    Astonsmummy, wow DRAMA!!!! Hope your neighbour is ok and that the turd of a OH gets lost for good!

    Feely, I'm only 9 weeks and have allready PLANNED what I'm going to buy, all I need now is time to fast forward. I will be getting some esentials at 24 weeks, prem nappies, sleepsuits and vests allready checked with mothercare etc, they will swap the prem sizes if I don't use them, or I may just hand them into the SCBU. Then a list will be left for boots with money in an envelope for sending DH into town if I am early. Last time I ended up in boots a week after having DS2 on day release from hospital and I am never doing it again!!

    Got one pair of maternity jeans, not tried them on yet. My town centre is rubbish, only mothercare have maternity clothes! Got a £20 pair so quite happy. A few pairs of joggers for night time from primark and a subway:D
    I think she is, he's a waster anyway, alcoholic, no job etc, hopefully for her and the kids sake she realises now just how much he doesnt love her :(
    My life is always full of drama, but i suppose it keeps me from getting bored :rolleyes:

    Before I try and catch up with the thread... :)
    *snip*

    THEN - because £65 just wasnt' enugh to spend in one day... - I stopped by Babies'R'Us as they had a cot on sale I liked but it was sold out online - and they had it in stock in the shop! YAY So spent £165 on nusery furniture! :eek: £115 for the cot and £50 for the dresser - both are lovely and simple which is VERY us :)

    So today before lunch I have spent £230 :eek: (on my Amex card so at least I get cashback :rotfl:)

    Tine was the dresser one with a changing mat bit IYNWIM I want to replace our changing table and £50 would be a bargain if it does!

    Well I've just got back from ASDA, got the baby box, a little starter outfit for £5, some talc and then got OH's DD some clothes in the sale as she's coming down at the weekend.
    Didnt get any wipes, i prefer the ones from boots 2 for £2 an d they have a little lid on them, so will just buy a load of them soon.
    Got the insurance for my car, picking it up this evening, :j
    I got paid today aswell and got £60 more than I thought I was getting so now i dont feel too gutted about loosing the £20 last night _pale_

    Krystal is so smart and funny and wonderful I am struck dumb in awe in her presence.

  • Actually, there was something that the MW said that confuzzled me.
    She has always said my BP was 'perfect' or 'it always runs low, which is good' but today she said 'your BP always runs low, which is usually good but we need to keep an eye on you to make sure you don't get dizzy or pass out'

    Readings for the last couple of months (starting today and working backwards) are:

    28 Jan: 90/50
    14 Jan: 100/70
    31 Dec: 110/70
    10 Dec: 110/78
    1 Dec: 110/75
    12 Nov: 110/68

    Now, clearly I can see some progressive changes but I haven't got a clue what any of it means...anybody a bit brighter than me??

    Not asking for medical advice in any way - I've had that this morning :D just hate not understanding :rotfl:
