If the parents of the deceased baby want to use the name again, then that is OK because it was the name they intended to use to begin with. I think using the name of a deceased adult is almost always appropriate.
Somebody correct me if I'm wrong, I *think* it's the Jewish faith that believes that it's bad luck to name a baby after a deceased person. So not always, though personally I agree with you because it's a way to honor someone.
I actually think it's the other way around. You're not supposed to name a baby after a living relative. I broke the rule and LO's middle name is my dad's name and originally my mom thought it was strange but they came around to it.
Also, ABC - I didn't realize you had a late term loss. I'm so sorry for your loss.
MarryMeBill - if you come back to check this, I am sorry for your loss as well, and congratulations on your new baby.
THANK YOU! It is amazing how much you take for granted having a healthy pregnancy and healthy baby. You just assume things will work out because theydo for most people. But I wouldn't call us unlucky, because Ethan's short life has forvever changed us. We feel so blessed to have had a healthy baby boy now and LOVE our little Liamasaurous. That is his nickname, because he makes noises like a dinasour
Stupid question, but I hardly ever post so I have no idea...how do you include a picture in your signatures? It looks like I need a URL, and I a pretty computer savy, but I don't know how to get that for a picture I want to post. I tried copying and pasting it in to the signature box while in edit mode but didn't work. Please advise.
