    We have a crib - thankfully!! The cot is a long story - bought one online (Ebay - Argos Clearance) someone on here posted a link, it was lovely and only £50, had been £179 in the catalogue. They had lots for sale, and everything looked great! A month after paying for it, and receiving an email saying that it would be delivered soon, I received a letter saying that it wouldn't be available until the end on November - no problem I thought. A week later I had a phone call to say that they didn't have any of the cots and would refund me:eek: I was pee'd off to say the least, have complained to Ebay because they are actually in breech of Ebay policy. So now have to find another cot, it took me ages to decide on that one!

    Ouchie.
    Ebay do worry me slightly on bigger purchases. Dont know why.
    im more of a seller than a buyer lol

  • Hi all,

    It has been over a month since I last posted and thought it was finally time to log on and update!

    My little girl was due on the 9th November but went into hospital to be induced on 27th October. Isobelle Grace was born 29th October by emergency c-section and weighed in at 5lb 11oz.

    She is now just over a month and is weighing 6lb 8oz and is doing incredibly well. Sleeps most of the day including the night which is great!

    I can definitely recommend Cambridge Addenbrookes/ Rosie Hospital as all the midwives were great as well as the care assistants.

    Hope everyone is doing well.

    Peaches :)

    Congratulations! What a beautiful name! Wow she really didn't want to come out did she?! :D

    Glad you have mummy cuddles and would love to see pics :)

    Hi all,

    I'd forgotten how difficult it was to keep up with this thread!

    Cloth nappies: I use babinex nappies with totsbot wraps which I really rate but if cost is an issue then may not be for you. My nappy lady did a demonstration in her house which I would recommend because you can get a feel for the ease of use as well as what would be good for you. I still email her if I have questions. Don't forget to claim your money from your council too.

    Hugs to those with crap time at work and those with OH's who are driving them crazy.

    I had my booking in MW appointment today which took 45 mins!! Thought they would have most of my details from last time- it was the same MW as last time and I think she recognised me a year on. DD was well behaved and played with urine sample pots(!) and kept clambering onto the weighing scales.

    I bought stuff from 24 weeks cause I was paranoid that something would happen and I wanted to pass the "viable" stage.

    I need to update the EDD list - anyone want me to add them? My due date is 7/7/2011 so ages away (or so it feels).

    Oh yeah and those feeling guilty being at home - my DH came home to find me crying most nights because I felt guilty being at home but not doing much, cause you are not off work ill, but then you are not really on holiday cause you feel so tired and big IYKWIM.

    Alamaya - re terry nappies, you can get them all over the place - Mothercare sell them, although they seem to do them as some sort of package, which might not be the cheapest or best way. I just put terry nappies into google, and loads came up, including Ebay sellers. Obviously pretty coloured ones are more expensive than boring white :)

    I would definitely find a wrap that works for you, it's the most important thing, and almost any nappy will work underneath if the wrap fits right.
  • Congratulations Peaches, and a lovely name :) I have started looking at names today, and it's going to be a hard decision :cool:

    Yeah, I was like that too, but because it was Argos I thought they would be good - it's actually put me right off Argos rather than Ebay
