    Feely, go on, go and collect your Bounty Bag from Asda! Its gots washing powder and stuff in it so its not really that baby related!! ;):D.

    And PLEASE promise me you will accept the bags the Bounty lady offers you in hospital as it has the Child Benefit form enclosed (£20 p/w!) :j

    Only 4.5 weeks and I've got my 34 week scan. I did say I'd buy things after that, so perhaps I will!

    According to the statistics I read, if I had him now, there would be a 92% chance he'd live. So I suppose I should get on with it soon.

    Its all scary though! Everything is so little.

    Is child benefit £20 pw???

    Is it terrible that I don't know that?

    Snowing again here...

    What can I have for lunch?
    yeah it went up in Jan.
    Oh and dont forget that in order to claim tax credits you need to be in receipt of CB, well I did with DS anyway.
    So no refusing of the bounty pack, well you could but then you will have to sort out the forms yourself.

    I have lost my appitite a bit lately too, i need to eat though as havent eaten since yesterday lucnhtime.

    Looks like nan will be staying in at least tonight, they just took her down for xrays, she's on a drip and they think she may have a chest infection, they are trying to get a urine sample but she has hardly been drinking so thats gonna be a hard task!
    In a way i think she needs this coz we try and try to get her to do what she needs to, eat properly, drink properly, walk about, but she is so stubborn.

  • Not well enough to catch up so sorry if someone else has already said, but Morrisons is doing 1/3 off huggies nappies incase anyone is stocking up :)

    It is :D

    Start with a 3-6m outfit - they are much less scary and he will need it soon enough!

    I had a buying frenzy at about 32 or 33 weeks for the big stuff but I had got loads of stuff before that (nappies and some little outfits etc)

    Internet shopping is fab - you can order and if necessary leave it wrapped up til 34 weeks.

    I can't find a link to the first rompa suits I bought for Bubba but they something along these lines:

    Proper bright 'I am little boy' clothes - none of your namby pamby baby boy blue (no offence anyone)!!

    Got me started!

    AM - no wonder you're knackard if you're not eating properly! get yourself something decent made missus!! :D

    Triggles - how sweet little liam!! round here they test for sickle n thalasemia (sp?) in the booking blood routinely - although not last time they only did last time if u knew u had some ethinc blood

    MFD why not order the monitor, have it delivered to work and say they clubbed together and got it for you :cool: Although in our house I just buy stuff and tell hubby it was a bargain just like his huuge collection of DVDs computer games, shoes etc - can you beleive he has about 10 coats :eek: I own a posh coat and a ski jacket - that's it!
