Whether it’s in the animal world or human, pregnancy is a very important time for any family. It is that special blessing that allows families to bond better, to express love and take care of each other. At a time like this, there’s: happiness on everyone’s face and that truly can’t be replicated by any other joy in the world. The experience of conceiving is entirely a woman’s domain and her happiness can spread joy to every family members face. This is a time when she needs to be cared for, well fed and treated more or less like a princess and yes we’re talking about pampering her as much as you can because she brings to us a gift that’s not possible from any other source. Pregnancy is an important time in the family and all family members need to ensure that the soon to be mother does not exhaust or strain herself right from the early days. So when it comes to little household chores, picking up things behind you or little errands in the neighborhood all family members need to do their bit.

When it comes to pregnancy, the little bump will not be evident or noticeable at its inception and neither are you going for a sonography on the very first day, but there’s tell tale signs of pregnancy. First and foremost most women become aware just as soon as they miss their period dates. You could let it go unnoticed if you were about a week late, but longer than that may just be the sign you were looking for and it’s time to talk to your doctor. Once you’re pregnant, your appetite will invariably increase. You will certainly be hungry before meal times or will feel the need to nibble away even when it’s not time to eat. This is not all; you’re also going to eat a little more despite having eaten all the tidbits. Here’s another sign. For women, you could always, press around your nipples with just a little extra force to observe if there is a watery white secretion from your nipples. This isn’t something you’d do ordinarily but if you’re feeling something within, this is a guaranteed sign. Another sign, which is usually noticed by family members, is mood swings. As a result of the phenomenal hormone changes within you there’s going to be noted changes in your demeanor. We don’t mean irrational but they’ll certainly be a little different from your usual character.

Of course after the initial hunches and predictions, there’ll be the medical tests, confirmations and precautions to be taken. Honestly, though a long period the excitement is too much for any family and time will certainly fly past, and sooner or later, it’s time for the delivery. When it comes to choosing a name for your little bundle of joy, different families do it their way. There are many who will simply check the internet for popular names, whereas others will name the child after someone who has played an important role in their lives.

When it comes to naming baby boys, there are many families where the child is named just as his father only he’ll have a junior added to it. For example Robert Downing will have a son called Robert Downing Jr. There are others who choose names inspired from events or places in their lives. For example a little boy could be called Roman if he was conceived on a Roman holiday. Other little boys can be named after popular sports persons. This includes David from David Beckham, Roger from Roger Federer or even Lance from Lance Armstrong. Your little boy could well be named after his grandfather or even an uncle. Little boys can also be named after leading actors and as such there’s a great many Toms, Brads and Bens. A little child’s name can also be created by taking a bit from the mothers and fathers names. For example, parents with the name Mike and Rachael could easily name their son Michael. The possibilities are many. For those who’re influenced by literature, your sons’ names could be popular characters from Shakespeare’s creations and there are others who select names from the holy book itself. So whether your name’s Hugh, Jude, Alex, Lucas, Neo, Milan, Ethan or anything else, it’s special because when you were a little boy, there was a lot of thought behind finding you the best name.
