    :T HALELLUJAH!! :T 3 days later and countless phone calls to various parts of the world, DH and I FINALLY have our damn plane tickets to the USA...we're flying on Friday so I was starting to panic as we're already borrowing my dad's credit card to pay for them...sorry, I'm just really happy as obviously screw-ups with the airline were the last thing we needed when all I want to do is go home to be my family right now...

    (sorry, go back to your discussion...I just had to post my happiness)

    And the Wardrobe
    http://www.ikea.com/gb/en/catalog/products/20108636

    I found the mattress I want as well but thats not exciting to post about lol

    I understand I am totally being early here looking at this lol but I like to plan :)

    How soon did you all buy your nursery furniture, I have held off buying anything till after 12 week scan, but wondered when you all bought big items?

    I suppose it would make sense to wait for nursery furniture and pram etc till we've actually sorted the room out and painted it?

    What is everyone's nursery colour scheme?

    Re IKEA wardrobes - Kindof yes they do. As far as I remember when we got ours just over a year ago they did 2 or 3 door ones. Ours is the 3 door but it's very big!

    Dooley - wow congratulations! They were so tiny - glad you are all home safe and sound now though - have you chosen names?

    Hi LittleBit :wave:

    Always - Good luck with the offer !

    Beenie hope your sister's cat comes home soon.

    Aless - really glad you've finally got your tickets, like you say missing tickets is the last thing you need :rolleyes:

    So, had my scan!! Yey! Tic Tac was chilling out lying with one hand up by his head and the other down by his side! Was great to see the hearbeat and see all 4 limbs!

    Will try and post a pic in a minute (I'll try to make it a sbit smaller than last time too!)

    Sj - awww, great you got your scan!

    I'm so jealous of you all and your nurseries...we live in a furnished rented flat so the only stuff we get to buy is baby-specific things like cot/changing table. No painting or cute wallpaper or anything, though I'll prolly be tempted into some sort of removeable nursery border, hehe.

    *pops in from lurking/TTC thread*

    Hi ladies :)

    I was hoping for a bit of help. Have just got back from seeing my friend who is due next Monday and I've said I'd pick up some RLT for her. I know you've talked about it before but how often and how much should she have??

    And what other goodies can I get her to help with getting things moving??;)

    She's doesn't want to stick anything up her foof!!:o:rotfl:

    As for the nursery we have bought a few of the Zeddy and Parsnip bits from M&P's including the wallpaper border. We are in rented too but it's unfurnished and we have been given to decorate any way we want so long as it's tasteful!!

    No bother getting the scan - they were oblivious to the ones I'd already had so that was nice and stress free. I needed to loo so badly though! Went straight away after the scan and peed for ages, but then by the time We'd got half way to the hospital car park I needed to pee again so we have to come back inside into another building so I could go again! Then i went again as soon as I got home!!
