Right, i need to blame some of you for something
I have never been a prams person. Now after seeing all of the ones you have linked, i want an Icandy and/or a Joolz.
And i cant, because if we have another baby we will need a double pram! *wails*:D with the addition of the pip to turn the apple into the pear or the peach turns in to the peach blossom IIRC
If you get your close gap I don't recommend the P&T but if you have a larger gap you MUST get one
Caz - how did the powertwin work out? have you still got it? I really liked the look of it but I prob won't be able to wangle any new prams next time - boo hiss
Congrats Piggers!!

What hygeine reasons are they Gill? It has touched someone elses skin???
I know expressing is a private thing but it is only really the same as drinking out of the same cup as someone else! As long as you clean it I can't see the problem.

It has never been a problem putting him down in the day and him knowing it is naptime.
I assume E has lots of different clues to let him know it is nighttime kindof (bath, bottle, sleepsuit, story or whatever) so they just get the idea that it is for a short sleep.
Cool thanksI have been leaving E in his sleepsuits all day
lol so I might start putting him in clothes again lol
E is in a ratty mood today lol, and he's disovered a new game, lets throw the toy across the room and let mammy pick it up when I start crying and repeat*rolls eyes* lolDebt £30,823.48/£44,856.56 ~ 06/02/21 - 31.28% Paid OffMortgage (01/04/09 - 01/07/39)

hi sm, thanks for the info but - as I thought - uncle's funeral is to be on Thursday. Oh well, the next meet.
:mad: Just had an exasperating phone call with my brother - as he and his missus might have to travel separately to funeral / airport on consecutive days (they are on holiday from Friday) that's justification for not coming to funeral as it's a lot of travelling. Or at least that's what it sounded like to me! !!!!!!?! :mad: Rant over and back to the housework...0 -

I actually emailed her saying that I had a steriliser so there were no hygiene problems but she then admitted she didn't have it! It wasn't a problem as I knew mine would fit BUT the unmentioned lack of tubing is a big problem :mad::mad:Mummy to Thomas born April 27th 2010 8lb 5oz0 -

I just did a search on ebay and that was cheapest - I'll check that one out now
ETA it's £5.10 inc delivery so a bit cheaper and will come much quicker. I feel she should give me a partial refund to cover this as she specifically stated ALL accessories except funnel.Mummy to Thomas born April 27th 2010 8lb 5oz0 -

The powertwin is fantastic, it is very light to push and even Les will push it as he likes it! I cannot have the hood on the front as Charlie sees it as a game to remove it and hit people with it but its a small price to pay! the brake on the handle is great for going downhill as we have a huge hill on the school run and it helps to slow it down and saves your arms.
Im peeed off with Kiddicare, my Stokke was to arrive today and now they are saying it will be the 16th before it is dispatched:mad::mad::mad: they are also having problems finding my order as the order number includes the Stokke but as the accessories have been delivered under that number they cannot work it out?
I WANT MY PRAM *STAMPS FEET*:oWhat's for you won't go past you0 -
I know WM strange isn't it...what's even stranger is that it has arrived with a huuuuuge AIRMAIL stamp on the envolope???!!!!! Anyway it arrived safely (via wherever) and yes I would LOVE, LOVE the other bottle, if you are sure you won't be needing it
xx
OFF TO CHANGE ONE STINKY BUM, FEED THE OTHER AND THEN DRAG THE FAMILY OUT FOR A WALK...oooops soory k hit caps lock!!!Unless someone like you cares a whole awful lot,
Nothing is going to get better. It's not.0
