    Why don't you give one a try before you buy more, and the baby has to be a certain weight first. I only ever had one of each size as they could wash and tumble dry in a couple of hours. I only used mine at night. After having 5 babies I kind of worked out that you do not need everything you are told to buy and if you wanted to you could go on forever and spend a lot of money. Quite apart from needing an extension to put it all in!

    Work tomorrow, night all. X
    Too many children, too little time!!!
    :p

    I had trouble yesterday - couldn't stand up straight cos I had a bad pain in my side, like cramp, on my waist where my bump hasn't reached yet. Got it when I first woke up then again in the evening when I got up from the sofa :(

    Icecream might help ;)

    Tine, I only needed one baby sleeping bag with Aimee... Like tara said, they wash and dry pretty quickly...

    Elle, I used to wrap a blanket round Aimee so she was sleeping on the join, they don't move much when they're tiny so they don't tend to come unwrapped... I also used to use the blankets to drag her out of the moses basket and into bed with me when she needed feeding... Saved having to actually get up lol...

    I got my first lot of proper cramp in my legs last night... Had feelings of cramp before but managed to stop it by flexing my foot... Last night I tried it but before I could get rid of the cramp in one side it came on really strong in the other... I ended up jumping out of bed!

    Couple of hours after that I had to get up for the toilet and I could barely walk, my hips had seized right up... I'm worried... If it's that bad now... How bad is it going to be in 9 weeks time?! Feel like I haven't slept in a fortnight because lying still kills my hips and rolling over kills my back... Its a lose lose situation...

    Where's FG hiding?

    I just remembered - wasn't it Friday FG went to visit her nan? She was going to take PJs in case she didn't fancy getting the train back that night. Was going to a Leebruss pram stockist too to check out the spotty prams :D

    OH is laughing at me.. He's just come in to find me lying on the sofa with a bendy bright blue ice pack on my head :(

    I've just felt a really weird thing too. Was pressing down on my bump (aka "tormenting the baby" ;)) and I just felt a limb glide across my hand! :eek: :D

    Ooh, Elle, I poked my bump in the other day and felt it move it's leg out of the way! Wierd isn't it!

    Hey, has anyone seen the new fish finger advert? I practically wet myself laughing!

    Anyhoo... Off now... Gonna go and spend another night not sleeping...
