My thoughts exactly about the kids. When I was in NC with WH, he only talked about his job search, paragraph after paragraph, signing off "I hope you and the baby are OK". Note: no question mark. He wasn't asking, just stating. So I felt no need to reply. (gawd, I can't help but feel sometimes that our WHs are very alike...) Okay, so why the feeling of urgency? Are you getting anxious because you see the birth as some sort of 'deadline'? Perhaps if your main concern is being open about what you intend to call her, you could just talk about that. Are you going to be open to any suggestions he may have, though? Any chance he will want her to carry his name?
