    I have to say I'm so happy we have already got our pram and travel system :) I'm still chuffed with it too so now we just need the baby to go with it :rotfl: It's just sat taking up room in the nursery at the moment but is all ready to go!
    I don't think I could be doing with dashing round at the moment looking at prams and buggies :confused:

    Morning ladies:wave:

    Well I got my mamoth shopping trip done yesterday and I had so much FUN !!!!:T

    Me and my mum and my DD went and spent a fortune.

    I go the nursery kitted out in Alfie Giraffe
    http://www.littlewoods.com/rf/p.do/alfie-quilt-and-bumper?Ntx=mode+matchallpartial&SNtt=Alfie&groupId=410890494&Nu=this_product&SNtk=littlewoods_search&Np=1&SN=85+103&Ntt=410890494&D=410890494&Ntk=group_search&Dx=mode%2bmatchall&thisprod=410890494&N=85+103&Nty=1&Mis_item_id=15&Mis_item_loc_id=1&product=410890494

    All I got was the cot bumper, quilt, sheets, fleece blanket, cot mobile, changing mat and a sleeping bag for 6 - 12 months !!!

    I thought it was too expensive, but as I really liked it my darling mummy paid fo half of it !!!

    I also got new mattresses for the cot and moses basket and my advent steraliser with 6 free bottles !!!

    My DD wanted to pick a teddy, so she has bought the baby one of those soother bears, the ones that are a bears head with a cloth body?? so she is all happy with herself that she bought babys first toy !!!!:D

    Now all I need to get is new cutains for the room, but as thats what my mum makes for a living, then I think that might be fairly easy !!!:p

    Any way, Happy birthday to ickle !!!

    Labour vibes to MFD and any one else who needs them !!!

    Have fun at the car boot today Mrs Moc, but dont feel you have to take him back, you are stronger than you think !!!

    I'm sure there was loads more to say but I cant remember !!!:rotfl:

    It is icecream time here - OH is working again and I'm lonely! Still got loads of jobs to do, but I always end up in alot of pain when I do any lifting, so don't know how I'm going to get prepared if I haven't got an OH to help! Oh well, icecream will have to do!

    Happy Birthday Ickle!!!!

    AM, hope you get it sorted hun, you're OH is being a right royal pain in the arrss! Who's gonna be pushing the baby around the most? You are, so you should get a pram you are happy with. Hope you can persuade him hun. That one you're looking at is virtually the same as the 3D isn't it ~ but £100 less, bargain!!


    Moneymaker, that quilt and bumper set is soooo sweet!

    I've gone for Lollipop Lane Fish & Chips : http://www.lollipoplane.co.uk/luxury/range_profile.php?collectionID=27

    I got it when I was about 12 weeks pregnant :o because it was such a bargain and I thought if I have a girl I'll just sell it on eBay lol! It only cost £25 delivered for the quilt, bumper, flat sheet, fleece blanket and a fitted sheet. Should have been £80! (They still sell on eBay for around £60-£70)
    Quite chuffed I was with that bargain! :D

    MFD, Sending you lots of labour vibes!! xxxxx

    AF - the MW is only coming to me because my normal MW is on holiday so it means I don't have to trek to another surgery to visit one.

    Sami - not sure I would call a sweep 'medical' :confused: I would say the taking your BP and checking your wee bit is much more medial that a rummage in your lady bits :rotfl:

    I reckon they are gonna be coming here after Bubba is born anyway so I best get used to them!
    But I'm sure you aren't ashamed of ur house like I am of mine either :p
    In my world if it requires a medical professional, gloves and me lay back legs akimbo then its medical :rotfl:
    How come they don't just send a diff MW to the surgery to cover all the appointments :confused: makes no sense to me!
    We have 2 MWs on 2 days coz its a huge surgery but even when I was at my old one with just 2.5 docs there was always a MW on wednesday morning
    Ps i was up before you but like a zombie after less than 6hrs so didn't come on here :D

    AM: you're gonna be a carseat expert by the time you're sorted!! It always makes me giggle when prams have cup holders:confused: even tho I could do with one coz I always end up with my starbucks all over myself when trying to handle cup and buggy! :doh:

    Tine - Could you have a word with my MIL who still thinks its too early to buy me the base for carseat :rolleyes::mad: I don't care that bubs won't be here for 3mths I want it now!!! *stomps foot folds arms*

    I hate my Husband right now! apparently I should have taken the P&T to my mums "out of the way" even though it was him that asked my mum if we could store it there and even said he would take it round about 3 weeks ago and didn't:mad: How the foof is a big fat pregnant me supposed to get the big heavy box in the car :confused: I can't even lift the thing!! I had to push it with my bum into the kitchen when we got it over a months ago when I was almost bumpless!! :mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad:
