    lou - I've got it. It's okay, but seems to be marketed towards very fashion-savvy city women who started off as a size 10 and B-cup boobs* :rolleyes:. Fine if you're that, but a lot of her 'truths' become irrelevant if you're not! I would say that I already knew most of the stuff she writes about and the rest I've heard about since on MSE pregnancy thread ;)!

    Good for a chuckle, but kinda useless on the the advice front. Or maybe I'm just cynical...Also, it was written a good 10+ years ago, so things HAVE changed since then.

    (* not ALL of us are happy with the larger breasts pregnancy brings)

    For those that are on a really tight budget - like me:o but want to use the new innovations with the old terries and dont want to use the mothercare budget set which includes plastic pants - on a small baby i have found these. Old terries with new style wraps and nappy fastenings. I originally wanted tots bots and then terries with motherease wrikki (sp.) wraps but couldnt afford them - even 2nd hand. I dont know about how leak proof these are but we dont mind so much about that as bean will be in disposables for the first couple of weeks.

    jha - so the terry is the bit that goes inside the wrap, right? I see you've bought 8 wraps & 12 nappies...seems like a great price for wraps + liners + terries. Is that a normal number for a newborn? And where did you find those prices? Thanks! :D

    (so clueless, but trying to learn all the vocab here!)

    You get a terry nappy and fold it to put it on as a nappy and put a liner in, fix with the nippa and then cover with the wrap - i think:p

    Sorry hubby just leaving to tutor - i am going with 4 small wraps and 4 medium size to take from a couple of weeks to 23lbs (approx). Loads of mums have more than that but i wash every day - i was also impressed by the nappy pail which is a big 16 ltr one:D

    oooo by the way 10 weeks today - yay

    I like Zac (It is on my long list of names too!) and think Zoe and Zac together is cute - however I am the woman who has considered naming the baby Millie to go with the dogs name of Molly :o.

    We have, at long last, got our long list of baby names down to 2 boys and 2 girls now though.


    My mum had Molly dog, I named my daughter Milly and then mum got another dog - MAisie.

    Grrrrrrr i've just been to Asda to pick up my "Mum to be" bounty pack and all of the money off coupons expire on 30th June :mad::mad::mad::mad:

    I would have used almost all of them if they didn't expire til i'd put some money aside or got HiPG but as it is, i won't have any money between now and then so i can't use them.

    Thanks for that glad i only paid just under 3 pound for it as i most definitely not a fashion savvy city woman. !!!! I live in south London and am a Manager of a dental surgery. However i have gone up a dress size but as said thats from giving up smoking.
    Darling son born 10/12/09 hopefully the 1st of many :j
