    Yay for no more work kindof! I got a moses basket bundle from toys r us for £14.99. It has two fitted sheets, two flat sheets and two cellular blankets. My mattress is a tiny bit smaller than yours and the fitted sheets are too big for it (think they're crib size really as it's a bale for moses baskets and cribs) but I'm just going to pull the tight underneath and pin them if needs be. Once the mattress is down they seem fine tho.

    Ohhh that sounds like a good deal, but unfortuntaly we are skint lol and we had £55 worth of mothercare vouchers, and £25 of Ikea ones

    Yeah Karen eek lol, I bet it was great hearing Tegan chuckling

    Ohhhhhh good tip Gill I need more RLT so I am going to get some more, I have stopped taking the EPO and Calcium I got scared after a few of the MWs on here said not to take them

    Twinkles thanks for that, it helps, OH used to smoke it all day every day as well, never in the house though, I guess I was just really scared that he was going to get back into smoking it full time again

    Som I know YAY for finishing work, it feels great right now, ohhhhhh £4 for a nursing bra is really good were they the ones where you unclip the cup?

    (((hugs))) CAFC sorry it was a bad night last night

    congrats IHeartFreebies :) and welcome to Ellanor xxx

    Nikkit sorry to hear little man is being a little bit awkward MASSIVE LABOUR VIBES to you xxx

    CAFC good luck at the house viewing xxx

    Smartie at 9 weeks I think I was showing, deffo keep posting here too lol

    How you planning on feeding SJ? I think it will be easier personally for me if babybean is in our room as I plan on BF, I think SIDS is the only reason "they" say though

    Thanks for that site Nikkit I couldnt remember whree it was, good luck I hope this is it

    Well I had a !!!! sleep last night, I was awake every hour, sometimes half an hour for a wee, it hurt so much to turn over and get out of bed, I could hardly walk to the loo

    Does anyone else get that? I dont know if its normal its like really bad pevlic pain and then I dont know if its cos beany is leaning on a the full bladder as well that makes it worse?

    So I had to get up at half 8 this morning, I was well wrecked!

    We went over to my brothers house to help him shift rubbish from his garden (well I watched lol) so we were there for hours

    Then we went to mothercare to spend the vouchers we got from work and we got
    2 x cellular blankets for moses basket
    2 x flanelette sheets for cotbed
    A couple of items of clothes that were in 50p bin!
    And a Gro egg themometor which we love, it curretnyl says my sitting room is freezing though lol it says its 14 degrees which is too cold lol

    Then we went to Ikea and we got
    2 x sleeping bags
    A frog teddy

    So we now have everthing for beany (I think lol)

    I fell asleep in the car on the way home, cos I was totally wrecked, OH has gone to his friends *rolls eyes* to see his computer figure or something, then he is going to bring something in for tea but I dontknow what I want, I am soooooooo tired and sore lol

    Kindof - ooh busy day, I'm a nightmare in Ikea just want to buy everything lol. The nursing bras are drop cup, yes :D I get the pelvic and hip pain in the night but put that down to SPD its certainly getting worse the bigger I/bubs get! I think am gonna try using the epo for perineal massage save wasting it and may take the calcium once I go into labour along with arnica.

    Nikkit - hope you can get some rest just incase LO does put in an appearance soon :D

    SJ - we only have a one bed so atm no where for baby girl to go until we move, but would keep her in our room anyway as plan on BFing and think I would be up checking on her ever 5 minutes anyhoo. Was just saying to OH the otherday not sure how Im ever gonna get anything done when when she is here cos will just want to watch her all the time.

    maureen - sorry just realise my earlier iron posted sounded really patronising! Sounds like your aiming the right way with the other stuff tho, I love broccoli too.

    Decided to make triple choc chip cookies in the end as had all the ingredients except for butter so as I had to pop to Tesco for loo roll and tea bags, killed 2 birds with one stone :D OH is now doing car boot yeay :D Oh and he is taking me for chinease later, only cheapie buffet but saves me cooking :D

    I'm planning on BF but have my nice freecycle glider chair in the nursery so happy to sit in there to feed I think.

    :drool: @ triple choc cookies!!!

    I've been deciding today that after paying DH's tax bill this month and have to pay off the rest of our new bed by start April I think we are going to be a bit short on cash for the next few weeks. So, I am planning on all our dinners this week out of stuff we already have in the cupboard and freezer. It can definitely be done but we might be having some random things to use stuff up!!

    Saying that though we are at sister's tomorrow for dinner and my mum's on Monday so really not too bad at all.

    I want to make my cheese and ham bread tomorrow again, I've got everything in for it and it was soooooo good last time!

    Oooh SJ I want some cheese and ham bread. Cookies are nommy just had 2, only cooked off half the mix and popped the other half in the fridge so can have another batch of fresh cookies later hehe, I would freeze it but dont think the 10 cookies that are left will last long!

    Can you post the recipe please Som?! Might make some tomorrow!!

    I'll swap it for my bread recipe if you like? It's a no-knead and no need to leave to rise recipe and quite easy to make. I don't have the patience for bread normally!

    SJ recipe is nice and easy... 140g of butter and 150g of sugar creamed together, add 1 egg and 1/2 teaspoon of vanilla and mix all together. Then sieve in 200g s/r flour and 1 teaspoon of baking powder and mix well. I then add 100g of each choc chip, plain, milk and white and again mix well. thats it just need to drop onto a greased baking tray and cook for approx 10-12 min at 180, may need to adjust depending on your oven mine is fan assisted so gets hot and cooks quick. Oh the cookeis nearly double in size so leave plenty of speace around each one. There simple but yummy when fresh :)
