Me too! Have looked everywhere. Thinnest ones were in Primark, but still fleecy and white! And i am thinking that the hospital will be just too hot for fleece.

Right, am now thinking about this after pain bit. This is my second baby and i am told that they can be quite bad adn i'm a wimp. Don't remember having any with my first, but not sure if that was due to already being given pain relief, due to C-section. Can any one who had a sC-Section with their second child please advise if they got these quite bad. I am thinking i may need to get some co-codamol in for when i get home.
Will also ask on the parent thread. Thanks

Did you see the dressing gownI linked to for Glam here? "I'm liking this one". It looks nice and lightweight.

Gisi you sure you want a dark colour they will show up milk leaks and baby vomit worse than anything pastel shaded would ? Having said that i have a loively 3 piece set from mothercare that is black with a cream lace trim its so soft and comfy :-) x

My Pool has arrived yay Panic over, I'm a little dissapointed as its just plain blue and doesnt have the pretty fishies all over it like my last one but hey ho at least i have it. I also got my hypno music CD its very relaxing just hope it doesnt send me to sleep lol :-) x

hi guys

just a quick note before i read back through the prev posts

things went ok at hospital. saw yet another dr!!!
explained my history re BP again....
so have to see midwife twice a week for BP and urine checks and back to hospital in 2 weeks for my 38 week appointment

said at the moment they are happy for me to have a 'normal' birth and will only need to do a c-section in emergency ie my BP goes through roof or they need to get baby out quickly. no plans as yet for induction as my BP can raise suddenly. asked when i need to call delivery suite as with my BP if i panic or work myself up it will rise so the dr said to call delivery suite when i start labour(contractions) and they will advise. it may mean going in early or they maybe happy for a mw to call to house first.

so somewhat sorted. and best of all i'm at home!! just need to rest and take things easy

Arghhhhhhh

Been trying to sort oout my bedroom all morning and put some of this baby stuff that i got off freecycle away so that i can actually move in my house, was doing really well and have suddenly come over all emotional for no reason and im sat here balling my eyes out

Nancat i get paid as per normal to just at the adjusted rate for mat leave. cant understand why they want to pay you like that most companys want to hold on to the money for as long as possible before they have to pay you. hope you get it sorted anyway :-) x

Just seen the baby grow pics they are soooooooooooooo CUTE!!! sorry cant remember who posted them now think it was gisi :-) x

Quick freecylce question do you just wait for messages to come through to your email or is there somewhere you can go to see all listings?

You can go to the main group to see all the listings, or if you have your email notification set up to recieve emails as they come through you will get them as they come, i would advise you to do the latter the quicker you apply for things the more likely you are to get them

Also remember your pleases and thank yous and give a reason as to why you want the item, and let them know when you are available to collect.

I know a lot of people that dont like others giving phone numbers in your initial email and i know some people delete these requests if they contain a phone number as they find it abit rude

When i usually apply for things it usually goes along the lines of:

Hi X,

I would be really interested in item X if you still have it available. My baby is due on xmas day as you can imagine the most expensive time of the year already so im trying to keep the cost down as much as possible. If you would please consider me for this item i would really appreciate it. I can collect at a time to suit you. Many Thanks.

Kind Regards
PrincessPlaty

That way seems to have worked well for me so far
