thats fab. oh mum keeps saying ' we'' pay for this and that' but i'm a bit nervous about mentioning it. i may however take the page from the catalogue and when we see her next weekend show it and see what she says. i noticed on the website link that the price is there till 19 may. so fingers crossed i might be lucky!!

19th May is good - I was panicking that it would go off offer or go out of stock.

I suggested to MIL that she could buy something each week she went to Tesco or ASDA like a pack of wipes or nappies, or baby oil/bath stuff/shampoo etc. So that we have a stockpile once baby gets a bit older. This was last week.
She went straight out and bought a load of stuff in one go.
They gave us £25 towards the first lot of stuff we bought and now want to pay for everything we bought last week as well as the cot.
It's great and I am grateful but at the same time I feel awful that everytime I open my mouth about something they want to pay for it.

I really need to do some housework but I also want to rest - OH has banished me to sit in the conservatory and not move so that's what I'm doing for now but don't want to waste the day!

Searching do you have any other neighbours who you get on well with who are affected by this as well? Would they be prepared to go down the same route as you, just thinking the more compaints the council receives the more likely they will have to take quick action...

is it their first grandchild??
its my mil and fil 2nd grandchild buts its 9 years since their first. and i think if i remeber rightly that thye didnt have myuch involvement with any of the buying etc cos their SIL at the time was a bit of a nob!! i think this is why mil wants to help out. i do believe she has bought some stuff already but i havent been shown any of it. she did show DH a box set of things though.

i dont really speak to any of my other neighbours its more keep yourself to yourself... but its us who live directly below them and no one is above (i dont know if anyone live next to them) and next to us people come and go (council use it as a stop for people needing short time living arrangements) so its just us ... or more i should say me but OH is backing me up x

I feel like I am getting punched in the belly Just below my belly button. Like BH but just in that one spot. And I am stiff all over. All I'm doing the past few days is whinging, sorry.

it's wednesday at 3pm - OH said earlier "Good job u've got scan this week' after my fall. I'll tell u anyone would think I threw myself to the ground on purpose the way everyone bangs on about it!

I complained to Environmental Health about our old neighbours - they had 2 puppies that they locked in seperate rooms and then went to work for 12hrs. Poor things howled all day and night

Yep there first - I don't mind but everytime they come here they feel like they have to treat us and won't take no for an answer. Last time was mat clothes for me - I'm like the daughter they never had and we get on great but I feel like I'm taking from them.
It's worse because my parents aren't as giving as we are a larger family and my dad is always skint - so I always feel bad.

Right, I need to do something constructive now so going to log off and see what I can do without OH catching me!!

Jillie - just saw ur last post. Yes we are! Both fed up of seeing gorgeous things but not knowing which colour to buy!
