    Good luck fidget - bubs probably just thinks its way way more warm and comfy in there, lol, you have given bub TOO nice a home, haha! Good luck and massive labour vibes to you hun! x

    Kindof - i am really warming to that travel set, would save us a fortune on the Buzz we want. It is deffinately with car seat right, i know that sounds stupid as its a travel set but you know have to ask? I need to test a hauck out to see what it is like but the MC's near us are tiny and a bit rubbish stock wise, may have to go back to Croydon and have a good look.How was the one you tested weight wise? I hope there will be one left on kiddicare for me if i like it.

    Yes it def comes with car seat, the weight of the one I tested was fine :)

    I have a dilemma now lol

    Its between the one I posted and this one:

    Well i've been looking for a car to get me through winter and have taken a risk and bought one that needs an MOT day after EDD :rotfl:

    Will i ever learn? :p
  • Wondered where you were at Beenie. Hope you have better luck with this car. You can get MoT done up to a month before new one is due and still keep a year's date from the due date IYSWIM! Dunno if that helps!

    How's your DS?

    Kindof your hospital may do a HB evening you could maybe go there, no obligation and just get some more info. Might persuade your OH that it's not as bad as he thinks?

  • I do like the second one - the only thing is with dd she would cry and i'd end up carrying her alot, meaning pushing the buggy about the shops with one hand while bubs is in arms. With the bar handle you can easily, with the seperate handles you really can't - it aches and is tough to push in a straight line. BUT if you are better than me and don't take the bubba out whenever they cry then you shouldn't have a prob, lol - i'm just too weak and gave in too much.

    The second one looks much nicer though, and i like the idea of the pram style option. I'm wondering if these will take a buggyboard though?

    I don't live in croydon anymore, it's a nightmare travelling back there but they do have the best mothercare :(

    Good luck fidget! <3

    I have found some relief from my morning (all day and night) sickness! I have been taking a homeopathic remedy and it is great. It seems to condense the sickness to just the morning and evening rather than all the time iyswim.

    I am so tired today, feel like I am about 100 lol! I am having a halloween party for all my DD little friends tomorrow, so have been organising that all day. I need to go to bed now though, as I still have things to do in the morning.

    Night all!

    Good luck fidget:)

    I have just found that the Maclaren XLR comes with a soft carrycot that can be inserted to make it like a pram style. I wonder if that would fit into the Techno (double)...that would be ideal, or even more ideal would be if they made one specifically for the double techno:rotfl:

    Unless someone like you cares a whole awful lot,
    Nothing is going to get better. It's not.

    I know the main difference between the techno and the xlr is that the xlr is a bit wider, so maybe worth checking but it is likely to be a bit wide. If it's soft though it may squeeze in!
