Ooo I've just added a column to tick off when we have it - bit overwhelming the amount of stuff we need to get!

Bit overwhelming isn't it! At least we've go a while to get sorted!

I used this list - although take with a pinch of salt the word 'essentials'.

Before you have a coronary, some things feature twice & some things are def not necessary at birth time (or not at all).

I went down it & crossed off the stuff that I didn't want/need but found it useful as it enabled me to think what I may need or wanted to buy.

Hello ladies! :wave: Back from my holiday! Gosh, pregnancy in heat really saps your energy doesn't it? I'm kind of glad we were on a lying-around-doing-nothing holiday as I was just too tired to move most of the time!

Bump had a growth spurt last week, glad we came home when we did as my clothes and swimsuits were getting uncomfortable! Still not feeling kicks though.

Hey birdie! Nice to have you back, glad it was relaxing. Hope you feel nice big kicks v soon x

Birdie welcome back, how was it with your friends? You're probably one of those unlucky ones with an anterior placenta stopping you from feeling things

We've been to look at cots and things but we're waiting to move in before we buy things properly. Spent a good half an hour going aww at things in mothercare. That new baby list is great, when dh asked how many clothes we needed I just went 'urrr' lol

Not happy with my diet recently, been eating far too much junk and I'm worried about putting on too much weight. I'm going to start counting calories, not restricting but making sure I'm not going overboard and not eating anything I wouldn't give baby when she's here. I have plenty of fat stores so my aim is to keep at the weight I am now but not going to weigh myself- consultant can do that at 36 weeks

20 weeks today, halfway there!
