Baby Pennies........

Good morning/day/evening!

This is baby pennies blog.

The penny in question is roughly about 4 weeks gestation, due valentines day!

A bit of low down about the parents, we are both unemployed and have been for 6 months so it is going to be a very tight squeeze.

Hope you enjoy reading and I will be updating daily.

Well this week has been quite eventful, had a scan and Im 2 days behind what i thought so 8 weeks today! :j

Have been tempting fate rather a lot by getting the 'big stuff'

I have a very nice hauck infinity, from pre-loved for £30 its near perfect condition with sheets for the carry cot. The lady just happened to be the same person giving away some white baby clothes on freecycle that i asked for the previous day, she threw in some extra's too.

I have a large bundle of 0-3 vests etc etc, 50 items all together for £6

Crib was £5 from ebay (the joys of sellers not offering postage)

Have turfed ds out of his cotbed already, so he gets used to a big bed (he's 4 so dont feel sorry for him :rotfl:)

I am continually scouring ebay (select newly listed and buy it now option, great for nappies, found a set of 20 size 1 flexitots, 5 wraps and a whole load of fleece liners all new for £30) I have amassed more nappies of various sizes which I dyed.

Maternity jeans in my local oxfam are £1.50, have a very nice underbump bootleg topshop pair now, i dont need them yet but they were a bargain.

Carseat was another great find, maxicosi cabriofix (bought in december last year, the seller had the receipt in the little compartment bit at the back) AND the easyfix base all for £28

Yes i know its only 8 weeks and if the worst happens there is plenty of room in the loft:D
