsule as a carseat, but im sure itll come in handy at some point.
Welcome to
mamma bear, love the name Dante! As stated above, anonymous people on boards can be harsh when names are essentially a personal choice of the parents, who surely are giving a though to the fact that their child will (most likely) keep it for the rest of their lives. It's D names you're looking for, yes? I love Damon, was on my list but no so useful for a girl

On the spanish sounding front i love Diego, which you can't use! How about Dario, Danielo, Danilo, Davide, .....im drawing a blank now lol. Can you recycle grandparents names?
Carrie&Josh - Hope you and the family are all better soon, ur certainly having a rough time of it! And yay on the new stroller, although rubbish to hear you rnt having much success on chasing your money for the last one.
Hi
Erin! Yep thats my bump, it's actually bigger now than in the pic, but it's still just as loved

Im hugely impressed with how my body is handling pregnancy, i'm still working on my feet 5 days a week which probably helps, but put it largely down to genetics as mum stayed little as well and really just gained a bump and breasts - which she actually KEPT, fingers crossed!!
Hope everything is starting to head upwards for you

How did the ex's visit go?
mummygirl - thanks! let me know how you go with the sling making exercise. I'm not much use with a sewing machine, but if its straightforward i might con mum into giving it a go for me

Sounds like a little girl will be very welcomed by your entire extended family!
*Deanne* - Thanks! And goodluck with your scans and shopping adventures on the weekend, hope everything is perfect for you

Ditto to those above, Soraya is a beautiful name. I think i'm stuck on Lucia for this one though, so i won't steal it off you
natasha77 - hope you're feeling better!
No news from me, bub is wriggling away happily as we speak. Hi to all those i've missed

And to whoever has managed to sneak in a reply while i've been very distractedly trying to write this
