  • Hi all

    Lurker, reader and occasional poster!!!

    Congratulations to Mr and Mrs Weezl on the sproglet. I think the extra 50p is well justified.

    Oh what lovely news. As you are eating for two it is only natural you should budget for two. Makes perfect sense to me. I am looking forward to hearing all about Fergus over the coming months. Congrats to you and AM. xx

    Congrats on the news,:T as far as the challenge goes I think you have to do whats best for you and bubba, if that means abandoning or adjusting it I don't think anyone here will question you on that one. You've got the most important job your body has ever done coming up and its most important for both of you that you get proper nutrition, which as we all know (and you've shown us) doesn't have to blow the bank but your first priority should be your health.
    The start of the best adventure of your life is about to start. Its the most exhilarating, exhusting, draining, rewarding, stimulating, exciting, stressful, thankless, thankfull, amazing experience I've ever had and long may it continue!:j

    To be frugal, you need to spend money wisely, simply spending less is not enough.

  • Happy birthday for tomorrow ISOM!! Hope you are feeling better after your recent hospital stay.

    Do others agree with me that with price increases and impending baby that the weezl's should up the budget a bit? I know that mrs weezl will struggle with this but am also concerned that she gets some fruit into her diet...answers please cos I never manage to convince her on me own!
    I posted since my last shopping trip (yesterday) that I thought the budget should be increased just to cover the rising costs of foodstuffs........ and this FANTASTICAL news certainly means there's a third budget to be spent in the house :D

    For Weezl and AM -- Huuuuuuuuuge CONGRATULATIONS :j:T:dance:

    And for ISOM for tomorrow -- Happy Birthday _party_:bdaycake:_party_

  • I am a long time lurker on this thread but I am so moved that I had to post.

    :j Congratulations! :j

    I know that you want to remain true to the challenge, however the baby comes first above all else and no-one but no-one expects you to keep rigidly to your old budget or indeed any budget if that is what you choose.

    The cost of food has risen shockingly in the last few months so you really need to factor that in addition to budgeting the extra 50p for Fergus.

    Your great news has brought me out of lurkerdom! So once again Congrats (....gets off soap box and crawls back to hide in the corner)

    Right now I'm having amnesia and deja- vu at the same time. I think I've forgotten this before
