I've just mention to OH "they stock the crib we want on Amazon.." - his blank look said it all! :rolleyes: Methinks we will be sitting down with some brochures and a pen tonight and putting some stars against what we like!

Having trouble getting going today.. no matter how much I eat, I'm still hungry and feeling sick with it Going to need to go to Asda soon as I'm in danger of emptying the cupboards!

What cot are you looking at?

Glad your feeling better Krystal. X

The ocean dark wood cotbed- expensive but as the little lady is sleeping in our room we wanted it to match our bed, plus we love it ! 20 week waiting list though! I'm sure OH could knock one up in 10 weeks! :rotfl:

Hope the link worked, not sure how to put them on here!

Sugar- the Stokke are nice. I saw one on Ebay this week and was having a good look at it. They can go into chairs too can't they?

Hmmmm actually what have I got...

Crib
Pram + carry cot + moses basket stand (and moses basket if it doesn't sell on the ad trader)
Bedding sheets and blankets plus 4 sleeping bags
Breast pump
Small microwave steriliser
Some bottles for expressing
2 bouncy chairs
Changing bag
Monitors
Newborn nappies (huggies and pampers need to get tesco own too)
Wipes etc all ready have for DS2
7 newborn vests
6 newborn sleepsuits
10 bibs
5 pairs of socks
Few hats, cardigans/jackets

I think I am only missing a car seat and cot (cot I will get after baby is born). 0-3months size plain vests and sleepsuits I will get if I reach 35 weeks, my mum is getting baby girl clothes and MIL is getting a steam steriliser.

Yes, and it's gorgeous. So convenient, and it's neutral enough that it'll fit the room regardless of how we decorate it. The bumper is really cool as well, it slips over the top rather than ties on.

I love the one you linked to. It's fabulous!

My grandmother passed away last week, and she left me a whole collection of handmade baby clothes with a note in dated February 2000 telling me she'd made them for me while her hands were still agile enough, wishing me congratulations on the pregnancy and hoping it's a girl. I sobbed into them for hours, but I'm so touched that she did it - aside from being upset that she never got to meet the baby, I was really sad that mine would be the only one of the whole brood of her kids, grandkids and greatgrandkids not to have a bonnet that she made to a pattern she invented herself. She now has two!

I also bought a Wednesday Addams black velvet dress for an 18 month old at a car boot sale today. I wasn't supposed to buy more clothes but it was 20p.

Does baby still need hats and cardigans if born in summer? That said, I suppose I am in England and we might not have any summer to speak of!

Suzywuzy - I am loving that Cotbed :heartpuls, DH was eyeing that one up in mamas and papas, but we decided to go for a cheaper one in the end.

Fidget - Congratulations and welcome to the pregnancy club :beer:
Hope everyone is having a good easter weekend. I have managed to get the nursery clean and tidy, vacuumed, dusted etc. And we have hung some pictures, Just doing all those little jobs that have been annoying me for ages! I might start doing the mountain of filing in the office, but I know that is going to take for ever!...Or I could eat an easter egg instead....hmmmm, choices!

Take care ladies and bumps :easter_os

Was just thinking about if I bought them too small and they didn't get used before baby grows.. Just won't spend too much!

Right, finally feeling alright.. off to the shops. Catch up later xx
