Has anyone ordered from here? I'm trying to figure out their returns policy - do they do free returns? I know you can't return to store and I'm unwilling to order if (as well as paying for delivery) I have to pay for any returns....

You can return them to the store, I ordered a number of maternity clothes from Asda in my normal size, then another lot exactly the same in the size down as they didn't fit, and I returned them all to the store no problem. You do have to pay the postage to return the items if you do it that way - which is why I took them to the store lol.

Bloody BarcleyCard *sigh* last month my DD didn't go out - Well it did but my bank recalled it as I was moving accounts and they were a little trigger happy... realising what was happening I called them and said I think it's been recalled should I make an extra payment etc? Was told no it's all fine... thinking ok I don't trust that I made a manual payment anyway. Long and short was the payment was recalled, BANG on goes failed payment charges and late fees... ok cue call to Barcley card saying I DID call you and was told all was fine etc nice chap said "yes I can see you called us - I will refund the charges and a good will payment as way of appology" I asked if the next payment would be fine as I had set up the DD for new account. "Yes that's going to be fine" - it was set up and confirmed by my bank on the 21st of Jan. So next payment date comes and goes - day before it's due I check all DDs are up and that the payment method on the credit card site is set to DD and all looks good - super me thinks... WRONG. They didn't take it ARGH!
So today get new statement saying I have defaulted again...
Me back on phone in foul mood as not having a good day with being off sick etc poor chap tried to stand his ground till I lost patience and said "Right you record the calls there so I now want the last call I made to be reviewed so you can confirm to me exactly what was said and that I had made all reasonable in my power to ensure this was paid and as your site and my bank both stated the DD was set up I had to way of knowing the payment would not be taken". Off he went for a few minutes and comes back to let me know that he'll refund me the charges again and restore my 0% offer. HA! Take that BarclayCard!
Still angry with them for stressing me out and trying to tangle me up with their internal terminology (good luck - I spend too much time on DFW!!!!) Will be interesting to see if they try and mark my account with late payments on my credit report... lord help them if they do!!!!

Morning girls,hope your all well,sorry to crash your thread again but I have good reason to this time..Ive had my BFP this morning!! :j :j :j :j

Maybe abit too early to ask to join you lot though? Im not quite 4weeks gone yet! I was just so excited though and Ive been lurking in your thread,trying to keep up with you all, since before xmas.

Can I just ask...can anyone reccomend a good site for giving you your EDD cos Ive been on 2 or 3 and I seem to be getting different dates from each one!
Thanks, Helen x

Congratulations :j
Sorr cant reccomend a site as when I got my BFP it was a complete and utter shock and I had no idea when my LMP was

Morning all

So glad to come back to happy news that everything is fine with Caz! Sending lots of labour vibes.

I'm fine, Birthday improved greatly. Went home to visit family, and had a kebab, a steak, a cinnamon cake (made by my Dad!) and a chocolate birthday cake. And some parkin (weird Northern thing, but nice).

Getting all sorts of weird pains and aches, and blood sugar levels are all over the place, which is the reason for me going all funny and getting all emotional. Its weird, when I'm fine I feel so silly for how upset I get! I just go all tired and miserable, and eveything is horrible and awful and I just want to sit and cry.

FIL isn't very well still Which is hard for OH, he wants to help but isn't really anything we can do. My Nan isn't that well either. She is 90, and lives in a flat in a retirement community. They have a warden for emergencies, but apart from the Social Services care to get her out of bed, and to put her to bed, she doesn't have any care. She doesn't want to go to a care home type place at all, but is struggling a bit. She is as sharp as anything, but her legs don't work very well. Very sad

I don't know if its being pregnant, but I seem to be acutely aware of people dying. Does anyone else feel almost responsible? Its as if by bringing this new life into the world, I'm pushing someone else out.

Your a poet and you didnt know it
Glad you had a goot time in the end.
Sorry to hear about your FIL and Nan hun xx

God I have got this awful pain right in the middle of my back, I really hope it isnt the start of muscle spasms :eek: woke up with it this morning, if it is then i'm !!!!!!d coz I usually get a shot of Diclofenac but cant now i'm preggers, have started on the co codamol to try and take the edge off!

Making a trip up the shop and back with my nightmare DS didnt help, wish he was older so he could help me carry the bags :rotfl:

And still getting the horrified looks when I tell people how far along I am, Mums friend saw me in Somerfield and gave me the most sympathetic look i've seen yet when I told her I still ahve 9 weeks to go, why do they do it? do you not think I feel huge enough already without the prospect of giving birth to a fully grown pigme! :rotfl:

Helen when was your LMP as on my reckoning your period isn't due until Friday of this week. Is that correct can you really test that early these days?

Oooh trenery - Isla-Sofia is a lovely name:D

I hope you get something sorted out, pregnancy is both the most wonderful and the most stressful time isn't it!!

AF yep, I can't believe how much trouble we are having this time...God knows how those with loads of kids manage to name them all!!!!

Mel x

I just never imagined how hard it would be to pick a name. Admittedly I never grew up thinking I would have children so I wasn't one with names already decided.

I can see our baby being nameless for a few days

Helen, The problem is when you start altering the legnth of your cycle, our midwives and doctors don't do that here! But then they don't give us an actual due date till our booking scan at 12 weeks (a scan before 6 weeks is not accurate either). What to do to get the same EDD your mw will give you is leave the cycle legnth at 28 days. But to get a more accurate date, set it to your cycle length... confused yet??? :rotfl:

There is one that is awesome, it gives you what gestation you are on what day... I will try and find it.

So far, I have 3 dates... one based on my scan at 6 weeks which said I was 5/3, the one my mw gave me and the one I used my cycle legnth for, which is what I'm using as it feels about right.
