    Ergh! Crappy nights sleep, gave up at 6am and thought i'd read what the yummy mummies have been upto!

    Had a bit of adult fun last night and boy it was entertaining trying to avoid the bump!!

    Re baby changing unit - we went for the type with open shelves underneath. It was more cost effective to buy this as part of the furniture set we went for rather than any other decision. I guess when bubba gets a bit bigger we'll just have to make sure that the messy bits are put into boxes so its not as easy for him to get to. When he is older we can use it as storage shelves as quite a nice design.

    AMC - We are at the same stage. Bubba is still moving but a bit less than before. I'm not too worried about counting the 10x thing as long as I know he is moving I know he is fine. I fined it helps to eat to get him to react.

    Well just had a look at the next sale online and a bit disappointed in the lack of baby things on there. Glad I didn't get up super early to rush into town in person now. Going to have a leisurely morning at home before heading in now, as woken up with a bit of a headache due to bad dreams - dreamt Moon was cheating on me (not true at all btw just felt real), so woke up really angry with him in the middle of the night. lol
    Enjoy the little things, for one day you may look back and realize they were the big things.

    Re changing tablets didn't have one as we didn't have room, turns out it was easier for me to have one mat upstairs and one down.

    I remember from my last pregnancy when I got the bounty bag after I'd had dd it had a voucher for an angelcare (I think) nappy bin you just had to pick it up from Argos not sure if they will have a similar thing this time.

    Can't believe ive gone up to 52 was 50 the other day. Although I realised the other day I've been telling people I was 26 weeks today but realise im actually 27 weeks.

    I wondered if I was searching wrong as there is pretty much nothing in the sale for baby. Obviously I wasn't though if you didn't find much either sexymouse. I was up early enough to go to my local store, but with my SPD I'd never have managed the queue and crowds. Apparently somebody I know spent £3k in there this morning :eek: Even if I had the money I doubt I'd find that much I wanted!

    Sm - most of the stuff available online has sold out as people with VIP slots have been buying since Wednesday. In store is different and they do have baby stuff in stock or they did at 5am anyway.

    Well I'll take a peak when I go into town then ikkle after I've had my shower etc. Saved myself a bit of money by not having breakfast in town though anyway.

    Re NEXT sale, I was in my local next at half seven - there were a few baby items but it was more childrenswear that was in the sale (ages 1+) and then there were specifically for a boy or a girl. The only baby gros they had were England ones!
