The Ultimate Hard and Fast debt clearing mission

Aye I know, but I have a feeling a few of them are. From the pregnancy thread I get the impression I need a stack of muslins as high as me, and some kind of cot/moses basket/crib and bedding would probably be pretty important too

She was asking if I had a list of everything I still needed, and going through the mothercare catalogue pointing out loads of things asking if I'd got that or needed that or which one of these I preferred.... I'm feeling the urge to panic buy flooring so we can get the room decorated and start filling it with potions, lotions and tiny pieces of fabric for various uses.

No panic buying, that gets you an anti swirlling martin.

I know, I'm contenting myself with making a spreadsheet

Yes definately agree with that. Muslins are fab for cleaning up everything plus i used them to drape over when out and about and feeding. Look out for good deals on them as some shops are expensive, supermarkets do them for cheaper and i got some cheap at the baby show from one of the stalls.

We had a moses basket and she was in it till nearly months , proably helped by her being quite a small baby and she now sleeps in her cot bed which converts into a bed when she is older.

Turns out all the mega cute teeny tiny clothes I ordered on next sale didn't arrive in the one bag yesterday, just had another batch of cuteness arrive so that's perked me up no end.

Think I may have to add 'long bath' to my to do list, I'm hobbling like an old dear today as for some reason one hip is really sore at the back. I'm sure it's just another dose of good old hormones combined with being an awful sleeper at the moment but I'd quite like a day of waking up and feeling fantastic right about now.

Erm...whut? More? Really?

Won't ETA but do a new post as I notice NIM is on the ball as ever at reading up - one of the bits that just arrived are some fleecy thinsulate mittens for the baby, as I saw them and knowing how cold my hands get wanted some really good ones in case the baby feels the cold as much. I'm holding them up against a pair of leggings (3-6 months size on both) and the mitten is as long as the leg of the leggings! These mittens may be super warm but our baby is going to need to have abnormally large hands to fit them at the right time.

Not much more dear, don't worry.

If anyone has any M&S shopping in mind, £15 voucher for £7 on living social if you haven't seen it (similar to when that boots treat street thing was on). If anyone fancies it link is here (this link does count you as one of my referals, if you don't like me, don't click it )

Thanks, just done that as i usually buy Poppys vests/sleepsuits from m and s and will need the next size soon x

I love M&S quality I have to say, and since it can be used online or instore and is valid for a year I can't in all honesty see me not spending £7 in there in that time so I'll have saved a bit.
