Anyone still with euro Huggies coupons, I just noticed a thread in the Grabbit section where some Irish people are requesting them.

Can't remember who was first talking about the Mothercare pricematch, but if you're around, could you run through how it works to get the £10 voucher for me? Do I have to order online, then ring, to get a voucher? Think I've found my pram (if it fits in the car) but it's new out this year so no secondhand ones! I thought I could buy a few things, get them pricematched and use the vouchers towards the pram. Also, I assume it is brand name stuff they match on? Couldn't get them to match another firm's own brand mattress for example? Oh, and do they have expiry dates? Thanks

Afternoon all!

Well I thought things were happening AGAIN last night but no, still no baby am seriously uncomfortable now and REALLY fed up. Wish the sodding contractions would just progress plus the amount of show I've seen is just minging!

Lirin - sorry hun but yeah, clicking in that region probably does mean SPD has stepped up a gear...

Constipation can cause pain in the right side of your bump, especially lower down...

Piggers - that baby is just too lovely, congrats again

Mirror - did you get to the chinese karaoke?

Hope everyone is ok, we're having new doors hung today. One day there will be no work left to do on this house. I hope!

Labour vibes to those who want them xx

It's the Maxi-Cosi Elea. It takes the car seat we've already picked, will go parent facing, and will (hopefully!) fit in my tiny boot. I hope it does fit, as I'm struggling to find something that I like that does all I want. I found a few that might've done. but they only came in black, and I fancy something more colourful. £325 though! :eek: So if I can get a £10 voucher or two to put towards it, that'll help.

Oh, Jenjade, I had a lot of bump ache yesterday, I think it was all the coughing and blowing my nose violently pulling muscles! Still full of cold and hiding from the sunshine.

Gillyx

Ooh that does look dinky! How cute. £325 isn't the worst for brand new, and if you look after it can always re-sell. Although with it being small, you will probably use it for longer anyway From looking online I can see Red, Purple, Black and a Brown-y colour.

Aimless

That's what I told the other half, you could pay that for a secondhand one of some makes, and we'll never need to buy another. Quite taken with the bright red one at the mo.

Gillyx

Exactly, we paid alot for our pram but I know so many women who have ended up buying 2 or 3 because they didn't make the correct choice. We spent a lot of time going round all different shops, both independent and large chains, pushing them, taking the carry cot off, putting the push chair on, folding it down, unfolding it up etc, and we loved the one we have. My OH will have the car, I don't drive, so I wanted something I was happy with as I'll be walking everywhere

I've done nothing today except a 10min walk in b&q & I'm crippled Won't be missing the SPD!

thetope - You have finally eased my concerns over usings washables. Everyone I have mentioned it to (who havent used them) was really negative so I was beginning to doubt my decision. Im going to order a few different sorts to try until i find my favorites.

I know EXACTLY what you mean! I've mentioned wanting to use washables to several people and had the same, "hahaha, just wait and see, you'll be chucking that plan in no time" response. Its annoying but i figure, we are all different, so i'll wait and see! I've got probably enough 'sposies for the first 2-3 weeks, and then a variety of different washables, mainly totsbots, motherease wraps, and a few special overnight ones with extra layers for longer last. Also got some flushable liners to get rid of the worst cack, and 3 nappy bags, that you can chuck the dirties straight into, in a bin, then throw the whole lot in the machine when youre ready.

Fingers crossed eh!
