Congratulations Boboss & S.O.
As an aside, am I the only one to misread the thread summary as "Boboss is so pregnant"?

Our pediatrician's name is Conrad Valentino Wynne.

Just... pick any combination of those and you're golden.

By the time the fallout clears, there'll be a *lot* of Conrads and Nigels with the new name WARPIG.

Spaniel

14:49 / 01.07.05

Yeah, but WARPIG's a name you have to earn, otherwise people'll just think you're a self aggrandizing twat.

Combat training will start early.

Bow hunting skills. Nunchuk skills...

Remember, if you want an unstoppable murder machine you need to train it in a completely unassuming skill too, like "fry cook".

Want to congratulate my potent brother and his beautiful partner on the impending arrival. May we suggest Hecate for a girl or Stuart for a boy (geddit?). I'm going to be an aunt... Very strange...

Spaniel

14:58 / 01.07.05

Will have to come over soon and celebrate, sis. I assume you're back all summer?

So many aunts and uncles, and three grandmothers.

I actually quite like Hecate, in a kind of it's a fearsome name sort of way.

Did someone just suggest Nigel isn't a fighting name? I bet you any Nigel is way tougher than a WARPIG.

By the way I think you should call your child Nina. Especially since I will no longer be able to call any of my children after myself now that I am producing an army of ***'s. ***1 thinks this is an odd idea but really it's perfectly normal.

CongratuWOOT.

Thanking you, Nina.

Jolly good show, chaps. Well done!

MARRIG sounds like a character in an Ursula Le Guin anarchist novel.

Back of the net! and other pub-style congratulations.

I second that emotion about not reading books. You can't learn nowt from books. Plenty of back-rubs, herbal tea, and try not to make too many outrageous demands in the bedroom. She'll never fit into that Ms Marvel costume once she starts showing, and it'll just make her conscious of her changing body.

But seriously, folks, well done. Joy ahoy.

Big Congrats from me too Boboss!

Please send much love to SO- Pappuce an uncle ( a very bad uncle... shudders down my spine)

I may see Harrison & Beauchamp later I can either spread the word or keep schtum for the surprise from you- let me know what to do... excitement!

Congrats again and much love from myself and Mrs Copey...

Haha! Suckers!

Congratulations, and welcome to the NIGHTMARE!

Think you've got bags under your eyes now? Prepare for LUGGAGE!

Think you've got stains on your favourite clothes?

You know NOTHING! Welcome to the dribbles of sick on your shoulder on your way out the door. Welcome to sick in your hair. Someone ELSES!

And all the good and snuggly stuff, natch.

(HahahahahahahaMwahHAHAHAHAHA!)

Congratulations!!

Can I add a J after the second N.

May I suggest Nina Ninja Boboss? What a marvellous name that would be!

Dudes! Congrats and the suchlike!

although I initially misread the title to this as "Boboss is SO pregnant", which would have been even better.

I was going to post a picture of an iris, cos they're my favourite flowers and I think it's a pretty name, but I made a typo putting it into google-images, and what came up was too cute not to post:

So, I think maybe you could call hir "ioris"

Billuccho!

17:12 / 01.07.05

"Captain" or "Loki" if it's a boy.
"Willow" or "Honoria" if it's a girl.
"Mr. T" should be the middle name regardless of sex.

Babies! Babies everywhere! My brother and SO had a daughter in the small hours of this morning. First new addition to the clan since I was born.

Springtime and cheer...

Congratulations Boboss!

Tom Tit's Tot: A Girl!

Whee! Congrab-u-lations, Boboss.

Yes, Nobody's Girl is merely a month away from popping! Excitement!

Oh, and yes, I would reccommend the Kitzinger book. It's a very relaxed take on the entire pregnancy experience, good information and no chapter designed to freak you out. Which is not to say that you shouldn't be aware of possible complications, but the format such information is presented in by most authors is a bit terrifying.

"Captain" or "Loki" if it's a boy.

It's in the air.

Penn Gillette (of Penn & Teller) recently had a daughter.

He named her Moxie Crimefighter Gillette.

The girl's name - Iris - it's nice, but... seems a little off. Like one letter off, maybe.

George M. Boboss.

Hearty congrats to both Boboss and Bobosssso.

I love you guys. What would I do without you Barbelith?

Some great name suggestions, and a very cute animal. What more could I hope for?

Went out with a mate last night who's got a two-year-old and had a much needed chat. It really helps to talk to people who've actually been there and understand how you're feeling.

Oh, and it Looks like morning sickness is going to be more of an issue than I thought. Poor Bobosso.

Bad, to have a bad uncle.

I reckon Pap'll be quite good actually - from the kid's point of view, at least.

Goodness Gracious Meme

16:51 / 02.07.05

Wow. Huge congratulations to you both!

WOW!

Congrats Boboss,
My only tip for the future would be 'don't listen to your parents advice' some of the stuff my mother did when i was a kid ..... it's a wonder i'm still here!!

Ginger for morning sickness -- that one I know.
