Need serious help...

Ok, I need some serious help here. I have only 4 weeks left (maybe less, I hope). Dh says he is sick of talking about names and that it doesn't matter b/c I will end up naming the baby anyway. Should I take off running with this and name the baby exactly what I'd like (not sure if I even know what that may be yet) or still try to get his input. We are both changing our minds like the wind blows and it is starting to drive me nuts! Sorry for such a long message but I need help!

My advice is to chill. Take some time away from the name game and let your dh off the hook too. Be still. And quiet. Prepare yourself for the impending birth of your child. This is a most sacred and precious time.

Decide in your own mind your top choice for a name and promise yourself that you won't speak of it until the baby is born. Then and only then broach the subject with your husband. It will be clearer then.

I would pick out the name you want and then just make sure he doesn't hate it. Then just stick with it. I wouldn't keep giving him names to think about. The fewer the better. You just don't want to pick a name that reminds him of a kid that used to tease, bully, hit him etc.

We couldn't decide what to name our 3rd dd.
