What? Who's changing names? What have I missed?
Perhaps I could try on something a little new myself if everyone else is doing it ...? 
Except then I'd have to start again with my stars, and that would be tragic. ------------- Cuinn Lachlan 23.1.09 - 22:00 Antonia Helene 4.8.11 - 09:41 |

Yeah i noticed that everyone is popping up with new names and i have to check who the bubs is to figure out who it was!
But in saying that i may be tempting to change when Astin arrives as i will be Bay and Astins mum then

I wanted to change mine to just Becks but it wouldn't let me  . But I have to say I did find it a bit hard at first but slowly getting used to the new names.------------- I was a puree feeder, forward facing, cot sleeping, pram pushing kind of Mum... and my kids survived! |

I've been finding it totally confusing as well! A mention of the former name in the signature at least temporarily is a big help figuring out who is who. 
I'm not changing mine....always have and suspect always will be Paws....can't think of anything else! (how uncreative of me!) ------------- http://lilypie.com">

Agree with you all - i get confused too.
I went and changed mine, for about 2 seconds, it just felt wrong changing it from mum2paris so i changed it back.. and as mike said.. if i changed it i'd have to put mum2lots! So mum2paris i am staying.. obviously the other 2 kids are just hangers on ------------- Janine and her 2 cool chicks, Paris & Ayja

I'm mostly keeping up... because of people's tickers LOL! But I sure am hoping that the madness will settle down once the initial rush finishes.
As for me? I can't think of anything better! ------------- |
