2015 October Owls! | The chicks are hatching! *16 boys & 8 girls so far!*

Lot to catch up on... sorry to hear about the losses :(

sorry to hear you are ill serenjay

nothing new to report over here. Still waiting for my initial midwife call. sigh.

prams are a minefield I'm always torn between what i want an what price makes me feel sick haha. i mean lets be honest prams should never cost 800 quid (and even more) i mean crikey. They got ya though cos ya want them and the crappy ones are never as good.
 
Oh no, so sorry for those losses we have on our group! :nope: Sending :hugs: your way <3
 
As for talk of prams. We're getting the bugaboo bee3 with extras. Costs a small fortune but it's such a pretty pram. Not sure if I want aluminium or black frame. :)

I've tried every bee model going and hated them... Have a good try of one and ask for reviews from proper mums, there not all there cracked upto be x
 
Omg I don't think I could live with paying more than 200 for a pram and that'd have to be a really good one that would last till toddler stage lol.

Does anyone here know much about baby wraps?

Xx
 
I used a Moby wrap with my first and loved it. Planning on getting another one for this baby as I stupidly sold my first! They are about 5m long though - so pays to tie at home rather than while out and about to save it getting dirty
 
I had a baby bjorn carrier rather than a wrap, I was really pleased with that. I used it for a long time!
 
I had a Moby with my first, my subsequent children I have used the capsule when going out/out and about and then my Beco when they were a bit older. I do like a pram when out as I like to be able to carry all the assorted crap you end up needing with kids LOL

I have my first OB appt tomorrow morning, gearing up for an emotional morning as she is my OB who delivered my third child (my OB retired with 1&2) and if it wasn't for her evasive action he wouldn't be here today so I am eternally grateful to her. Lots of memories being triggered :cry:

Hope everyone else is doing ok :flower:

I've played with one in John Lewis but will go again to get a Demo of it being folded etc. for everything we want for it it's close to £900 so need to choose carefully

I have a baby carrier addiction. I love them all...wraps, SCC's, slings, Mei teis, you name it.
 
I so want to use the slings / baby-wearing stuff! But I'm afraid it will come untied or baby will fall out!
 
i have an ergo for my lo and have done since he was born. .. i just never got on with it long term.. in the summer it was sweaty and to be honest i found it hard work. much harder than just using the pram. The only times it really is amazing is when we wanted to go somewhere awkward; the beach, a farm with lots of walks; basically anywhere where it is akward to push a pram. I might just be a wimp though. i haven't gotten on with any slings/wraps. I can tolerate the ergo and i honestly think it is bcause i am so small.. i struggle with them.

They are snuggled right up next to you, so it feels really secure. You should try it! There are local babywearing clubs almost everywhere. You could try attending a meeting. At meetings you can try out the different styles of carriers to see what suits you best before you buy something. I like wraps, ring slings and Mei teis for the bitty baby stage, but once they hit 6 months I've always gone to scc's.
 
I really want to have a wrap converted to a ring waist Mei tei for the new baby. It is a lot of money to have that done though and I don't really need another carrier so we'll see.
 
I love using baby carriers, but can't seem to carry my kids past 6 weeks as they are always heavy so they then go in a pram...

I just got home. I was on a drip till 7am. they took wee samples until the ketones had all gone and then I had to eat breakfast and lunch and keep it down before I was discharged. So im home now cuddled up on sofa. I have been given Ondansetron and Cylizine with rantitadine. They said nothing will stop what I have but it can hopefully be eased.. but if I get back into a cycle of vomiting and not keeping fluids down to see my gp as I may need to go back in.. FX it eases
 
Fingers crossed for you Serenjay. Were you this ill with your other kiddos?
 
My first child yes.. admitted a few times until I was 7 months!!! but the other 2 just normal morning sickness and occasional vomiting. This reminds me of my 1st pregnancy again x
 
Best wishes Serenjay, I hope the sickness is now kept at bay.

Just put of interest, what gender were your other pregnancies?
