We used Huggies Cotton Sheets for the first 5-6 weeks for our first. They were a great alternative to cotton wool and just like baby wipes. Just dip in water and use as a baby wipe. Will buy these again this time around..... My son came out in a rash with both huggies pure wipes and the green pampers packs. We had to use only the white pampers ones (sensitive) and you get 8 less wipes in those compared to the green packs. Not very mse.......

Link for the huggies sheets. You can get them in the supermarket and easily for £1 a pack when on offer....

Where are you getting them from? I like the sound of them but a quick Google leaves me floundering for who has stock...? :huh: Tesco, Amazon, eBay all saying currently unavailable for me...?

You may be waiting a while for me Angel ;)

Just popping in to say Clover is now home and doing okay

It's very odd to think that, if I was normal, I could still technically be pregnant right now (40+12!).

Lots of good wishes to Kerri, Zippy and everyone else I shared my journey with. Thinking of you all xxx

Home from hospital, with a McDonalds

All in all the GTT wasn't too bad, the drink was a bit sickly and it was boring waiting around for 2 hours ( maybe better to take OH/friend/relative if you can). I've to call them back after 4 for my results.

snap... I've got so many links in my favourites from thing you lovely ladies recommend.
I cant find them anywhere online either!

Been on the tesco baby event this morning and got one of the wallaboo wraps in black to use in the car seat and a 1 tog 0-6 months sleeping bag.

lilymay its lovely to hear clover is home. You must be beaming!

kerri sending you lots of labour vibes!


Baby had a party last night and moved about a lot! At one point my bump was a really strange shape (think we actually saw a foot sticking out :eek:). Left me feeling a little bruised, so along with my stinky cold I had a great nights sleep!! grrr
At least its nearly lunch time.

I saw them instore at Sainsbury's only a few weeks ago.... I've not been looking much yet but they were in Asda and Tesco's too, when I bought them last time around.

Just had a look myself and they do seem sparse online - they're still listed as a product on the huggies website... I definitely saw them at sainsbury's so I'm heading there asap to stock up as these were great for the early weeks. Might not have the option of getting them on offer though

That's the ones we use. The cheapest I've found are Asda - they have a regular price for a 4 pack for £3.50 and usually a box of 12 packs for £10. I never pay more than £1 a pack for wipes. Son is still in nappies now, so we've still enough wipes to supply a small country in our house. They're great for cleaning the leather sofa too :rotfl:

Spotted a deal if it helps anyone
Mothercare has a blue nappy/changing box on offer for £7.49 at the moment. No delivery if you can collect from your local store. I bought one even though I'm team yellow as I can always swap with my son's white one he's still using :rotfl: Not sure when the offer ends.......

Oh I'm glad they let us go ! I took my kindle with me just incase but even when waiting 10 mins to be seen I couldn't concentrate on it, too much going on around me.
