    My packs have contained Strawberries covered in yoghurt, bran flakes and lindt chocolates, in yesterdays pack was a breast pad sample.

    Were trying to conceive so all the freebies and samples are going away into my "baby bump box" for when it happens.

    Guys, don't you feel you are being just a bit mean? What about all the other mum's that would like to pick one up but can't cos you've exhausted the supply?!

    lillibet they never send out cards from the website i've found, but your midwife should have given you an 'emma's diary' at your booking in. it has the claim card in it. didn't you get one off the midwife? i also got a baby welcome pack and a bounty pack, all from the doctors surgery or midwife.

    EDIT: i got 2 claim cards, i'll send you one of them if you want to pm me your address.

    awww, that's a bit rubbish! i only got so many because of the chocs and the fruit flakes (my son loves them and we don't get the yoghurt ones in our shops, just the flakes on their own and he hates those). and of course the hipp coupons that can be used off my shopping in asda, must go get another pack actually, i'm running out of vouchers lol!
