  • I went into Boots yesterday and they had the Medditeranean Pregnancy Bubble Bath £4.94. I took two bottles to the till and gave in the buy one get one free voucher first then the free product voucher second.

    the sales assistant accepted both vouchers so paid nothing for the two products.

    Couldn't you get her to join or herself - or do it for her with her advantage card? I am not sure about joining if you aren't a parent as it is not really fair - obviously that is up to you though.

    If you want to collect a few things for her then there are always lots of baby freebies knocking around that you can send off for - have a look for baby freebies on here and see which ones you can go for?

    Cleaning the house while children are growing is like shovelling snow when it's still snowing!

    Another good one I used last time is Nivea Q10 Body Lotion. No stretchmarks at all. I am using that again as well as the Boots Mediterranean one (one in the morning and one at night).

    I have been using bio oil from holland and barrets, and cocoa butter from the body shop, and none as yet..though i do have 10 weeks to go!
    - oh except, some nasty ones on the back of one knee which i hadn't thought to bother moisturising! argh..why on earth would they appear there!

    Unfortunatly moisturiser will not stop stretch marks .Its all genetic,look to your mum and sisters ,if they have got them you are more likly to also.
    If you don't get them you are one of the lucky ones.Its the same with celulite,its all in the genes.
    Still moisturise though as it will make you skin smooth and smell yummy.Even better get someone to do it for you and relax before your baby arrives.
    As a mum of a 4 month baby I can assure you you don't get much time afterwards.

    p.s. Its all worth it though
