    Aaaargh! Blooming JB!!! So I cancel the box - well suspend my account since you can't cancel and they still take payment.

    I've emailed them as there's never a reply to their phone as I want it refunded or I'm going to Trading Standards as I can't cancel with the bank - Well out of order!


    Well Done Rose - even bigger than my 10.5lb'er:D He's 6'4 now and eating me out of house and home!!

    Thanks ... I have mild rosacea and the REN products are good but, you know how it is, you're always looking for something better.
    I just don't want to make an expensive mistake.

    I'm with purplebutterfly on this one, I've also tried the Chamomile and Rosehip and it was ok, but nothing special. It didn't irritate my skin though. Pai do a sample set for £1 plus £3.50 p&p.

    Pretty small, but enough to find out whether they're suitable for your skin, plus you get to choose two different moisturisers.

    I prefer Barefoot Botanicals - the SOS cream is amazing for sensitive/stressed skin and I love the Rosa Fina range, especially the anti-ageing day cream.

    Hi beautyboxers!

    Thought I'd let you know after all your kind wishes of luck that beauty box baby is finally here and at home!

    Went in on Monday night to be induced, by 5am Tues had contractions every 3 mins, which went on all day, was progressing really well and really fast but then stopped late that night when it was nearly there - had to have a c-section. Was gutted, fought it all the way, but when the baby came out turns out it was 11 pounds 13 oz, and they think there is no way I could have done it naturally!! The biggest baby all year apparently!

    So we have a baby girl called Ella, she is absolutely delightful :)

    OMG,thought my son was big at 10.8lbs,love to you all

    Oh congrats Rose, Daddy and little baby Ella!

    Well done you for getting that far but I think it was probably for the best it ended in a C section! Get lots of rest, it's amazing how you never realise how a c section will effect you till you've had it, I couldnt believe I could barely sit up!

    Congratulations Rose80. I've been wondering how you were. Such a big healthy baby. I bet she's gorgeous. Well done! x

    Welcome Baby Ella! :D:D

    And what an amazing size - a caesarian was definitely the better option! :eek:

    Many congrats Rose, and to your hubby too. We've all been in suspense wondering how it went!

    I agree with purplebutterfly re name choice. Ella will always be a classic beautiful name. (I was given a very 1970s name which immediately lets people know how old I am!)
