So is everyone picking names now or waiting til your babies are born??

How about finding out gender, findout or waiting til birth?

I am going to wait til birth on names since we found out its 2 boys.

Picking now. I have 2 names already (Kianna or Kyler) but no middle names yet.

And yes we are finding out before the birth.

We wait until birth to finalize names but we go into the delivery room with a short list. Last time our names were Kate (not sure if it was going to be Katherine or Kathleen), Sarah, or Elisabeth. Boy names were Peter, Benjamin, or Christopher. I think DH doesn't like to be pinned down to a name beforehand. This time we will name a boy Peter (only name we LOVE right now) and our girl names are Sarah, Caroline, Julia, or Sophia.

We aren't finding out the sex this time and we didn't last time either. I feel like it's one of life's true surprises for me, at least.

that's neat I hear some people like to see the baby before really choosing a name.

Actually we didn't "see" the baby before we decided. I think DH just wanted to wait until we were at the hospital. I had a 30+ hour labor so it was fun to discuss names when it felt like it was dragging on forever. We probably won't even discuss middle names until then either (although I already have an idea of what I want!).

How about finding out gender, findout or waiting til birth? DH wants to know this time around, so we will hopefully be finding out in not too long

We will be finding out the gender as long as baby cooperates.

I think we have our names picked pretty much now. For a girl we know it will either be Teagan Nicole or Teagan Schaare (middle name in honor of my grandparents but a 2nd cousin did this as well so I'm not sure).

For a boy, dh gets to pick since I named Kylie and picked out the possible girl's name this time as well. I haven't fallen in love with his choice yet but it is starting to grow on me so I know I will grow to love it. It will likely be Braxton Noah (I did help with the middle name.) It will give a whole new meaning to the term "Braxton Hicks", lol!

Oh, and Schaare is pronounced like the Char part of Charlotte.
