    New thread!!!!! Signing in...

    I am off to Asda in a few minutes, will report when I get home. This is the one on the way from the clients office, not sure how big is it, but hope to gt some Huggies starter boxes, so can re-use the coupons again!

    Cot bumpers - I haven't thought of using them, but it sounds like it might be useful. I am sure I read somewhere to remove them by 6 months, as baby can start pulling at them and the ties can be an issue. Not sure though - haven't looked much into them!

    My Dad ordered the travel cot Lucy, and it'l be available to pick up in store on Thursday, apart from that, I've not went near :(

    Just waddled all the way to Tesco (I say all the way it's about 0.7m from my house) to get more Comfort, resulting in the most horrific pelvic pain ever and they were out of stock :( so had to treat myself to some chocolate!

    Emmylou - thanks for the shanticot. I have seen them online, but I don't like it, and I am not even considering using it! I would like L-shaped one, but you can either not find them in the UK, or they cost a fortune!

  • Hope all you ladies are okay. Not posted for a while cos I've had a bit of a stressful meltdown but hopefully I'm through the the other side now. I'm 27 weeks now and it seems to be going so quick it's ridiculous.
    Congrats to all the recent mummy's.

    well ive struggled today with the cold ive caught off OH, but mum took me out for ikea breakfast and bought the throw i wanted for my bday present for the house matching the other one its gorgeous n warm.

    kiddicare delivery arrived this afternoon, with the adapters for my cabriofix car seat i bought off my friend to fit on the chasis of my obaby zezu and im over the moon i have a travel system now, which means on nipping out visits i can just take the car seat and chasis n leave the carry cot at home, also with the delivery came babys changing mat reduced from £12.99 to £4.99 so right bargain, its cream and cappiccino to match his swing and our front room lol

    Ello all.

    Feeling really off tonight. So tired and achey it's horrible :(

    On the plus side we managed to get some Newborn boxes this morning.
    Used Asda baby club vouchers for 4 and then got another 8 with vouchers, so 12 packs of nappies and 20 packs of wipes for £10.

    Happy with that.

    Thinking bed early for me tonight, with a massage promised from OH.
    Can't wait. X

    Thanks for the shiny new thread Gilly!

    Had my health and safety assessment at work today, told them at 15 weeks but it took until 26 weeks to sort it out, thankfully I'm in a low risk desk job but it would have been nice to know I could have more frequent breaks as I'm finding my brain getting a bit frazzled!

    Worked out I have 12ish weeks left at work, but three weeks hols I can either take before I go, or (if I've understood rightly) add to the end and have a few extra weeks with LO, it's a tough decision as I'm finding it a bit of a chore travelling in already and that's probably only gonna get harder!

    Thanks for the undies code, will have a look later, I really want some nice loungewear type things for nursing and comfort (I'm such a homebody!)

    Tbh Gin, i cant see why anyone would like that cot! I supppose the idea is good, but cant see even the babies liking it???
    Anyone else noticed the newborn nappies in the huggies box are now in a see thru pack rather than the normal ones?? Must remember to use them first so i can return the "originals" for exchanges if needs be!
    Anyone know how i can get my blood pressure up?? 98/50 today, looking thru my notes its dropped every app since booking in :(
    Oh, and *note to self* dont take raspberry leaf capsules with fizzy drink as when u burp they WILL be tasted.....eww!!
