    Yep they have shops - I usually go either to the one in Oxford or the new one in Milton Keynes - check their website I'm sure it must have a list of shops there :)
    Thanks, nearest one to me is Brighton, will probably wait till I get my PI settlement to go up there, costs a fortune on the train.

  • AM - I bought some E cup and F cup bras from tesco which were non-underwired and reasonably priced. I have now gone up 2 band sizes to a 40 :eek:

    I have always struggled to get along with bravissimo - I'm usually a Freya girl too - so I wouldn't order from there without a fitting. I use a small independent shop in the town where I work - get a sizing from them (sometimes buy something) and then buy elsewhere.


    SB - it was the first thing I thought of this morning - all bubba needs to do now is just sit tight and get fat til I'm ready for him ;):D

    I usually go to debenhams to get measured but I always go to the same one and make sure that one of the ladies I like is in as sometimes you get a clueless newbie.
    the only things I was told about bras when preg is, normally you buy a bra that fits on the loosest hook but when preg get one that fits on the tightest so you can loosen as bump gets bigger.
    and the usual not underwired although I ignored that bit as I have never seen a non-underwired bra that does a good lift n seperate job and with puppies the size of mine I need a sturdy bra.

    PS. I'm well peeved coz Holly Wiloughby has just said she hasn't had any sickness or anything just a bit more tired than usual pah I know hate her lol

  • Morning all,

    I am now in week 13 and went for my nuchal scan this morning on the twins. Apparently I am in the low risk so all is fine there, a relief.

    The scan took a while but was great. Both of them moving around so much - 4 hands and feet everywhere. Also got another 3 scan pics of them - two of them together and one of each of them. They have grown 2cm in 13 days - amazing!
    Proud mother of twin boys - double the trouble and twice the pleasure! :T

    Oh well, I have to confess as a northerner I think most places dahn sarf are near london :p

    yey ickle! glad the bubs are ok n doing well. its all extra exciting coz there's two!
    I can't wait so see my bubba on wednesday only 2 more sleeps!!! we're going to IL's for tea after the scan so we're gonna tell them then but stopping MIL announcing it on facebook will be hard and we want to keep it secret from my mum n dad until saturday when my sis will be home so we can tell them all together coz last time my mum told sis before I could:rolleyes:

  • Glad it went well for you icklebeans - I have to say I don't envy you when they start kicking and punching - I feel like I am getting battered enough with just 2 arms and legs!!!


    Which reminds me - has anyone else got a baby with stage fright?? Bubba will kick and punch me like anything and as soon as I say to hubby 'feel this' and he puts his hand on me bubba just stops :mad: then as soon as hubby gives up waiting and takes his hand away bubba starts up again... It's so frustrating!
