    It is that one, it looks very basic cmpared to the cotbed but its perfect for my needs.

    You cant buy sheets to fit, but the bigger sheets go on and just tuck them tight underneath, as for the actual big cover duvet thing i will just use that one because you end up using blankets anyway so will have plenty of spares when washing the bedding.

    Baby is recomended to stay in your room for the first 6 months but after that i dont think you would have a problem with LO sharing with new baby.

    They have two names on that site - compact and space saver! I was looking at the space saver, but they are the same size. I do like the set with that though one. I like the colour of the coco one though.

    What are those paded bits that go around the sides of cots called? I guess its to stop them putting their arms/legs/heads through the sides?!

    Horrible situation at work at the moment. They are totally relying on me to do loads of things next year but I'm just sat there thinking "i'm not going to be here, aaagh!" Feel guilty, but what can I do? :(
    Nothing yet, but you could tell them sooner rather than later to help them plan (after your scan of course!)

    Bumpers, but the jury's out esp when they are small due to increased cot death risk! We'll probably do without to start with unless baby is v. wriggly. If you do get some you need to make 100% sure they are breathable.

    its called a cot bumper, i have never used one before, but it came with the set so i might give it ago.

    I just got this one because it was nice and colourful and unisex also it was the first one i looked at, i didnt even see they did others till now lol

    I have recently read this aswell the reason i have never used one before is the angle the cot and my bed was at ment i wouldnt be able to see the baby if that was on.

    Hi everyone!

    Think I'm 8+3 today, still no booking appt or scan date.

    Totally agree with everyone about being completely irrational! I have no patience and feel like I hate everyone at the mo! I'm trying to keep a lid on it but i'm seething inside lol.

    Today I woke up fat! All of my trousers are suddenly seriously tight at the waist and give me a real muffin top when I button them up :mad:. It's not a bump, it's just fat!! Anyone else have this problem? It's far to early for maternity clothes, but I look really awful with this 'overhang' lol

    Good luck for scan tomo 2b
    I feel like this too. Most of my jeans are too tight, so I'm down to 1 pair plus leggings/dress outfits. My scan is a few days before wedding and so am planning a shopping trip for honeymoon clothes once I know everything is ok.

    Horrible situation at work at the moment. They are totally relying on me to do loads of things next year but I'm just sat there thinking "i'm not going to be here, aaagh!" Feel guilty, but what can I do? :(

    I had horrendous bloating in my first trimester, I used a hair elastic to do up my trousers from about 6 weeks! You can buy special trouser extenders at Amazon though http://www.amazon.co.uk/Trouser-Button-EXTENDERS-fitting-clothes/dp/B0069RGUJ8/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1343647388&sr=8-1

    Wow, just had a look at the Kiddicare website - everything is so cheap compared to what I've seen in other shops (ahem, not that I've been looking, that would be silly so early on *cough*;)) Is their stuff good quality/reliable?
