  • Hi all...

    It's been about a year since I last posted on here. :D I can't believe Ruby has just celebrated her first birthday. It's flown by!

    Congratulations to the new mummy's! Especially SB...I remember awaiting your news on Poppy. You did well on just gas & air...I can't believe what a whopper your son is! Well done you. :T

    I've spotted a few other names on here I remember from when I was expecting Ruby...

    Shelvis

    Hope you ladies are doing ok!?

    Anyway Hubby & I have decided we are going to start TTC again so hopefully I'll be back with some good news soon! ;)

    xx
    Our 1st baby is due 29th December 2007! :rudolf:
    I'm hopeful that this get's me out of cooking Christmas dinner!

    Baby Ruby arrived after 55 hours of labour & an emergency c section on Christmas Day at 14.41 weighing 6lb 6oz...And yes I did get out of cooking Christmas dinner!!:rotfl:

    Pricess81, try Next's sale online. I got lots in a size eight and saw quite a few six's although I was looking for talls rather than petites. Lots of size six tops left, I noticed :)

    Search results for 6P: http://eoss.next.co.uk/search?p=Q&ts=sale-v2&w=*&cnt=30&nxti=0&nxtv=000&isort=title+rev&sale=eoys0n&pfg=s85wriaw6i&images=on&af=cat%3Awomenswear+sub%3Amaternity+si%3A6p&div=womenswear&group=maternity&size=6p&price=

    Plus 36 items in size 6R :)

    How short a leg? *note to MSE bods* I'm not using the site to sell stuff :A
    I have 3 pairs of mat trousers from last time mothercare size 8 grey combats (30" length I think) black office trousers also 30" and grey pinstripe 32" if you want to PM me I could let you know when I get them on ebay :D

    congrats SB and MissC :T :T :T :T :T

    glad you are both safe and well and so are your boys

    thanks for the links ladies re the calcium enriched juices/foods. going to try and get in to see my doc this week anyway so will mention the calcium issue with him. i was meant to be taking 2 tablets earlier this year, but when i fell pregnant the doc said to knock it down to one. when i saw the midwife she said not to worry about supplement and bubs will take what he/she needs. just dont want to suffer later on if bubs is stripping me dry :D

    went looking at prams and cribs today. think i have settled on the pram i want, but still debating the moses basket/crib question
  • Elle - I will look at next on-line I did go in the store but as my hubby pointed out most of the non sale stock is probably out the back

    Sami - I think its 28" length

    I have trouble getting trousers at the best of times I was getting a bit upset (hormones kicking in now not used to all this getting upset thing!) at the moment i can slob around in jogging bottoms at home and i've got some linen trousers that will keep me going for a short while

    Oh, thinking of prams, there are lots on Boots.com in the sale and with double points. Lots of Graco travel systems and about 5-6 tandems (although I checked them all thinking of IckleBeans and they're not ones for twins; they're all front=6m+, back=from birth type). HTH :)
  • Elle - stupid question does P as in 6p mean petite?
