19weeks today nearly half way through!! 2 weeks until my gender scan How come you are all finding out early, are you paying for private scans?? Congratulations to those that know and good luck to those with scans coming up

Lol yep, we paid $89 for a private scan.

So I've finally found a pram that I love and that will probably fit in my boot of my beloved Ford Ka but my OH thinks it's too girly for if we had a little boy! I thought purple was a pretty unisex colour. Does anyone think a this pram would be too girly for a boy?

My personal opinion is that its too girly. I wouldn't put a boy in it, but hey its your choice hun. If I were you I'd keep looking until you found one you and OH both love, that way he feels involved if you get me? My OH just keeps looking for them and showing them me hehe xx

 

[PrincessTaz]

Yeah I know deep down it is but I just love it so much. I'm thinking I don't want to be team yellow anymore but OH really wants a surprise. It's making buying stuff a nightmare. All you can get is white or bloody cream. I love bright and loud colours so think I'm going to have to find out even if he doesn't want to know x

 

[Jessy16]

I honestly think it's too girly, sorry! I noticed they do other colors of the same stroller, so you could always get a different, more gender neutral color like black? It's really nice though and looks similar to the stroller I'm getting.

 

[PrincessTaz]

I think we might even wait until LO is here and then we'll know. I really don't want a black pram, I'm not a black person really. I quite like the green one too, maybe that would be ok for boy and girl. We're just discussing possibly finding out the gender at our 20 week scan but OH is really against it, I have 3 weeks to change his mind though x

 

[Icklebean]

wellll i dont know what to do my hubby doesnt want to find out either lol

 

[Jessy16]

Taz, I had a look at the website and the Truffle one looks really nice to me. It's black which I know you said you didn't like but the browns and greens look really good IMO

 

[frantastic20]

Taz I think it's a lovely pushchair - I think although the purple colour is quite neutral the lining is a bit girly. But I was about to suggest the green one just before I noticed it was mentioned already!

 

[Emaskew]

just a note to all those ladies who have or who are considering buying a pram/pushchair from mamas and papas. We ordered a Stokke xplory from M&P a month ago it was £999 and had an offer which included a free stokke car seat worth £269. Yesterday me and the OH went to the shop complete with a print out from the web showing the pram set for £715. Mamas and Papas offer a price match which i thought wouldnt apply as we had the offer with a £269 car seat for free, however the price was changed without question and the free car seat is still all in at the grand price of £715!!! cant believe my luck!!!

So the message is if any of you ladies have brought something from M&P with a price match promise you should really spend time online looking as it was a 5 min task that saved me much ££££

[Jessy16]

[seaweed eater]

Keep us posted, Lynne glad you heard the heartbeat. Hope tomorrow goes well.

 

[Charlotteee]

We were looking at that pram in blue and although it looks brilliant we just can't justify that much for a pram

 

[lynne192]

thanks all scan in 2hours hopefully they don't find anything wrong only good news i had bleeding with my son but its not settling me at all knowing that lol

 

[holywoodmum]

Jessy I was in the Bay area, San Mateo and Foster City

Jenny, my friend did that with her third, found out but didn't tell a soul Good luck keeping secret!

Happy 18 weeks mummyb1

Taz, I like the green or red one We have a green pram, and two girls so far - I love bright primary colours for boys and girls (OK, I know green isn't a primary colour, but you know what I mean!)

Lynne, what a day for you, hope all goes well today with fetal medicine x

As for me, been busy packing the last two days. Health Visitor coming this afternoon and house is a tip ah well. having a day off from packing today and having a day out with the wee ones

 

[Elhaym]

[Jessy16]

I just read your journal entry, wow what a day you've had. Sorry you were messed around quite a bit and there was a lot of poor communication as well, I bet that was frustrating. Hopefully your next scan will be a lot better -- what date is the scan?

On a positive note we're almost 16 weeks, can you believe it?

 

[lynne192]

i booked a private scan for saturday my next scan at the hospital is 3rd may i think but be pointless they are useless idiots which worries me as i have alot of issues that need to be kept an eye on they already know this but i think they just don't care guess you get what you pay for.!
