elle ive started baby fund £10 of tax creds goes in every week and when i get the HiPG money thats going in there as well... i plan to have about £300-£400 by the time im on ML and buy everything he needs before i go ... hand outs have done me well i got a free pushchair, clothes, changing mat, tin of milk ermmm some other things to i got bubs his bouncer already ... ermmm this month its blankets and bobs o and getting my hospital bag ready now i know im going for a HB but midwife said to pack one just incase and im so sure hes coming early that i need to do one just put my mind at ease ... is there anything im forgetting... o yer gonna sort out the cot but that after i find out if im getting the sure start grant or not x

Very good idea.. regular savings! Stupid thing is, I won't even notice it going out so I'm not going to miss it - I don't check my bank account often enough to know what's in there. I think it's just the actual moving the money from one account (where my salary goes) to another one (dedicated baby fund). Gonna set it up now whilst I remember..

We've got £240 in there now but it's been so long since I put anything in there I can't remember where that money came from! I think it might have been a few Quidco payouts and Lotto wins Going to add the £55 from Quidco (OH's car insurance) which I'm waiting on and the £190 HiPG when we get it. Hoping to sell the futon and furniture from our spare room for £100 soon - I know someone at work who's setting up home from scratch so I'm giving her first dibs Think I need to see what else I can change through Quidco.. :think: Time to do all those MSE things I keep reading about!

I felt guilty when DS started school as a July birthday they start at Xmas so are already well behind the others and the statistics the schools hold say they don't catch up until at least 10 or older. Can't believe I was silly enough to have another July baby but I have worked hard with DS and he is slowly catching up. Seems so unfair that they are expected to be the same for KS1 sats and he will only be 6.

elle set up a standing order i have one for bubs/ML and one for zoe for when she needs clothes, trainers and all that then it saves on ever worrying about it i need things for them 2 coz they're sorted just have to worry about yourself x

I wouldnt worry about it too much, my hubby was a July baby and he came first in the country in 1 of his GCSEs and is one of those annoyingly smart people at completely useless subjects !!!:rotfl:

Although all kids in the schools here start in September, only nursary classes stagger the start
