I've taught a few kids who've had club foot - and apart from being at the end of having to wear (really snazzy) splints - they've all been fine in terms of running around like lunatics (chucking chairs like a champ in one case :-/ )!

Did a bit of shopping last night - picked up a combi pack of selection of bottles, teats, breastmilk storage pots, breastpump, insulated bag and microwave steriliser that I'm pretty happy with since it's pretty much everything ticked off the feeding section of my list (planning on breastfeeding but wanted some things in just in case it all goes boobs-up or for expressing) in one box for much cheaper than it looked buying the separate stuff. Also the freebie Boots changing bag , one of the changing mats (we want one upstairs and one downstairs because I'm damned if I'm running up and down all day on poo patrol) and just a few packs of wipes to start that stockpile - and spotted quite a good travel system dealie I'm interested in - while it's not an off roady buggy I'd really like, we just can't afford one of them - but it was car seat, buggy, changing bag and everything all-in, which I think I'd rather go for than have to faff on with adaptors to fit carseats to frames and things (too much brain power required there!)... not buying any of the bigger stuff till after next scan, which conveniently coincides with the January sales starting - and since we've got a moses basket lined up, it's just really cot, change table and a chest of drawers or so needed anyway (the room's got built-in wardrobes and since I know from experience in the other room that if I rip them out half the wall and ceiling will come with it - they're staying!) - and bedding, when we work out if we're getting a cot or a cot-bed.

What a fab, fab, fab day!!

Got to our scan, had 25 minutes of baby not playing ball, and then he said, "ahhhhh I think........it's a girl"

Then I said "think????? - that's not enough!!!"

So then he said, "Oooohhhh - yeah there we are it is definitely a GIRL""

I nearly fell off the bed and OH went into complete shock!!! We were convinced it would be the boy,

We couldn't be happier and are over the moon - literally!!

So we went and bought the cutest little outfit ever, and went and showed all the family!

I AM ONE HAPPY BUNNY X X X X X

snoopy massive congrats! me and dh had a bit of a funny moment earlier when he admitted he'd like a girl and i admitted i'd like a boy!! lol

time for random question of the week!

where do you feel your baby move? i am 19 weeks and i'm feeling it move quite low, just above my pubic area? is that normal?? it seems to be kicking a lot when i lean down.. lol i suppose it's a way of telling me, OI this is not comfortable!!

Sorry, I'm just lurking around as I can't sleep...

When I first felt Pip move it was low down. Now (at 34 weeks) it's all over the place! But it was right down at the bottom when I first felt it... So it sounds pretty normal to me!

Congrats snoopy.

I feel movement pretty low down most of the time. The kicks are very low but more general movements are a bit higher
