:wave: Hiya AF. I would ask if you've enjoyed your first week of maternity leave (I mean away from work), but I'm guessing not what with all the trips to the DAU! Fingers crossed for something happening for you soon

Don't think MFD will be too happy if you get there first tho! That said, all seems quiet from MFD Towers tonight.. Hope you're having a nice evening, MFD, if it's not all kicked off yet xx

Evening ladies and bumps !!!

Hope everyone is well, (( hugs )) for everyone who needs them

I have just had a call from the hospital to say my blood is at 10.3 so I have to go on Monday to collect a script for Galfer ???? whatever that is !!!

SB - it was a complete shock when the MW suggested a stretch and sweep. i didnt know whether to agree or not, but did in the end. she was lovely and explained everything. i said to her that i hoped she was on when i was having my baby. she even hugged me when i left. sooooo nice she was.

elle - apart from the trips to the DAU i have enjoyed my first week off. i never thought i would say that, but i have enjoyed being away from work. it is still on my mind a lot, but enjoying not having to go in.

AM - you do loads right love!!!!!!

I getcha I know SB likes her 3d but I hated it and the seat so you might be better of without it anyway have you seen the graco travel system thats in the Tesco baby fair?
i think its this one http://direct.tesco.com/q/R.203-1580.aspx not sure what the in store price was but its deff cheaper than 3D, you'd just need to check if the seat fitted.
Can I ask in what way did the SX seat not fit? any chance you were being a bit blonde?

I really did LOVE mine! . I still think they are one of the best looking prams too . Poor thing hasn't really had an outing this time around as Phil & Ted rules! :cool:. All four of us went to the big retail park in Speke this afternoon and Jamie was snug as a bug in the cocoon! :T.


AM, I was going to ask Sami's Q as the carseat fitted in my Punto. Tbh, I didn't attach the carset to the pram that much as I preferred Poppy to lie flat and she looked so cute!

MFD is at a 21st Birthday party tonight. So plenty of bopping to get things moving I hope.

AF - sorry I seem to be ignoring you (not on purpose!!) I don't have anything good to say tho, did you get anywhere with names? I got annoyed with my OH not bothering as he's convinced its a boy and that first name is sorted (still arguing over middles) so I've just given him a choice of three and said he has to pick from those and if he doesn't like them then he get blooming well think of some for himself!!

Elle - MFD is at a party remember so probably pooped

AM we couldn't get the SX seat in my mums car coz of her short seatbelts too, she'd had extenders fitted now (by a proper mechanic and the ones she has are legal/safe, mechanic is a friend and he made sure they were ) We used a britax one in her car which was fab and (2yrs ago now) was still available under the fisher price brand pretty cheap
I'm not a fan of the graco tesco pram either, was worth a try tho..

No i can assure you i wasnt having a blonde moment, the seatbelt is about 5 inches to bloody short, I was in the car for abut 40 mins trying and willing it to magically stretch but no it wouldnt, but after looking on the net it seems it;s a common thing the the ventura seat, I phoned my friend to tell her and she has the same problem but her dad has fitted a n extender on her seatbelt, which I wont do as I dont trust that.
Ooh no that buggy is vile , i'd rather have the Graco mosaic one.

I heard it's a problem in Ford cars too. Unfortunately OH and I bother have Fords (Focus and Fiesta) and that's the car seat I'd have to go with the Freeway Linear.. Sooo need to track one down and try it out so I can get over that idea and search for another pram!
