How long after you found out you were pregnant did you start looking for baby names?
we pretty much had baby girl names straight away but when i got preg we found out we were having a boy we couldnt decide on a boy name my sister saw a name Brayden in a mag we were thinking that would be ok when my son was born we still werent sure but my midwife rushed us so he ended getting called brayden we named him 3weeks after he was born and still ages after that i still wasnt keen for that name hes 18mnths now lol
Reply:I bought books and thought about baby names long before I was pregnant but I was on IVF and this was my way of getting through the disappointment. Mind you I had a name picked and called the baby by the name 'Noah' the whole way through the pregnancy but when he was born he just wasn't a Noah and suddenly became Jett. Out of fear I didn't buy anything which I considered to be final like baby seats and cots etc until I was 12 weeks.
Reply:With our first we picked a boy's name and a girl's name around 3 months pregnant. I had a girl that time.





With our second we already had a boys name for the first pregnancy. Came up with another girls name at 5 months when we were told girl. Then found out 1 month 4 days before delivery, that she was a HE! lol. So we went with the original boy's name we had picked.





This time we looked over everything we could find online for names, and picked at 5 months. We're still debating middle name though. We have first and middle.....just aren't 100% on the middle yet.
Reply:That weekend lol! I had taken a class and a featured lecture was about 'what's in a name?' and showed me all the importance of a good name for call backs on a resume and the way people approach you when introduced. I want to give my baby the gift of a solid name. :)
Reply:My husband and I have always talked about what names we like, cause we like different names. So we really started to talk about them even before we were pregnant. Once I became pregnant I do a lot of research on line I have watched videos and read some books.
Reply:as soon as i was past the safe zone and more when i found out what it was because i didn't want to get exited right away just in case then that way if some thing happened i could still use that name
Reply:2 yrs before we got pregnant!! Hahaha!





We have made a serious effort at names already, and have a short short list and i am 16 weeks pregnant.





Hard when we don't know what we're having! Lol.
Reply:Any moment is good to start looking at them, you should pick a name that realy likes you and maybe, that sounds good with your last name.





You may also wanna try names from different countries


Take care
