Hello Ladies,
I am a FTM and have been lurking on here throughout my pregnancy. My daughter Leonora Noelle was born on August 9th and she is the best thing that ever happened to me!
I live in Germany - so due to the time difference you guys have been my source of entertainment during night time feedings :-)
I would love to join and become an active part of your group.
Feel free to ask me anything so we can get to know each other!

Greetings from Berlin,
Mariana

Edit: corrected date of birth... Oh my, i need more sleep :-p

  • Haha! I was wondering what you were doing up so late. Welcome! I love your DDs name!

  • My real name is Lenora, similar to your LOs. I have been "Nora" though for most my life. Mine is a family name, did yours come from family or did you just like it?


    Welcome!

  • Willkommen auf dem board! (I think I said that right)
    I lived in Germany for 2 years when DH was in the military. We were in Wurzberg. Nothing like spending your early 20's in Europe! I miss it :)
  • Hi. I've been a lurker too and have recently been jumping in. Your introduction was much better than mine. I just jumped in and don't think it was received very well. My DD was born on August 8th. Her name is Madeline Marie. How is Leonora sleeping at night? That's when I usually lurk too. Last night Madeline had a 7 hour stretch so I'm really happy about that. Lets hope it sticks. Beautiful name by the way. Prost!
  • Thank you ladies!

    @theusualmischief: incredible german skills- I am impressed!

    @FeetFirst
    I found out I was expecting this little surprise in August and immediately wanted a name that included "Leo" due to the zodiac sign. We had Leonel picked out for boy and Leonelle for girl... But a couple of weeks before the due date we decided on Leonora. Just found it in a book.

    @LokiLahve
    My sister actually lived there... Such a small world! And I totally agree on living in interesting new places in your 20s. Since I am from europe I lived in Sydney, Australia and Boston, MA for a while

    @Vaneza1v
    Its not a competition :-p
    Madeline sounds like a dream baby! we are nowhere near an 7 hour stretch in this house... She might do three hours... Or four if I give her a bottle of formula- but thats it.
  • Wilkommen! I lurked for a long time and recently joined as well. I chaperoned a school trip to Germany last summer (we were in Bavaria mostly), and I loved it there. It's such a beautiful country.

  • I can say "over the bridge" in German, it's safe to assume that if I ever got lost there I'm screwed.

    Welcome!
