Yay PM, mine lives by the sofa at the moment, when baby is here it'll be there during the day then next to my bed at night.

Same! Hoping mine works well for convenience sake... bought it second hand and it is older/simple and classic looking. Just doesn't have any of the fancy changeups that all of these days' bassinets seem to have.

What is a bassinet? A moses?

google images shows moses basket type things and travel cots

Finally decided to upload an avatar after all this time...

Here's my baby girl at about 20 weeks

so lovely and very clear for 20 weeks! I saw my boy at 16 weeks and 28 and the 16 week one looks very much alien like

Ooh yeah just looked, bit like moses really arent they! We have a moses for downstairs, a swinging crib for our room and a cot for babys room

That's my bassinet. A bassinet is probably what you call a moses basket. A travel cot is what we would typically call a playpen (or for some a "play yard").

it's a small oval shaped basket type bed on a stand, like a cradle that doesn't rock. It's nothing fancy, just a safe place to put her down to sleep. I got it second hand from my daughter's friend, now she's due again in June so I imagine I'll just give it back when her LO comes, and I'll put mine in her crib...which should be set up in my new room at my new (old) house

^^ exactly, but mine is even less frilly. Not that that bothers me. Baby ends up in my bed more often than not because I can't keep my eyes open while I nurse during night time feeds. OMG...in less than 3 weeks I'll be doing night time feeds EEEEK!

I was lucky to get the opportunity for a 4d scan. I just so happened to be within the qualifying requirements to participate in a placental health study, so along with that came a scan and free pictures/video! I was also surprised at how clearly we could see her... I've seen some 3d scans of others' and they just look like orangish blobs. Can't wait to see if she looks anything similar (plus a bunch of baby fat, I'm sure). All of the other times we got to see her it was just a standard 2d ultrasound.

 

[PerpetualMama]

I've never had a 3d scan I have a few 2d shots that came out pretty good though. Some of the 3d pics are really scary, other ones you just have to say awww

 

[Jembug]

Oh my lord, just skimmed and not gone on FB....congratulations midnight! Hope your ok and got to hospital xxxx

 

[Wiggler]

I wanted a 3D scan, but OH was a meanie and said no.

 

[embo216]

Ive had 4D's with all mine and the first 2 were amazing but this little man was not playing ball and we tried twice with no clear shots

 

[BeccaxBump]

I'm glad we had our 4D scan - Lily looks just like my OH, and everyone but me said she'd look like me!

Ashley, so cute .

Wriggler, the dyson idea sounds awesome! We can't have a dyson though, our dog thinks they are the devil .

I had a 4d with Oscar but not with this one. The scan looked nothing like Oscar when he was born so we didnt bother this time as we thought it was pointless Secretly wish Id had one though Had loads of 2d black and whites though.

Wow I am so so so tired all of a sudden, lay on the couch with a quilt watching Ds play. Could defo drift off right now ZzZzZzZzZz

You have an amazing shot of LO there. How far along were you when you did the scan?

 

[Wiggler]

I'm a vacuum snob, it has to be a Dyson, or nothing. hence why my Dyson is on it's last legs and I refuse to replace it, I can't afford a nice shiny new one

OH is ignoring my texts now

 

[BeccaxBump]

I was 32 weeks, Ashley , so she's a little baby on there!

Why is he ignoring you, Wriggler? Punch him one .

Go sleep, Smiley, you'll need it soon .
xoxox

I cant sleep Becca, LO will rip the house apart He has just woken from his nap and is full of beans!

Wiggler, I have a Vax which is pretty decent and a fraction of the cost of a dyson!
