    I think they make new threads every so often when they get to a certain size but it certainly would have been nice to get some warning!

    I'm another one looking forward to having baby in babygros for as long as possible - soo cute! :p

    I agree, especially the kind that have the sleeves go over the hands! all snug with only your head popping out would be bliss.

    gotta say though, i love little girls in dresses, only because they usually come with a pair of big frilly knickers which are just far too cute lol x

    Oh yeah, dresses and frilly knickers are adorable! One reason why I'm disappointed we're having a boy! :o

    BUT, now we get to buy this, this and this! #nerdgasm :rotfl:

    Hi LannieDuck, it sounds like you and me are going to be in the same position next year with a newborn and 2yr old. Tell me...are you nervous about having the two too?
    We are trying to get DS to fall asleep without holding my hand atm which is proving hard work!

    Yes, definitely! We were very baby-led with sleeping/going out etc with DD1. Won't be able to do that this time around. However, I'm lucky that DD has become a very good sleeper, so we've got through the difficulties getting her to bed.

    You should have seen me when DS was new :) there was much frantic googling at 3am to see if baby's should sweat when they sleep!

    I relied on the guides on the back of the sleeping bag packets. They tell you how many layers of clothes the baby needs for each combination of room temperature and sleeping bag tog :)

    if we get desperate, we can swap babies for a day, you can dress my little girl in frilly knickers and i can dress your boy in a letterman jacket :rotfl:

    they are far too cute, especially the last one! my niece had a vest that said 'bazinga!' so i'm hoping that gets passed down.
    and of course, i've seen star trek ones and clearly little miss deserves command gold lol x

    OH is desperate for this! :rotfl: He's such a geek, but I have to admit to secretly loving all the stupidly geeky babywear, at least our baby won't look like every other kid in town! :)

    Loving the superman outfit Birdie :)
    Still hoping we're team pink though as I'd love one of each - three weeks to find out.
    And although I intend to dress whatever i have in Ds's castoffs I will get a few pretty dresses :D
    Yes, definitely! We were very baby-led with sleeping/going out etc with DD1.
    Us too with DS but he's not a great sleeper unfortunately.

    Actually talking about baby-led I wondered how many of you brand new mum's-to-be know about (BLW) baby-led weaning?

    Its just that I was reading Emma's diary the other night and noticed their page about weaning gives the impression that the only way to wean is mush.
    I've actually contacted them to say how disappointed I was that their information is so limited - if you can't tell I'm very pro BLW
