    :j Proud mum to Jade age 10 years and Baby Ellie born Christmas Day:eek: with a broke heart :( Proven to be a little fighter and battling on with her heart condition :j
  • I was looking into baby baths yesterday trying to decide which one to get....my Husband wants to get one of these http://www.mothercare.com/dp/B000IVSQZ2?ref=sr_11_1 and after looking at the reviews it sounds great and I bought it! Just looks a bit cruel to me for some reason....bathing a baby in a bucket lol - Great for wind/colic apparantly
    they are brill had one for ds1 4 years ago im buying another for this one......ds hated the normal baby bath as it gets cold quicker in a tummy tub less surface water and they are in the fetal position like being back int he womb, we rested his in the sink lol as i had a bad back and couldnt afford the stand at the time.............but absoloutly brilliant!!!!:T

    ahh dont worry i have a small and mighty 24 washes i think, two bottles of lennor and a massive box of surf (pink box) 100 washes for £8.75 in a bargain shop because its got a different language on the front and back, ive bought some so i dont need to worry about things if the weather gets bad. as well as
    5l bottle of washing liquid,
    10kg bag of rice,
    5kg of pasta,
    a large sack of spuds
    6 bars of dettol soap
    3 tubes of colgate

    oh god i could go on.........as oh works all day and im a house wifey with 4 year old boy i dont want to get stuck for bits if its icy or snowy outside least i know i have the important things i think i have an ocd lol

    Well, I have been stocking up because I don't want to have to go into anywhere like Wilkos near Xmas, standing in queues seems to be one of the most painful things at the mo! I've got about 15 boxes of Bodyform liners, loo rolls, spare deodorant and shampoo, and several bottles of washing up liquid (shop was discontinuing my fave so I cleared the shelf! Also 4 or 5 bottles of my regular washing liquid (also sadly discontinued) as well as some Comfort and Persil i'd already bought for baby stuff. :D We won't mention wipes or nappies. :D

    The sense of impending something seems to have faded a bit now my tax return's done, but I will be surprised if I last 3 more weeks. Bet I will now I've said that! :D

    Evening ladies, just in, been out almost all day :eek:

    Helped OH get his families Christmas presents in and went to see the new Twilight Movie.

    Also got 2 x pair of fleecy button up pj's for the hospital from La Senza (2 pairs for £20, bargain) I'm totally not a nightie type of gal, so bought 1 nighty for labour from M&S, was 25% off.

    Also got my Raspberry Leaf Tea Capsules, (wasn't sure they were 400mg or 3000mg) I got the smaller ones, confused though, also they're not very MSE are they?!? :eek:

    Oooh and some fitted sheets for the crib :o

    Hope everyone is well and those with some twinges, it turns out to be the real thing xx
    The frontier is never somewhere else. And no stockades can keep the midnight out.
  • Well. Me and OH have been playing with the baby carrier/sling tonight.
    With the help of DD's doll and kitty lol.

    I got a Close sling from Tesco, and it seems fab.
    OH got a Tomy freestyle from Ebay and he loves it. Been walking round the house with it on. Easily amused he is :D

    Yummy. Oohh, hope things are starting for you.. Xxx
  • Gilly. You heard anything else from Mamas and Papas? X

    i am a pj chick ;) and seen as though bottoms are fine and its the tops that cover half my bump, i was in asda and saw some pj bottoms £10 with a fold over bit at the top this is not sewn down so i unfold it and it goes over my bump and then i bought 2 nighties to wear as pj tops in asda for about £8
    cheaper than maternity pjs and so comfy!!!! and should last me till the end hehehe.:T
