What is your middle name? Does it carry any special meaning/significance?
My middle name is Juliana and my parents named me after my great nonna. She was a strong, fearless, independent woman.
No other real significance. Just special because I carry on her name.
Ciao!

Daniela Juliana, love it ❤️ Does Valeria have a middle name?

aww thank you! ❤ Yes, she has a middle name and initially we were going to pick a family name and decided not to. We felt it wasn't fair to either of our mothers to choose one name over the other, so we picked Calista as her middle name 😁

It’s beautiful! I love it. Both names are so feminine and cute. Did you have a boy name picked out? I was convinced Dalila was a boy and she was going to be an Elias lol

Oh I like the name Elias! It’s such a strong masculine name. Yes, we do have a named picked for a boy, just in case with our next one, it’s Stefan, after my husband’s grandfather who was an Olympic Wrestler. Are you going to try for another?

That’s a beautiful name, you have good taste! Is your husband Italian too? I don’t know if you’ve mentioned that. Honestly, we’d love a third kid. The plan was always to have three but I don’t know if my body could take another high risk pregnancy and a third C-section. Plus, we’d have to get a bigger car and move to a different place and we can’t afford that right now. Maybe we’ll look into adopting someday. Would you like yours to be close in age or would you like a bigger age gap?

Thank you! No my husband is Romanian, so our kids are going to be extra feisty lol but with my age, I’m 34, I have to take that into consideration and I dont want to have kids when I’m gonna be close to 40, too risky. So yes, my kids will be close in age, probably similar to yours. And adoption is a wonderful idea, I dont blame you for your concerns. Having two C-Sections is touch on the body, I couldn’t even imagine a third, yikes!

Oh, I knew that. You had mentioned several times that he’s Romanian, forgive my mom brain lol
Yes, the risk does increase with age. That was one of the reasons I wanted to have them so close in age and not closer to 35, because my first pregnancy had already been high risk. Women give birth well into their 40’s every day with no issues but I don’t think that would be the case for me at all. I know of women who’ve had more than two C-sections, even with vaginal births in between but my doctor is very careful with that and was not supportive of me trying a vaginal birth the second time around and even less so of me having a third baby, so yeah. I guess we’ll just have our two girls. Funnily enough, we’d both love a third girl lol my husband is not the type of man who years for a male heir haha he loves being a girl dad

It’s nice to hear that your doctor is looking out for you and your health, you are very fortunate to have a doctor who cares. I wasn’t a high risk for this pregnancy, however I do know that my age comes risks, that’s why I tell my husband, if we have two kids then that’s amazing, if we have three it’s a blessing. But it’s funny you mentioned your husband loving being a girl dad, my husband does too. He even said he wouldn’t mind having another girl lol
