Pregnancy - General / How much will being pregnant cost?
« on: August 01, 2002, 01:22:48 PM »
With my hubby in grad school finances are a little tight. We want to have baby, but just aren't sure if we will be able to afford it while he's in school. How much should I budget for the time I'm actually pregnant (for doctors, clothes, supplies, etc.)?

Baby Names / Adding jr. to a girls name?
« on: August 01, 2002, 01:17:02 PM »
I was wondering has anyone out there seen Jr. or II or III added to a girls name? I can't recall ever having known any women that are a jr. Is this sort of thing taboo for girls? I really love my name and think that if I have a girl I would want her to have the same name. Any thoughts???
