i use them as the base for my infamous chocolate orange cheesecake - only need half the pack so I tend to scoff the other half while it's baking

How do you make that?

I tried to have the post baby contraception chat with Oh this morning, and he was like why bother 'we'll be trying for the next one straight aay won't we?'
needless to say I didn't have to say anything to that - he just got 'the look'

Congratulation Cpoir. Lovely name :j

Digital - I've got a Maxi Cosi Cabrio car seat. They retail for around £125, but you can get them cheaper if you keep your eyes peeled. I got mine on Amazon for around £60 :money: RE the base this confused me for ages - but I think I have it figured out lol. At the moment the car seat is in my car secured with the seatbelt which is fine. But I would like a base for convenience - but again I'm waiting for a good price. I should have bought it at the same time as I got the seat as now they're back up to full price. Basically my car has got Isofix points, but stupid Ford make you pay for them to cut the upholstery to expose them. Therefore I am looking at the Maxi-Cosi EasyFix base which can be secured with the seatbelt instead of the Isofix anchor points. Does that make sense????

We got the zooom too .

It definitely fits maxi cosi with the aton adaptors, i got mine last week. Not tried them yet cos the pram is at MILs but the SA assured me they fit.
We got the maxi cosi family fix isofix and the maxi cosi pebble.
got ours from Boots using the 20% parenting club voucher discount. I think amazon were cheap too

Thanks both That's great about the adapters, and what a bargain at £60 for the car seat! Maybe it's worth popping into Mothercare, getting a seat fitted etc, then looking up online to see if I can get the bits cheaper :rotfl:
I prefer the Maxi Cosi to the Aton and Primo Viaggio that M&P do, I think. Hopefully it will fit in the car!

LOL I didn't let DH near me for months, I'd had an episiotomy (forcepts delivery) which made me feel wary but aside from that I was just too tired. This is going to be my last pregnancy so DH has a Dr's appointment next week about getting the snip

:drool::drool: that sounds amazing. I love cheesecake!! I made a malteser one a few months ago and it was soooo good. Might have to try this one though. I have never done a baked cheesecake though!

What's everyone doing regarding car seats and bases ? We weren't going to buy so early, but Mothercare are doing 10% off at the minute, so tempted. We don't have an ISOFIX car, but want a car seat that is compatible with our buggy.

I was looking at the MaxiCosi. Our buggy is the M&P Zoom, and I am sure they said the MaxiCosi is compatible using the Aton adapters. Anyone got a clue? Probably the same scenario for the Sola?

We have got the M & P Zoom and we decided to go for the Maxi Cosi Cabrio seat with the Easyfix base as all the reviews I read on the Primo Viaggio said it was very heavy even without a baby in it. The reviews for the Cabrio were all good.

The Maxi Cosi Cabrio will fit the Zoom when used with the Cybex Aton adapters - a member of M & P staff has confirmed it in the questions and answers section on their website and also some other ladies with the Zoom on another forum I go on have confirmed it.

Yeah DH is getting the snip too, he wasn't keen at first so I said i would get sterilised but he has come round to it, and it is easier for a man than a woman. I was told that he couldn't get it done until xx amount of months after the birth of the baby, is this true?

piece of p1ss - if i can do it anyone can - honestly. First time I tried it i didn't cover the bottom of the loose bottom tin properly with the biscuit base - cue cheesecake filling all over the kitchen unit - devastated :mad:
Second attempt - a-ma-zing!
Lasts in the fridge for ages too

Im wanting the Contraceptive Patch, i've tried pretty much every other one (except the coil) and this one would suit me the best.

I hear its hard to get though.
