Can you post details Sami, please

it was consumerpulse, its too late now - sorry they asked me to refer 5 friends so I offered the spots out on here as only my sis in RL was interested, you can send them your details;
Please note at present it is not possible to ask to join the panel, the panel is by invite only, and invites cannot be requested. Also we do not allow any referrals.(weird they say that because they do just not often!)

If you do wish to register your interest in helping with this or other research projects, you can do so here

Tea is going to be late as hubby is having to work a bit later, and I did have a decent sized brunch at about 11.30am and have had some crisps and chocolate since I got home So craving a cheese and bean toastie - it's ridiculous!

Money saving help required please

I've done a shop on Tesco, using a £10 off code. But now my basket is up to £100 so do you think i could put half into my other account and order? Or would that be well dodgy? lol.

How long between deliveries would you wait? Couldn't really book them for same day could i Delivery is £3 so would still be saving £7 if i did that.

You can definitely do that, and even have them delivered at the same time. When i used to do this, I would tell the driver that one set of shopping was for my mum and I acted like I had to make sure the bags didnt get mixed up lol. That was in the days when there was 1000 points per order. I used to have 2 deliveries x 5 times a week. I mostly ordered baby wipes and nappies when they were on offer and then sell them.

In the December email it said they had Loolas to send out but no such luck:rolleyes: Although I'd probably need to fend Tia off with a stick if she knew I had a loola 'surplus to requirements'

Hey ladies just wanted to pop in again to say I will be joining you soon! I'm currently 35+2 with my first and very excited about becoming a mum!!

I have everything ready now just about, waiting on delivery of nursery furniture (coming next Thursday) but have everything I actually need before baby arrives. Planning a home birth too and I'm actually quite looking forward to the birth itself - dunno if I think that's a bit weird though!

Have been lurking on here on and off and nice to hear from ladies who I recognise from pg thread.

Anyway, hello! :hello:

Hello!! I'm in Leeds too, if you need anything just shout!

Hey everybody look, someone from Leeds, I need be jealous of your minimeets no longer!

Squishy – was just trying to remember the difference in ages between Elena and Holly. Holly is not showing any sign of wanting to move when she is on the floor but has pushed herself up the changing for ages. I don’t think she likes being on the floor. She is bored in her playgym after about 5 mins and wants up! She is better at pushing up on her tummy than she used to be, but hates it too!
I was not trying to worry you about baby rice btw. I am just surprised as I have not heard anyone being told to start it early. It seems that it’s usually the other way about!

Csh – thanks for the offer to convert them but I have a conversion tool saved in my favourites so will do it later. Off to parents for dinner shortly though. Are you on Feely’s weight table graph thing? I will update that later too.

One other point BC, if ordering off tesco to use the £10 code you must spend £50, but say for example you had £50 worth of BOGOF, and made the total came to £25, the £10 code will still work.

Jillie- I just had a follow up email that said this:

I must admit during December a lot of our clients were dealing with the Christmas rush, so products were not being dispatched as regularly as normal. However, almost everyone is back to normal now and we have a lot of products coming through so you will be allocated something soon.

Happy New Year and we will be in touch soon regarding first product to review.

Elena was bouncing herself up the changing mat for a few weeks: it's only really this last week that she is pushing herself right off it onto the floor and shuffling around (though might have done so earlier if we had let her: she was on a cot changer mat and has now been moved to changing on the floor). Only when lying on her back, though if you put her on her tummy and hold her feet she will inch herself forward a bit. She is very good at holding her head up and making the crawling movements when on her tummy, just waiting for her to get the hang of pushing herself up enough to crawl.

Though - proud mummy moment - she was trying to raise her upper body from her beanbag earlier, and if you sit her up and hold her hands she will sit up
