    Put the cot up. So weird to think there'll be something in it soon :D And I really must get round to sanding those floorboards...

    My "something" feels like s/he is trying to claw her/his way out at the moment...! :o

    Monks - congratulations!

    fluffnutter - your cot looks just like mine! Is it "Anna" from JL?

    Dragged my butt to work today but was in a LOT of pain and can barely walk. I feel like phoning in sick tomorrow but it's my last week and don't want to leave things unfinished. Could ask DH to give me a lift but this would add an hour to his journey :(

    Yeah... I think you're going to need to take a few things out of first! The OH dumped his pants and socks in the cot this morning - he said it was a 'useful space'. I shrieked that it was not to become a dumping ground for his manky undercrackers!

  • woaaaahh! This thread moves SO FAST!

    I will never be able to keep up with all your chatting :)

    So, I have been AWOL for a few days, but I have a good excuse - pram shopping, MSE style. I have been slightly in pregnancy denial, so up until about a week ago had bought absolutely nothing. Zilch, nada, zero baby related items.

    I finally realised that monkey is actually going to arrive at some point, and probably should have some possessions. In a frenzy of buying - we now have a baby hammock (bargain), breast pump (£10 bargain for a medela swing, RRP £120!!), car seat, ISOFIX base, pram adaptors for said car seat, travel system, AND 2 babygros with hippos on AND a hat.

    I feel victorious, if a good bit poorer. I also have an extensive list to of other things and ebay alerts pinging on average about every 7 seconds.

    Congrats to any new arrivals, hugs and labour vibes to those who need them.

    Does anyone have a Pink Lining changing bag? I'm thinking I may treat myself with my bonus I'm due this month. But not sure what to go for, so many options! I'm liking all the Pink ones though! What is the material, is it a wipe clean type?
