elle our bugaboo takes the maxi cosi car seat, but we chose the car seat for it's isofix base rather than the pram compatibility - that was an added bonus!

MFD get well soon - sorry you feel rubbish

I'm knackered so on sofa waiting for dleep to catch me up.

Random, but I think these are cute. I think I've seen them on Amazon.. I'd best start making a list or I'm going to forget things I've seen and liked!

wish i could get myself past the 'must have one handle' for the pram, but i just cant'. would have loved to have put in a bid when you listed it.

what's not so good about the silver cross car seat then?? any tips?

AF I felt the same about wanting one handle too - can't explain it, just that it was one of my stricter requirements

I think my boss has had a personality transplant.. She's just text me, saying she's glad I'm a bit better (must have spoken to OH) and not to worry if I'm no better tomorrow, just to text her in the morning to let her know, followed by a kiss! She was sick all day every day during her pregnancy so I was expecting no sympathy at all from her - mine can never be as bad as hers, etc etc!

AF Me and My bessie mum mate have both got the 3D with ventura seat and both of us had to replace the seat way before he age/weight restriction because our bubs were too tall :mad: our kids are a bit tall but not massively, so we were quite annoyed that we had to get a new group 0 seat so soon - luckily my friend gave me her old one and my friend got a 0+1 one so it would last longer.
Also the SX one I found to be really hard to carry and seemed (although haven't checked) to be much heavier than other ones.

AF - even if you exclusively breastfeed then sterilisers are useful for dummies and teething toys etc (although you prob won't need an electric one lol)

Sami - I don't use my microwave for anything really - other than putting a pot plant on top :rotfl: and then the steriliser would need a cupboard to live in...


:eek: OMG - if Bubba arrived today we might be ready for him :eek:

MFD: was the link you posted for the seller you used? just it says usually despatched in 1 - 2 months doesn't really matter as I've got a while but just put me off a bit

If you have the micro but don't use it then you can keep the steriliser in the microwave :cool: thats what a few people I know did

Edit - also came in handy as u can use it for cold water steri as we visited my sis who doesn't have a micro

Sami - that is the one I bought. I have to admit I didn't look at the length of delivery at the time but it came today, ordered Friday PM.

Edit:
Yup - just been back through the link and it says I ordered it on Friday! Mine is black though - the one on the picture is called penguin I think!

oh that's interesting. hubby is 6'4 but i am only 5'6. i have heard the car seat can be a bit heavy, but i never thought of the height thing
