    Hope everyone is enjoying the xmas holidays!!! I'm loving not having to go back to work, and look forward to starting to get prepared.

    We got quite a few vouchers for xmas from peopel for baby things, woohoo, so yesterday went and got from mothercare:

    2 sets of cot bed bedding, so have 4 of everything
    bt monitor and pacifier
    thermometer
    health and grooming set
    phillips avent thermal bottle bag
    phillips avent breast milk storage cups
    rainforest cot mobile
    3 cardigans
    maternity pads

    And online we got the kit for kids pocketed spring cot bed mattress
    So think we've got everything now, yay!!!! Just need to start washing everything and pack my bags. I've done my birth plan. Want to buy my snacks and drinks for hospital bag.

    For those also suffering with sore swollen fingers (Carpal Tunnel), I know exactly what you're going through. Mine are so painful in the morning, I can't bend them. And the tips of some of them are numb throughout the day. My feet are sore and swollen too. Thank god for my slippers!!!

    But all in all i'm starting to feel alot more prepared for the big day :)

    Good luck to all the boldies!!!

    Lovecrafting - hope you feel better soon and bubs perks up. Re the pcos and large bump, I have pcos and havent heard of that before but I now suddenly have a large bump (measured 39cm at 36 wk check) but its currently heading to my knees so think scaffolding required :eek:

    Hubby - gave me a single red rose from our garden xmas morning so romance is not dead :D he does not give me flowers often so pregnancy must be up there with significant events ;), he made my card and always writes something and he also made a little card for the baby cue more blubbing as if I did not do enough xmas eve :o

    Had a mooch round mothercare bought some baby rattles, reduced breastfeeding vest and more nighties and a storage box for baby stuff like creams, washing bits etc reduced aswell.

    I don't actually like the really bright toys for baby but it seems that if its not neon with weird eyes then its not in vogue :eek:

    For those who are addicted to pizza (not me as we have no decent takeaway pizza place here :eek:) gonna have to send you to pizza rehab:rotfl::rotfl:after bubs are born!!

    Send them my way :D I could probably eat a whole tin to myself, including the ones I don't like :eek:


    On the organised side of things, we still need a changing bag, nursing bras, pants and a nighty for the hospital and I think that is it.

    I've been avoiding Primark before Christmas for the nighty and pants because it would have been too busy so hopefully go soon.

    Apart from that I'm done, anything I don't have will need to wait. Really need to get on with my washing the baby things, sort of given up half way through :o
