Sending vibes honeypop! 17 more days for me - could I have them back when you've finished with them?!

Not up to much today. DH called home from work earlier for his breakfast. My neighbour texted me when she saw the lorry outside, she thought things had started!

Just remembered I still haven't got a baby bath. I know they're not essential but it would use less water than using the ordinary bath.

Could really do with some chocolate but only got Rocky bars! Just waiting to watch Bear Grylls on Loose Women - he's done some seriously gross stuff.

Hi all..

Beenie, thankyou heaps for those links last night, and thankyou too to everyone for your festival basket suggestions

Rhys is doing well this morning. Spent 3.5hrs off CPAP, most of which without any extra oxygen at all - I got a cuddle with no wires and tubes still attached Nothing much going on with him today, no big tests or scans, just chilling out today

I'm going out with Mum in a bit. She's going to ours to "have a word" with the builder and get him hurry up and stop slacking! She was heading there at 10am but then the thunder and lightning started and the dog went nuts so she had to stay to calm the dog down! We're going shopping for kitchen and bathroom flooring, plus internal doors for the house

Hope everyone's having a good day xx

Happy due date honeypop!

elle - so pleased that Rhys is going from strength to strength!

Hope everyone is well. I am one happy bunny this morning as I recieved 2 big bars of organic chocolate to try and vouchers for Bzz agents campaign. (If anyone is interested in signing up there is a thread on the freebie board HERE) You get to try new products if you spread "the Bzz" with family and friends. So I am happily munching on some now as it is "Gert lush" as we say round these parts!!

Glad Rhys is doing so well, elle. It must be lovely to have a 'normal' cuddle xx

Argg im getting stressed about choosing a buggy/pram system.. did like the bebe confort streety one good price and fits in car.. but I really want a joolz i think, not sure, argg I just dont want to spend a fortune.. also looking at bugaboos on e-bay, are they worth it?

nanc - it's such a minefield! I'm terrified of choosing, mostly b/c we have a very limited budget and everyone seems to think the nicest ones are the most expensive :rolleyes:

HypnoNu

nancmat, we really liked the Joolz till we went to see one in the flesh, when we were wheeling it round it just didn't feel as sturdy as other buggys we'd tried, it also only fitsa the Mamas and Papas Prima Viaggio carseat which has really bad reviews with mums saying that it's too upright and the babies head falls forward, we loved the Bugaboo but it was a bit out of our budget, but i do think it's a great buggy.

We finally went for the Quinny Buzz 4 which'll arrive on Saturday!

nancmat

yeah I dont want to spend a fortune.., but would like a travel system with everything but not a huge bulky buggy/pram.. just noticed the stokke ones as well, v space agey not sure on that.. need to think seriously, we went to a 2nd hand bugaboo frog, but it was v old, and v faded and they wanted £160 for it, which if you saw it would agree it was a lot..

Hypnonu, I get rib pain on my right side, getting on all fours seems to help a bit and if you look down the bottom of this page, these help too...

I went to get DH up just before 10 and woke up 3 hours later

I loved the Stokke Xplory, and part of me is still lusting over them but it was waaay too expensive....oh well!
