Just been going through the list someone (GFH? Sorry...baby brain!) posted, here's how I'm getting on:
Some of the stuff that isn't crossed out is being sent to me by a friend (breast pump, lots more clothes) but I don't want to cross them out before I get them in case she changes her mind and I forget to buy it!

that is my list :T:T:T
Glad to see I've been useful to the thread. Feel free to change the colours . I didn't want to committ to pink or blue

FS - sorry you're feeling down about the thread and life in general today. It does move very fast and if there's a spate of postings a question or comment can get buried quickly. Personally I only reply if I think I have something valuable (ha ha!) to say.

Btw I am trying not to be smug now about not having pregnancy-related woes as in the last few weeks I've been hit by piles, constipation, itchy skin and SPD so I'm not going to tempt fate by thinking I've escaped the stretchmarks - besides daunting thought it seems, I've still got a lot of stretching to do yet:eek:.

Is has been updated since then, when I keep thinking of things to add. I got my prices down too, then when I'm out and about (or skiving the baby websites in work and I see something cheaper I can make a note of it. *MSE ANGEL*

A friend of mine has just moved back with her parents because of getting a job near there. It's several hours drive away from here. So far this week I've had 20 e-mails, 5 FB messages and now a telephone call asking me if I'm ok because I haven't responded to any of the messages sent today. ermmmm.....I'm actually quite busy at work. I'm starting to feel really crowded by all of this which is making me not even read the messages now. I do feel a little bad, but at the same time it's stressing me out somewhat.

That is not a friend, they call that a STALKER :eek:

Going to join in the whinge fest...open eve so at work until 8pm at the very least. Have to spend the eve setting fire to stuff :j

I'm off on mat leave at 5 weeks, like fairy to fit in with term dates, but planning to toilet train a new puppy in that time :eek:
