keep looking at parent facing pushchairs.... and just cant afford anything

Have you considered a wrap? (I don't know how much pushchairs are but I imagine pushchairs cost more and you can get them cheaper if you search around.) They also have an added bonus of keeping you both warm.

warmth is a bonus, but as terrible mummy as im about to sound... i physically struggle with his weight/size....I'm only short and fairly slim-ish.. and have a badly damaged knee, which got worse during pregnancy because of the extra weight.....which has since doubled plus some since he was born...
i've got a sling for him but he generally dislikes being "held in"....

not sure if any of that makes sense...:rotfl:

How much were you looking to spend CAFC?

Can you get ebaying to make some money?

literally have got nothing really spare. although i might be able to convince DH to part with maybe £120....

we pretty much cleared everything when we emigrated up north, im due some money soon, maybe about £30 or so quid toward the savings pot.... plus we could potentially sell the one we do have afterwards but need to buy a new one before i sell the old one iyswim...

Hi all hope your all doing good! been a mad few days here and i have been told i can get funding for Charlie to go to the outdoor nursery 2 days a week as long as he goes to the local nursery 3 days? have a meeting on wed to discuss it all.

Its my wedding anniversary tom and i dont know how to feel about it? I have been feeling awful all week on these new tablets and cant seem to get my head around it all i have also looked into moving away, bit of a quick decision but i dont feel this house has good memories and i feel the need to get away?

Anyway on good news Charlie has been using the toilet today and i plan a full weekend of it (fingers crossed x) we bought him new pants with tractors and cars but he only likes to put them on to take them off again?

Did the Stokke prizes arrive? what are they like? i eventually sold my footmuff and will be buying the matching one asap as its so cold here i bought the sheepskin and although its beautiful i feel she will need more?

how many searches have you done? if you've done more than about 10 leave it at least 30mins as it has probably decided you are a bot
you are more likely to win with searching common sites like 'facebook' or I won earlier with "how many clowns in a car" :rotfl: I just ask it silly Qu's I've got over 300SBs now, how about you?

I'm sure Beenie said you can get a jools for £100ish 2nd hand on ebay and that is parent facing too

What pram do you have now? are you going to sell it to make the cash up?

ETA - Chris wore vest, sleepsuit and fleecey sleepsuit from when he was standing up (and obv it was winter ) IMO sleeping bags aren't safe from when they are stepping about and its was blimming cold in his room. If it was a bit warm under those layers I'd remove the vest coz I'm not a fan of fleece on my skin so just assume the boys wouldn't either?

Aless you made me lol with the iphone comment He has already pretty much claimed my itouch . I'm way softer with him than I imagined I would be and he is far too trendy and techy in my pre-baby opinion.

It does make sense and you're not a terrible mummy.

And ive been trying to find anything for under £100 that can be delivered for ages now lol:o

Sami I've got 209. I need to finish off the profiles in the survey bit. I will try leaving it a bit, and come back. I tend to use it whenever I think "what else has he been in?" while I'm watching tv!
