If you plan on raising your daughter in the US - make sure you ask you American friends to try pronouncing whatever name you're considering to see if they don't butcher . Helpful for the child so that American don't butcher her name in the future 😂 just a suggestion 😊

Rene (French name) meaning re-born. ❤️ it

Indian (subcontinental) names irrespective of their religion have a meaning associated with it. Don't get into the pressure of how will it sound in US or can Americans pronounce it or not.
The only criteria should be if you like it or not.

Also, don't follow the Bollywood for Shanaya, Myra, Kiara, Tiara types which has absolutely no meaning.

Baby names sites are also to be blamed because they give completely wrong meanings of any made-up names.

All the best wishes to you!

I am sure you can find Indian names that are easy to pronounce. please do your kid a favor and pick an easy name. If not, apart from being picked on, they will shorten or change their name anyway as they grow up.

Source: Grew up in the US and shortened my name..most of my friends have also done the same.

Moving to San Diego in the spring from the central coast. Any recs on places to live (late 30’s with a kid)? Want to be close to restaurants and things to do, but a little too old and tired for gas lamp!

My plan is to transition to Part-time or PRN (once weekly) to spend time with my baby before he’s no longer a baby anymore. I’ve had excellent childcare right now from my mom from 3 months to now-9 months of age. Now that my babe is getting older and learning so much right now I want to be present more for his neurodevelopment. My trouble is… I love the income I make full-time… What age was your child when you went part-time or stay at home? And why?

Perspective requested.
10 mths ago i was talking to an acquaintance (lives in IN, same age late 20s) and they were having a baby. I expressed my congratulations and during the convo said something like, ‘…here i can’t bring myself to adopt a pup and you’re prepared for such a big responsibility’. Everything’s cool.
Present: (randomly) they remind me of this and say they understood my intent but want to teach me that I was culturally inappropriate.
Thoughts?

Thanksgiving is upon us. Send help.

My step in laws are TERRIBLE. Not directly to me but family dynamic is stressful. They parent their youngest kid with pills and ignoring him, so that he does inappropriate things around me with zero correction (walking in on me, insulting me). They are all half siblings (4 boys 30-11) so they all don’t care including my partner. FIL also verbally abuses MIL in front of us. Yet they all want to please him constantly. It’s just bad.

Food was good though.

Hello All, I have applied for an open position in Ralph Lauren however, I have not yet received any call for the interview. Can someone please help? I need some reference to join. 5.5 years experience in SCOM Administration. Looking for technical growth after maternity break.

Really struggling to decide whether we should have a third child. Any advice from those that have made this decision?

Just a thought, perhaps the admin can pin two threads:

1) When / how did you tell your work you were pregnant?
2) Would you change jobs / interview while pregnant?

Both of these questions come up almost on a daily basis, we should have a centralized thread to help each other out. :)

I posted here some months back about my ectopic pregnancies but today, I'm posting to tell you all to hang in there and God will do it for you. (Please don't insult me of you don't believe in God because I strongly do).
In a nut shell, we had baby #1 without trying. Started trying for #2 and over 2 years, I had 4 miscarriages and 2 ectopics. In July, my doc informed me that the only way forward was through IVF. I was tired and confused. I PRAYED! and continued trying. (The rest in the comments.)

Welcome to our pre-k inclusive classroom. Even with 8 students, and only face to face for 4 hours, we struggle. We struggle being heard through our masks. We struggle with social distancing. We struggle as we find ourselves constantly reminding students to keep their masks on. We struggle to keep them engaged and to teach. One thing we do not struggle with- building connections and showing out love for each child.

I received a job offer for a PM position with a base of $125K and a 10% bonus, fully remote and ok benefits. The parental leave is pretty bad, just FMLA and STD/LTD so the most I’d get is 60% of my salary for 12 weeks. I’ve cancelled most of my interviews except for one where the pay is $135K, 20% bonus, hybrid schedule, good benefits and 16 weeks fully paid parental leave. I’d like to start my family in a year or two - is it better to take the remote gig or the hybrid role with full paid leave?

We are expecting a second child in about 15 days and my first one is 2.5 yrs old. My wife took a break after our first child and we never had a nanny. Our entire family lives outside of US. With the current situation, none of our extended family members are now able to travel and help. we are worried about hiring a nanny at this point because of covid concerns. What are my childcare options so that I can be with my wife during the labor?
