We have almost made a decision on what to name our son. This is such a big decision!

Our current first choice is Tyler James. My only concern is that Tyler is the 16th most popular name. I wonder if there will be 3 Tyler's in school with him and that will be an issue.

Our second choices are Charlie (name him Charles, call him Charlie) and Jackson, but we haven't picked out middle names for those. I have always loved these names but my husband suggested Tyler and it just felt right.

Any advice? My husband mentioned asking his mother before we chose a name. I told him I thought it was our decision and she will learn to like it, no matter what.

We googled Tyler James and no mass murders came up and his initials woud be TJM so that doesn't spell anything bad. Anything else that we need to think about?

Tyler James is such a nice name.....For our children, we used my fathers middle name for our son and my husbands mothers middle name for our daughter. Whatever you choose, I am sure that it will be just perfect for your son! :)

I love the name Tyler!!

I wanted it for my youngest - but hubby wasn't keen :angry:

We couldn't agree on a name until my Mum suggested Martin (with Tyler as a middle name ;) )

..But, I like Charlie as well!! :)

Tyler is a great name. Plus, if he really hates his name when he gets older, he will be able to go by TJ, that's cute too. So it's kind of win win. I love it.

I like Tyler also - I would definitely be calling him Ty for short though.....

I still am disappointed that I didn't get to name on of the twins Brady. I soooooo wanted my Brady. We knew we were naming one of them Daniel - after all, being Irish, we had to have our Danny Boy! But I wanted Brady for twin #2 and Terry wanted Connor, so what do we do? We let our oldest daughter decide! She picked Connor :angry:<_<<_<

Oh well.......

I like the names you have picked out. Definitely go with your "gut".

(the problem with asking someone like your m-i-l is that if you don't pick the name she likes.....;))

I like all of the names you are considering.

With our second, my husband and I couldn't choose between two names--we kept going between the two. Right after he was born, we looked at him, and both said--Matthew! :D

Whatever you decide, it will be the right choice :)

I like Tyler, but I then again I have one of my own. We call him Ty which is less common than Tyler. Love Charlie as well, and I sort of think Jacksons are gaining popularity. If he has to be one of 3 in class I'd rather him be a Tyler than a Jackson. Personally, we only know one other Tyler but he spells it Tylor.

My Ty is pictured on the left in my avatar.

I really think we are going to go with Tyler, and probably call him Ty at least some of the time. My husband is ok with me calling my belly Tyler now, so that is a good step in the right direction. Glad to see other people like the choice.

When my husband and I were choosing our son's name, we opened the back door and hollered each of the options out across the neighborhood. The one that sounded best is the one we chose.

The practical approach--I like that! :lol:

Tyler is a good name; not too trendy, can be pronounced without getting lessons on how to say it. Only drawback these days is names like Tyler could be a girl or a boy. I don't know if that matters to you I used to know a man named Robin and a girl named Robin. I don't know how I feel about that.

Also note to all MIL's who want to control the name: have your own baby and then you can name it youself. MYOB.

I think Tyler James is a fine name. So are Charles and Jackson. You really can't go wrong if you like the name, and it suits your baby. In terms of popularity...so what? I was one of three Michelles in my grade throughout elementary school. Not a problem. My youngest, Olivia, will be going to school with many Olivias (it was #8 the year she was born.)

Personally, I don't like sharing names with others, especially family, until the baby is born and named. There are too many opinions to the contrary. Picking a name is just too special to involve anyone but you and your immediate family (spouse & perhaps children.)

If we were going to have kids, we'd name our boys Jefferson Davis and Robert E. Lee.

Can you tell what region of the country we live in? :P :P :P

I like the names you have chosen as well.

As far as others opinions......if you didn't have a name that you liked you could consider asking for ideas.....but definately not necessary. There is a couple I know that couldn't decide on a name until the baby was born.

All my children were named after bible names and no other family name was used (aside from our last name :lol:).

My daughters name is harder to pronounce and not real common. I have run across another one in the same HMO that we were in when she was a baby though. That girl was probably about 6 years older than mine.

My husband and I had our names picked out before the baby was born. We didn't know what we were having for the first two. My daughter so wanted me to have twins the last pregnancy so she could have a sister. She still wants a sister. Oh well.

Dessa,

Too funny. :lol:

I like all the name you've picked. I'm kinda partial to Charlie though. My favorite cats name was Charlie :P

When my husband and I were pregnant with our son (1st born) we were planning on naming him Sean (after hubby's bf) Then, I was sitting at the dinner table with my Mom and it just came to me, "August". She looked at me and said, "that was my grandfathers name!" My husband and I knew we had found our boy's name. It fits him perfectly :wub:

You will know what to name your son, you will feel it :)

I vote for Charles. It is actually one of the names that I want but I can't seem to get my husband on board. :) Tyler is a very nice name as well but speaking as someone who has had 9 friends give birth this year alone, and 8 more who are currently pregnant (no I am not exaggerating, it's genuinely bizarre) I can tell you that Tyler is going to be a very common name. He will probably be one of four Tylers in his class that will probably include five girls named Taylor. Apparently Taylor is the new Jennifer. However, since it is going to be his name forever I say if you really like Tyler than go for it. You have to pick something you love.

As for popularity...I've been teaching for ten years and have never had a student named Tyler.

Harrison ? My friend called her son that and its a great name if you like it :lol: Harry or Harrison for later. I had a list of names but never was able to have kids - so Tobias, Rupert, Broderick.....( you should see my girls list ! )

Tyler is nice but a top female singer was Bonnie Tyler going back a while. How about Taylor ?

Robin is boy and Robyn is girl but seems mixed up now.

Last night we officially decided on Tyler James! I'm very happy with our choice and glad to have the decision behind now. Now I'm going to start on his room and buying all the gear he will need.

I can't think of a better name. I absolutely love Tyler James (and Ty for short).

      Headaches / Migraines and Hypoglycaemia

      By Sarah Grace · Posted

      Dear Kitty Since March I have been following your recommendations regarding vitamins to assist with various issues that I have been experiencing.  To recap, I am aged 68 and was late diagnosed with Celiac about 12 years ago.  I had been experiencing terrible early morning headaches which I had self diagnosed as hypoglycaemia.  I also mentioned that I had issues with insomnia, vertigo and brain fog.   It's now one year since I started on the Benfotiamine 600 mg/day.  I am still experiencing the hypoglycaemia and it's not really possible to say for sure whether the Benfotiamine is helpful.  In March this year, I added B-Complex Thiamine Hydrochloride and Magnesium L-Threonate on a daily basis, and I am now confident to report that the insomnia and vertigo and brain fog have all improved!!  So, very many thanks for your very helpful advice. I am now less confident that the early morning headaches are caused by hypoglycaemia, as even foods with a zero a GI rating (cheese, nuts, etc) can cause really server headaches, which sometimes require migraine medication in order to get rid off.  If you are able to suggest any other treatment I would definitely give it a try, as these headaches are a terrible burden.  Doctors in the UK have very limited knowledge concerning dietary issues, and I do not know how to get reliable advice from them. Best regards,

      High DGP-A with normal IGA

      @rei.b,  I understand how frustrating starting a new way of eating can be.  I tried all sorts of gluten-free processed foods and just kept feeling worse.  My health didn't improve until I started the low histamine AIP diet.  It makes a big difference.   Gluten fits into opioid receptors in our bodies.  So, removing gluten can cause withdrawal symptoms and reveals the underlying discomfort.  SIBO can cause digestive symptoms.  SIBO can prevent vitamins from being absorbed by the intestines.  Thiamine insufficiency causes Gastrointestinal Beriberi (bloating, abdominal pain, nausea, diarrhea or constipation).  Thiamine is the B vitamin that runs out first because it can only be stored for two weeks.  We need more thiamine when we're sick or under emotional stress.  Gastric Beriberi is under recognised by doctors.  An Erythrocyte Transketolace Activity test is more accurate than a blood test for thiamine deficiency, but the best way to see if you're low in thiamine is to take it and look for health improvement.  Don't take Thiamine Mononitrate because the body can't utilize it well.  Try Benfotiamine.  Thiamine is water soluble, nontoxic and safe even at high doses.  I thought it was crazy, too, but simple vitamins and minerals are important.  The eight B vitamins work together, so a B Complex, Benfotiamine,  magnesium and Vitamin D really helped get my body to start healing, along with the AIP diet.  Once you heal, you add foods back in, so the AIP diet is worth doing for a few months. I do hope you'll consider the AIP diet and Benfotiamine.

      Finding gluten free ingredients

      By captaincrab55 · Posted

      Imemsm, Most of us have experienced discontinued, not currently available or products that suddenly become seasonal.   My biggest fear about relocating from Maryland to Florida 5 years ago, was being able to find gluten-free foods that fit my restricted diet.  I soon found out that the Win Dixie and Publix supper markets actually has 99% of their gluten-free foods tagged, next to the price.  The gluten-free tags opened up a  lot of foods that aren't actually marked gluten-free by the manufacture.  Now I only need to check for my other dietary restrictions.  Where my son lives in New Hartford, New York there's a Hannaford Supermarket that also has a gluten-free tag next to the price tag.  Hopefully you can locate a Supermarket within a reasonable travel distance that you can learn what foods to check out at a Supermarket close to you.  I have dermatitis herpetiformis too and I'm very sensitive to gluten and the three stores I named were very gluten-free friendly.  Good Luck

      Okay well the info about TTG-A actually makes a lot of sense and I wish the PA had explained that to me. But yes, I would assume I would have intestinal damage from eating a lot of gluten for 32 years while having all these symptoms. As far as avoiding gluten foods - I was definitely not doing that. Bread, pasta, quesadillas (with flour tortillas) and crackers are my 4 favorite foods and I ate at least one of those things multiple times a day e.g. breakfast with eggs and toast, a cheese quesadilla for lunch, and pasta for dinner, and crackers and cheese as a before bed snack. I'm not even kidding.  I'm not really big on sugar, so I don't really do sweets. I don't have any of those conditions.  I am not sure if I have the genes or not. When the geneticist did my genetic testing for EDS this year, I didn't think to ask for him to request the celiac genes so they didn't test for them, unfortunately.  I guess another expectation I had is  that if gluten was the issue, the gluten-free diet would make me feel better, and I'm 3 months in and that hasn't been the case. I am being very careful and reading every label because I didn't want to screw this up and have to do gluten-free for longer than necessary if I end up not having celiac. I'm literally checking everything, even tea and anything else prepacked like caramel dip. Honestly its making me anxious 😅

      So you're saying that you think you should have severe intestinal damage since you've had the symptoms so long?   DGP IgG antibodies are produced in response to a partial gluten molecule.  This is different than what tissue transglutaminase antibodies are  produced in response to.   TTg IgA antibodies are produced in the intestines in response to gluten.  The tTg IgA antibodies attack our own cells because a structural component in our cell membranes resembles a part of gluten.  There's a correlation between the level of intestinal damage with the level of tTg antibodies produced.  You are not producing a high number of tTg IgA antibodies, so your level of tissue damage in your intestines is not very bad.  Be thankful.   There may be reasons why you are not producing a high quantity of tTg IgA antibodies.  Consuming ten grams or more of gluten a day for two weeks to two months before blood tests are done is required to get sufficient antibody production and damage to the intestines.  Some undiagnosed people tend to subconsciously avoid lots of gluten.  Cookies and cakes do not contain as much gluten as artisan breads and thick chewy pizza crust.  Anemia, diabetes and thiamine deficiency can affect IgA antibody production as well.   Do you carry genes for Celiac?  They frequently go along with EDS.
