    Yes that makes more sense lol trust me to get it the wrong way around lol

    I searched on Matalans site and they have a pack of 2 for £10 which is good, I cant find any on tesco website, obv mothercare will have some but they will be dearer

    We arent going till after lunch now, the measrung thing on matalan site confuses me lol so I need to figure that out lol

    If I get a cup bigger will I be able to wear them now still? (just I need new bras desperatly lol) or should I just get another cheapy one that fits for now? (bean is due in 9 days)


    If you try them on and see how they feel. I ended up getting a G cup nursing bra which is my normal size, because once it was on it fitted fine, and had plenty of room too, as I said some are really stretchy. Hopefully Som will be on soon with better advice than me :D

    BSM - Both TKmax and Toys R Us have some good bargains, but depends what your after, I love the paul frank stuff in TKmax atm :D

    CAFC - was about to say sounds like maybe an infection, hope you get an emergency appointment soon xx

    Kindof - fernlie was right pretty much, usually you get the back size down from what ever you are currently measuring but wear it on the loosest setting. The cup size maybe either one or two up from what your measuring so that you have room to expand when your milk comes in. The rule of thumb with sleep bras is just to go for your normal size but if your boobs are bigger than average then you may need a size up (I did). Anyhoo, deffinatley spend time trying them on and hopefully you'll get some one who has lots of experiance and knows the stock well, as different styles come up differently. I like those sleep bras and am wearing something similar atm tho non nursing and tres comfy. Tesco do Nursing bras have only seen plain white and they only go up to 38E so again would need to try 'em but at £4 thay are a bargain.

    Woohoo, actually had a reasonable nights sleep as OH didnt snore once :D (well not loud enough to wake me anyhoo). Wonder if it had to do with him being tres happy about his new ipod ( really want one now too, but just cant warrant it when theres nothing wrong with my old one, which I mainly use for work and wont be back at till next jan!). OH wants to go into town to get me B'day card and Mothers day card, cant decide if I do or dont want to. There is a matalan so I could get some more nursing bras that would be a bonus, oh descisions!

    Travel systems!

    You are all aware babies under 6 weeks should not be in car seats for more than 45 minutes at a time as it puts pressure on the diaphragm and throat and they are at risk from stopping breathing??

    bras

    Mothercare sizes are smaller and do not correspond with any other make.. you need to go in pick up 2 cup sizes bigger than normal and try them on.

    Oh mine have been bad snice like 12 weeks lol they pour lol, I am ok with it though they dont hurt or anything so thats ok lol

    Thanks Som :) well that rules me out of tesco cos I am already in a 42DD and I think thats too small lol :)

    Pleased to hear the sleep ones are comfy, cos I need to wear them for bed cos of leakage so I am forever washing bras at the minute lol

    Go into town if your legs can handle it :)

    I am dying to go shopping and I hate shopping lol just cos I have been stuck in the house for a week lol, hoping to go for a carvery after but its usually really busy

    yup pigpen I knew that about car seats, didnt quite think it was 45 mins but knew baby shouldnt be in it long, babybean probs wont use his much seenig as I am off work for a year nearly and I dont drive lol so he will be in his pram, only time he will be in the car seat is if we go out somewhere on a weekend with him.

    pigpen - I work for mothercare, if only it were that easy, all the styles are different so some you dont even need to change cup size! Like me. The only way is to try them on. Ive found lots of places are the same, it really comes down to style! As for travel systems that goes even when there over 6 weeks, and its more about when there slumped it restricts their lil lungs and over long periods of use and consistent use can starve them of oxygen and we all know what happens when the brain is starved of oxygen!! Its also not great for their spines, thats why I have a car seat that purposley doesnt fit my pushchair so I cant be tempted to over use it.
