And I'm so lazy, I've got a cleaner coming next week to give me an estimate. Only a couple of hours a week, and only the jobs I really hate (kitchen floor, argh!).

I'm awful.

And I almost bought one of those eggs, it shall be the first thing I buy when I get to 34 weeks.

Buy it today Feelie - honestly, once you have got that first scary purchase out of the way it gets MUCH easier (I am a confirmed baby-shop-aholic!)

I used to have a cleaners once a week and I loved them to pieces (although I used to work over 70 hours a week so I told myself I deserved it!) I wish I could have them again but we live in a very small community now and hubby says the neighbours will talk :rotfl:

Really good idea about the HV visiting early - we get a visit from the Surestart people at our local Childrens Village to encourage us to use their facilities which I thought was good too.
Speak to the HV about your antenatal classes too

myaccount - I have had spatone and tablets from the docs - make me feel a lot brighter.

AF - the one thing that has really surprised me about the egg is how cool the 16 - 20 degree range actually is. It has probably saved me the cost of it in gas because we now don't put the fire on unless the egg goes blue (or BAD TEMPERATURE as DSS calls it :rotfl: )

Only £15 on amazon

oh bless DSS, what does he say for yellow again???

hmmm... not so great on amazon me, only bought on thing. might ask my friend to buy it for me on there as she is a lot more up to speed on amazon than me (i'm an ebay girl )

I didn't know you could get spatone from the Drs? I'll definitely ask next week

I bought the spatone myself at boots on 3 for 2 worked out cheaper than paying for the prescription myself (some dizzy cow had lost my free prescription form :whistle: )

Spatone doesn't make your poo black :T

Myaccount, I got a couple from Adams the other day, they call them bundlers.

Very cute in the flesh (as it were...) Not actually seen any anywhere else... But then not looked extensively...

hello ladies

im assuming your talking about those temperature eggs?? i was also very tempted to buy one.. until i read reviews on amazon.. alot of people said they were out alot which worried me?

Thanks for the info thats good the spatone dont do that to you, i always find that abit weird with the pills. I have IBS so can't tolerate the pills or liquid i got last time.

I haven't even heard of the term bundlers before so never would've known! I had my neice 1/2 the week for 2 years and i remember how annoying the poppers are, i think those things look so much easier

Bought a dreampod from mamas and papas last week - this one here
http://www.mamasandpapas.co.uk/product-dreampod-10-tog-06-mths-barnaby-buttons/734063401/type-i/

It is half price at the moment (£14 instead of £28)

It is only a 1.0 Tog, on the packet it says this is suitable for high summer and daytime naps. So this is going to be perfect for the time of year our baby is due. HTH.

I have such baby brain! I'm sitting here thinking I'll do Aimee's dinner at 5... Then for some reason thought it was half 5 and hubby would be on his way out of work so just called him... Even though I knew it wasn't even 5 yet! And when I realised my mistake I cried... bah...

Completely agree about the easiness myaccount... I've bought them for the early days when every time they wake for a feed in the night you need to change a dirty nappy... Saves disturbing them too much messing with their legs...

djd - I hadn't seen those reviews! We actually checked ours when we bought it because we were surprised by how cool the house should be and it is spot on according to my neighbours fancy digital thingie!!

I know SB has one too and recommends it!


There are plenty of good reviews too (especially recently) so maybe there was a fault that has been changed.

I love mine regardless!!

I have a galileo thermometer... Not very technical... But it looks pretty...
