Congratulations Rosetinted and huge welcome to Sophie!!!! :j

choccybikkie_2

Congrats Rose tinted :j Good name!!! (dd2's name:p)

Wow Jops that is some haul you have there:T

14th on the list:eek: how did that happen???

Woke up at 5.10am (best nights sleep in ages:() tried to go back to sleep but DH was breathing so heavily (not quite snoring otherwise I would've whacked him) and I couldn't lay down anymore cos hips were hurting so I sat in middle of bed like an idiot for about an hour thinking of things I need to get for baby/me/hosp bag then thought 'why am I sat here doing this???'. Doesn't feel too bad knowing we've lost an hour seeing as I'm up now:rotfl:

Ds's 9th bday yesterday and we had a fab day, we went to aeriel extreme (I didn't go on) It's a bit like GO APE! High wire obstacle course. Kids (6,9 and 11) and DH were SO brave they even did a jump (with safety harness) out of a tree house at 43ft!!!:eek:

kids have 2 parties to go to today including the 6 yr old to a swimming pool party later- WHY??? So DH is going to take her to that one:D

Mo and Jopsey Labour vibes for you x

Redstar stay put vibes for you x

Everyone have a good day! x

Congratulations Rosetinted enjoy your mommy cuddles and welcome to the world Sophie :-)

congrats rosetinted

fernieleebee - that's amazing. My council don't help with nappies at all, and the lady at work isn't allowed to give me a voucher as I don't live in the borough . I have emailed my council to ask what kind of support they will give me to use reusables and have found a local nappy group. I might post a wanted on freecycle & netmums for reusables nappies, really don't want to shell out for a whole new set.

Jopsey - you've done amazingly!

I am going to work on dh again today about the 2nd hand pram!

redstararnie76

Morning everyone, Hope you and your bumps are all well?
Congratulations Rosetinted and welcome to the world, Sophie!
Jopsey - you've done really well by the looks of it!

LaDiva_2

Congrats ladies!! Can I join in the fun (whoop-I qualify!).

Gillby1

Hi all! Hope everyone's well.

Re nappies - i got a full set of Bambino Mio nappies and covers for £10 via netmums (and a brill changing table for £20!), so it's well worth posting in the Wanted section. Not sure how i'll get on with them, but i'm certainly happy to try.

Out of interest, does anyone know whether reusables tend to wash better if you dry pail or wet pail? And can you use nappysan on all brands of reusables? I know the Bambino Mio site sell their own nappy wash, but i assume it's not compulsory!:o

First day of offical maternity leave tomorrow. It's going to feel very odd waving OH off to work! Have my 36 midwife appointment, so that'll get me out of the house, and hopefully i'll find out whether the baby has turned head down. Fingers crossed!:think:

The demo thing I went to the other day says dry pailing is best, just to get a bucket with lid (with a liner if you like but don't need to) and wash at 60 when full with normal non bio. I think that wet pailing can spoil the elastic and modern washers are so much better than in the old days!

I have posted a wanted on my 2 local netmums groups.
