And the verdict is...

A little boy!!  I am thrilled. From the time I got pregnant, both DH and I were convinced it was a boy. For some reason I just always pictured the baby as a boy. I wouldn't have been disappointed if it was a girl, just really surprised.

The funny thing is that for years I've been having a recurring dream about a little boy with curly hair, and in my dream I love him. I think that's why I was so convinced it was a boy. After the ultrasound, DH and I went to dinner at PF Chang's and my fortune said "A dream you have will come true". How perfect is that??

  • That's awesome!  And how freaky but cool is that with your dream and the fortune?  I agree with Allison that you need to frame the fortune and put it in baby's room!

    Congrats and welcome to Team Blue!

  • His name will be Jack, after DH's uncle. Honestly, I don't like many boys' names and the ones I do like (Owen, Ethan), don't sound so hot with our last name... could you imagine if I named my kid Owen, which rhymes with my last name?

    We both really like the name Jack though. Plus, I have two older sisters and one is Jill. When my mom was pregnant with me, my sister Shelly was hoping it was a boy that my parents could name him Jack - so that she could have a Jack and Jill. So it's also a little shout-out to her.

    We're a bit stumped on middle names. DH wants Aaron after his college friend who disappeared in thin air several years ago and was never heard from again (seriously, his parents filed a missing person report and everything). While I like the sentimentand think it's a nice name, I'm not crazy about Jack Aaron with our last name. I like Alexander or Elliott as the middle name but I'm still looking at options. I'm open for suggestions!

  • HAHA Owen, I'm laughing at how that would sound.  That's too funny.  Yeah, you can't do that to your son. 

     I LOVE the name Ryan.  In fact, it's the only boys name I like, and it's non negotiable if we end up with a boy one day.  I think that would go nicely as a middle name with Jack too!

    I love the name Ryan too... but my nephew is Jason Ryan so that's out :(  Actually, we need a "J" name for the first name and my favorite name is Jonah... which is my other nephew's name. I think my sister and I have the same taste in names!

  • I love the name Jack.

    Someone I know wanted to name their future child Jack, and then she married someone with the last name Pack. Jack Pack! kinda like Owen ____...just doesn't work :)

  • Love Jack -- so spunky!  There's a Jack at Milo's day care and I just think it's such a sweet name.  

    I don't know if you (or the other pregnant ladies) are aware of it, but there's a neat sight, babynamewizard.com (sorry Chrome won't let me make a clicky - gah!) that has great names and interesting analyses on popularity, sibling names (sibsets), and such.  Might be helpful in finding a middle name idea!

  • Jack is so simple and sweet!  Love it!

    What about using husband's name for a middle name or Davori (a combination of your names).  I'm still debating deciding if I like Davori, but maybe you could come up with a different combination.
