So, you never know, maybe you'll change your mind :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/had-names-i-loved-and-now-totally-turned-off#post-745711 Fri, 26 Apr 2013 07:56:35 +0000 LuLu Mom 745711@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Maybe give it some time and see what happens. A lot can change in months to come, it might freak you out now, but when you get pregnant again your feelings might change. Sorry you are going through this! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/had-names-i-loved-and-now-totally-turned-off#post-745702 Fri, 26 Apr 2013 07:51:13 +0000 spaniellove 745702@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It took soooooo long for us to decide on names we really liked...probably since we met, so 9 years now. We finally had a boy name and a girl name we loved, and it just happened that they both started with the same initial as my deceased grandfather's name, which is a naming tradition in DH's culture. </p> <p>But I've had a horrible dream about my grandfather since finding out about our recent m/c and I don't think I can ever use those names now, especially since I was wearing a necklace from my grandfather the whole time I was pregnant. It sucks because I really really liked those names and I'm picky! We are for sure not using initials of relatives in the future, and I don't know what names could replace the ones I liked! </p>
