    yay, bubba's furniture arrived today, will be assembled on the weekend! Midwife also signed us off for the local birth centre so very pleased about that!

    Few more bits organised for hospital bag today. Tomorrow's job is to collect the curtains for bubbas room. Slowly making progress!!

    Wow - so many nappies. I've only got enough for 3 / 4 days. Going to see which style & brand bubba takes to before buying more. Also keen to move over to washable ones as soon as is feasible.

    Robyn - great choice of room colour. Yellow is the in colour :)
    I'm due 3 days after you might do a spot of Q jumping. Apologies in advance lol. Yellow and lilac room here ... Got any piccies? https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=10151913564880574&set=a.10151550971185574.844016.677345573&type=1&theater

    Evening all,

    How is everyone?

    We've been clearing the living room ready for delivery of our new sofa and chair tomorrow :) I've also had a go at making a taggie blanket on my sewing machine, it's not perfect but for a first proper go I think it's ok.

  • Just popping in before sleepy time!

    Fluff glad your sweep wasn't too bad. Fingers crossed lo gets a move on.
    Bikeless tesco do it several times a year you take your vouchers and can double them. Don't remember them including baby last time, I probably didn't look. Normally can double up on clothing, toys, some electrical stuff, house stuff. Doesn't include booze or food (it did include finest food/drink at Xmas). I'm sure they do one in August I'm convinced I got toys for my niece's bday in August.
    Emsbet I'm jealous of your sewing skills :-(
    Stretch marks can't remember who said they'd spotted their first mark. :-( hugs to you, I was gutted when I found mine. Hope you don't get too many more. I look like I've been savaged by my bear!

    Can't remember what else has happened so apologies if I've missed anyone. Hugs to all that need them and sending labour vibes to those that want them xxx

    Morning All,

    Wow Emsbet, love the taggy blanket. Have thought about making some bits myself but havnt found time yet maybe in a few weeks when i start mat leave.

    Fluff glad the sweep went well, heres hoping your to busy to post very soon ;)

    Nappies- I have approx 400ish disposables in sizes 1-3 plus the little lamb re usables from the offer. Certainly havnt spent much though most freebies or vouchers including the 20 re usables with inserts ect I have spent about £70 in total. :money:
    I signed up to every website possable for vouchers plus OH did (unbeknown to him).

    I am getting jelous now of all this talk of decorating baby rooms, I have no spare room and baby will be in with us which isnt a problem although a little tight for space but would now love to be setting a room just for her.

    Well that was it last busy tuesday yesterday. Finally finished Girlguides last night with a BBQ in the rain up the local hill. Girls loved it, we all got very wet but enjoyed ourselves and got some fresh air. I was fine i thought untill i sat in the car to come home ohh the legs then gave in and ached sooo much, but a nice hot shower and bed did the trick.

    So annoyed with local dr surgery, can never book in with MW lately either they dont have the diary available or she is already full. I tried to book my 34, 36 and 38wk app yesterday as its a new MW now and would have liked a name at least. surgery still couldnt tell me her name and had no diary for her yet, she starts today for goodness sake :mad:
    Looks like its back to the drop in sessions at the local centre on a friday which means walking as there isnt any parking, fine for now but getting more tricky as time goes on.

    Hope everyone has a good day, Hugs to all who need it and labour vibes to all who want them :)
