    From what Gilly was saying last night, the offer during the week is £12 worth of points for every £50 you spend in a transaction, so if you spent £100, you'd get £24 worth of points (and she checked and confirmed it with a woman in store). Normally when we run these points offers it's just £10 or £12 worth of points 'when you spend £50', so doesn't matter if you spend £50 or £500, you'd only get one lot of reward points. But it looks as though this offer coming up is different, and would get you more points!

    I am happy to double check when I get into the office on Monday if you want. If it is that you'd get £24 worth of points then it'd be better buying from Boots than NCT as theoretically it would only cost you £76 for the pump as you'd get £24 back, admittedly in points to spend in Boots but still... :D

    Just back from our "last" 4-d private scan. Yet again, as she has been for every other scan private or NHS, beanie has not played ball.
    DH and I were REALLY looking forward to seeing her face, and fingers crossed that she hadnt dropped too far down to see.....

    Well on the upside, no, she isnt too low, but she is in the most hopeless position and refused to move even after over 5mins bouncing and rotating hips on the ball, on hands and knees on the floor waving my !!!!, and jumping up and down wiggling my belly whilst eating jelly beans.

    She is right at the bottom of my belly, sideways on, head down, but bent double from the waist, with her legs straight up (or should that be down) in front of her face, and her arms across her face, holding the backs of her knees, rather like a high diver somersaulting. So we could see the side of her head, the side of an arm and a bit of a leg, and she was NOT moving for love nor money! This explains why i've felt movement on both sides of my lower pelvic area simultaneously, she can kick and punch at the same time, on opposite sides in the mornings. It is kind of like this frank breech position but facing down!

    We get another 2 chances , so going to try and book in one late afternoon when she is more lively, and i think stretched out, as i get kicked higher up by my belly button,

    kira, that picture is crazy, you cant believe that a baby can get in that sort of position!! I have no idea how baby is laying now, I seem to feel him all over my stomach both sides both up and down! So i think hes probably moved from the last midwife appt.

    Been very good today have done lots of cleaning and washing and even made jam buns! Only made 6 though as dad, step mum and nephews are popping in for a cuppa, which means the most I can have is 2.

    On the subject of Breast Pumps, we've decided to buy ourselves some new perfume and aftershave next week, at the Boots extra points event and then just use my points to buy the Breast pump, it's such a sad day for me, I don't want my advantage card to have zero on it :( I've saved so long for those points and spent so much money!!

    Hi all - no word from our boldies yet? 3 of them are over 2 weeks since their due date now.

    For anyone who is after a Moses basket, Tesco have the Clair de Lune ones on offer. See the thread here:

    oh i love uk hot deals too!

    I have decided to buy the breast pump from boots on monday and hopefully get £24 pounds in points and maybe even a free gift.

    I have found £40 in lucheon vouchers from pin*c*nes. Do u think i can use those to pay? without if affecting the points
