Readytomum- How was the concert? xx
nimbec - you can have either spring mattress or foam mattress, I prefer foam because springs are uncomfortable IMO, But the foam mattress has to not be a very cheap one because you want one with holes and good ventilation in case baby rolls over onto tummy during the night. Doesn't really happen but ya know. You don't have to get a major expensive one, you can get them in Argos just as good but you don't want the very cheap ones either. As for pram set, my favorite so far is the Obaby Zezu, a lot of ladies were saying how you have to buy a Moses bed mattress to cover the buggy straps but I found a quote from the manufacturer who says that you are meant to thread the straps through the pram bed liner so baby can be strapped in, in pram mode too! I think it's fantastic, have a look

Kristabelle - so exciting that in 3 days you will now what you are having!!
Well done on scoring a Moby Wrap!! We will be getting something like that too as I have to do the school run, and it's almost impossible to walk up the pathway let alone get a buggy up there, I only live across the road so quicker to just carry the baby I guess, In Norway we lived next to a massive forest and a lake and I would carry my son around there in his carry thing, he slept better next to my chest too bless him lol, such a mummy's boy!
Doggylover- we have brought all our clothes from tesco and sainsburies so far, but we love primark too! They have cute kids clothes and for the length of time they are in them the price is very fair. I like those shops because you can buy loads without breaking the bank lol. We have 2 sleep suits, a big fluffy all in one from 9 months , a hair brush and a caterpillar toy so far, plus the free cot.. I am doing so well not to buy anything until we know the gender lol..
As for the ticker thing, I do that all the time, I wish I could be further along like others but then I also see the tickers who are behind me and remember how far I've come. I am doing my best to enjoy pregnancy as it's my last now but I find myself wishing it to hurry up so I can meet my little babba too.. crazy really since many times I wish I could go back to when my 6 and 4 year olds were newborns and pregnancy with them.. I should have learned by now that it goes quick lol xx
As for me: I ate a whole jar of pickled beetroot last night and then dinner, and then a whole bar of galaxy, so much for taking my cravings in moderation!! I paid for it though.. a night with a poorly tummy
i've also been looking up those gender tests you can do from home online. There is the obvious chinese gender prediction chart, Mine says boy. It was right with my son too, there is a cabbage test where you mix pee with cold cabbage water and also a baking soda test where you pee in some baking soda and if it fizzes it's a boy and no fizzle means girl, I read in a study they did 22 out of 30 got the right result. But I wonder if there is any point to this since it's all a 50/50 chance of being right anyway. There is also a bleach (Drano) test which I think is absolutely stupid... no one should pee into a cup of bleach!
Also have been looking at photographers for when my little one is born ( I know way ahead of myself) and I saw they do pregnancy pictures but I'm not really into all that, who wants to see me with a huge gut (I know it's my bump but still) it's a belly... it's not really for me either way. But the baby ones are cute, I want one of all 3 of the kiddies together.
And lastly..... when you cough do you heave?? This is a new thing for me but when I cough I have to fight the urge to gag or heave lol.. I have a fear of throwing up.. stupid me getting pregnant 3 times then hey!! but yeh it's horrible!!
I'm sorry I'm mega chatty today, my kids are back at school and I'm all alone in the silence of my dirty messed up flat and I'm just typing to avoid doing any housework
I hate mondays!
