I say "I'm 21wks, due beginning of June" and they can decide how many months they call it
and technically a month is 4.2 or 4.3 weeks

well if you don't mind 2nd hand I'd happily let you have my car seat to save you some pennies :cool:


oohh I've just seen Obama being sworn in and it made me well up!

oh bless you sami.

if we dont go for the M&Ps option (which does come with the car seat) i will let you know.

your advice yesterday re the car seat was helpful, becuase it made me look at the M&Ps car seat with more interest (does look longer than silver cross one)

i love mamas and papas stuff.. dont know if ive already told you all but i won on ebay and load of nursery furniture for 206 which comes to 690 on their site!!

ive also been offered a car seat for 25 quid. gonna have a loko before buying it but as i visit my mum alot and we go out together it might be handy to have, just to keep in my mums car. im in croydon, shes in lowestoft!!

Hello!
I had my 22week scan yesterday and the sonographer thinks bump may be a girl (although due to my deep seeded issues with pink I have told my mum that if it is a girl we will tye dye any pink baby clothes)

Oh and a bit of a random one but I have found a love for rice crispy treats and in true MSE style found its cheaper to make than buy!

150g Marshmallows
20g butter
1/2 tsp vanilla essence
Lots of rice crispies

Melt butter in a pan
Add marshmallows and stir till melted
Add vanilla and stir in
Add Rice crispies and stir till coated
with greased hands place the mix in a greased dish and leave to cool

Result yummy rice crispy treats!!! Num num!

ticklepenny - glad your scan went well. i dont envy you if you are having a girl but have a dislike of pink. the sets produced all seem to be pink don't they.

although, i have some nice lemon and lime pits and pieces.

that recipes sounds nice, a little like a mars bar slice i used to make a long time back

Recently I have started baking more and more.... I am now addicted. Today I am off work so will be cooking Goat Korma (hehe) with Aloo Gobi and Naans all from scratch but I will cheat and buy the poppadoms because I prefer them from the shop lol.


Warning Rant!:mad:
I cant believe that the main option for girls clothes is pink. When I was younger I was always a tomboy (still am a bit). When I was 8, my mum asked me what colour I wanted my room and I chose blue. I went away to my grandparents for a week and came back to a fuscia pink bedroom, I was so upset I slept in the living room for a week. Ever since then I have hated pink - I think I am too good at holding grudges lol. But why do girls have to have pink? My favourite colours from when I was little to now have been - blue, purple, black and red. Hurumph - Rant over!:mad:

I know what you mean, I love pink but that doesn't mean if I get a girl I want her dressed head to toe in blooming pink everyday! I was a tom boy when I was little but went all girly at about 15
at least once you get to about 3-6mth clothes there is more choice, boots usually have some lovely navy and red outfits for girls :T

I don't like slogan t-shirts for chris coz they usually say something about being noisy or trouble and my LO is neither (usually)

My OH keeps saying we should just dye everything black - everyone see's me as a goth, I dont mind but dont really want a baby dressed in black :rolleyes:
