Good Lord……I can totally empathize with her! My son was 12 days overdue and finally my doctor told me I had 2 more days to deliver on my own or he was doing it for me! The very next morning my water broke!!!

Congrats to Jason and Amanda. I loved him on the hogan family, had a crush on him lol. Anyway I love the name Franchesca, although I usually like the spelling Francesca. This name always reminds me of like a pretty brunette girl, and it’s not an overly used name, but at the same time it’s normal and quite girly.

Congratulations to them! I love the name. When I first saw the post, it had Franchesca spelled with the ‘h’. That’s the way it’s pronounced, but I agree with Gabriella that I like it better without the ‘h’. then again, I’m quite the stickler for spelling and etymology.

Anyway, congratulations to them again!
