Now Grommie no splitting of hairs for the youngsters. Daniel by the end of the 7th month its a bit hard to do the romantic bit - bub keeps kicking the sh..out of Mum - if you get a good dinner a nice smooge and a night's sleep, that's big enough.

Ear plugs for the baby's arrival, and a baby sitter for a romantic over nighter before the Big Day

more unique? It is either unique or it isn't .. unique means one of a kind.

Something nice at home. Wouldn't recommend getting any takeaway or restaurant foods as I've read way too many articles cases of lysteria so it's best to prepare something fresh where you know the cooking conditions. I agree changing to the K though the original English name is Candance because I'd be worried that she'd be under pressure (when older/at school) to be good at dancing so the K may distract enough so the cheeky kids at school won't pay as much attention maybe. In regards to your other post about similar sounding names (couldn't post at the time but skim read quickly) there's a few contenders: Constance or Konstance, Cadence or Kaydence, Candace, Chance, Florence, Lourence and Marie-Laurence, Morgance and Nance.Edited 05-Mar-22 19:54pm

Are you sure it is a good idea to spell it that way. Children do not like unusual names. My daughter-in-law's name is Zangie - a made up name. She hates it. When she was a child she would tell her mom, I don't want to be called Zangie, I want to be called Sarah. Quote from Peaches Geldoff, "Parents should not give their children unusual names". My mum's name was Verlie. Till the day she died she regretted not changing it. It is a different generation now so maybe it is more acceptable. My suggestion for a celebration is brunch at a local cafe in particular an Acai berry bowl.
