I have a huge list of stuff to do but it is all boring stuff so it keeps getting left With the first one it is exciting as you get to buy lot's of lovely baby stuff, but this time round we have everything we need, so I just have to go shopping for boring stuff like breast pads, maternity pads, etc blah blah!!

ETA: Also have decorating to do in hallway and bathroom but will have to wait until we have some spare cash for paint to match the wallpaper I got. It is cath kidston style roses on light blue background (so obviously just going on one wall as it would be a bit lairy on all ) It is lush and best of all was £2 for 6 rolls! Bargain!!!

Try getting to number 9 and having to buy EVERYTHING again!! :eek:

My bathroom just needs emptying of junk and a good scrubbing!!.. And the hole in the wall fixing!

Argos do some good deals on mattress, quite often half price - got a silentnight pillow topped double for £115 inc del which I though was good

CAFC poundland have some good deals on padded envelopes if you have one nearby ( I quite often use a good quality shopping bag, like next etc if the items isn't breakable & had no complaints yet ) + I also recycle all envelopes of things I buy and ask family for there used padded envelopes saves a fortune

Isn't it funny how no-one seems to be using the HIP Grant for healthy food etc ( I'm being greedy and using mine for a spa day as I have a big birthday this year and will be the size of a whale )

MLSL - I think you and I are the same person the past few days LOL Thats exactly where I plan on going, for my pots and envelopes! Was checking their website last night and they look like they should have some nice stuff in.

And surely a spa day is covered as "health in pregnancy"??????

I am using mine for new guttering out the back... *shame*

I didn't realise poundland had a website, handy for a nosey

I buy healthy food anyway!

The mattresses are from ebay, we can get memory foam ones for under £80 each.

My mattress is a memory foam one from ebay and its great :rotfl: DD3 especially loves my bed so she will be happy.

DD1 already has an orthapedic mattress that came with her bed (which was £80 from barnados :eek:) so we'll all be sorted then.

Please read the mattress threads before you even consider buying a mattress from Argos. And especially from any member of the Silentnight group (which includes Rest Assured, Sealy, Layezee, and The Pocket Sprung Bed Company).

Kitkat _ I know how you feel, It's a bit of a long story but my work is up for sale ( part of a massive company ) looks like massive job losses, we just bought our house before Xmas, but you can't worry about something that hasn't happened yet otherwise you'd never stop worrying. Thank god we have a half decent benefit system in the UK ( in comparison to some less well off countries )

Just hope OH keeps his job otherwise I am better off quiting my job as we would be better off on benefits which to me makes no sense! I am sorry to hear about your work, my work is dependant on funding and atm we hav enough funding to take us to xmas, so i probably wont even have a job to come back to!

Morning ladies - it's been nice and active on here this morning

Redstar - Congratulations Couldn't see your pics unfortunately so have added you as a friend on fb if you don't mind

I've just got back from a parentcraft class which was ok but I find I know most of what they're telling me from coming on here and my own research!

I would like to do the pain mangament ones, that prepare you for the birth etc

I know I've already had three but my experiences in the labour ward were quite traumatic and I'd like things to be a bit more relaxed this time!
