  • pipsmum - ** pregnancy vibes ** :) i think my dh would have a heart attack if there was two on the screen when we go for scan!!!lol....
    1hannah i know i dont waste anytime!! :) thanks for the congrats x

    What highchairs have you all got?? and are they anygood?? I need to get one for freya but not to sure what one to get - dont want to spend to much - but want it to last this baby aswell....... want one that reclines as she is not 6mths yet. any ideas :) was thinking i might get one from Tesco and double up my clubcard vouchers...

    Got £1 on scratchcard today :) better then the normal 10p, got £5 last week so all good.

    Have done my shopping onlne and its going to be under £100 -(not sure yet as it only gives a guid price) and thats shopping till the end of the mth - so will only need a few fresh bits next week :) so thought that was good.....

    My friend lent me a lovely coast dress but its a size 8 so i havent bothered trying it on but did last night and it fits!!!!!!!!(only just - but it fits..) I was shocked - it must be a big 8... so now i can wear that to the wedding i have and my mum brought me some lovely new shoes and the girls there outfits, so saved me lots :)

    anyway better go and check the onling banking.....

    Totally agree with Hannah I love the Ikea High chair, I did have a Mamas and Papas one, but all the baby mush got stuck in the creases on the plastic cushion (I really did begin to hate the thing) and I found it bulky where as the Ikea Highchair is brilliant really light the legs come off really easily (we take it on hols with us to use when we're camping). I wish I'd had known and I wouldn't have wasted the £40 onthe M&Ps one.

    rags - i think it is def a big size 8 as normally i sqeeze into 10s!!! but i dont care if it comes up big it still says a 8 on the label!!! lol..... not that it will last for long....

    Thanks for the info on the ikea one - i have heard sooo many good things about it!!! but as freya is not 6mths yet i was going to get a recliner one...but we have a bumbo with the tray so i might just use that if feeding before she can sit and get one - soo cheap and such good reputation........and a good excuses to go to ikea :):) how big is the tray for it??? an how much room on the floor does it take up - is it bulky???

  • Wow your doing well to get into 10s so close after having a baby, i am always around a 16 each time i have them!!!!!!!!!!!! although at the mo my weight has really crepped up since having the youngest so i really need to sort this out once i am back from holiday, maybe its because this is the longest i have gone with out getting pregnant again!!!!

    Hope you have a lovely time at the wedding.

    AN 8, A B****Y 8, are you joking me AN 8!!!!


    Humphs and slopes off as still way way over that!! Its gutting really as I LOST weight when I was having Pip because I was so ill but have put it all back on with just grabbing junk in the mornings as I tried to sort him out first.

    Our Highchair is from Mothercare and pip could have gone in it from birth. Dont know how much it was as we got given it.
