if you go into labour or waters break in mamas and papas

[XsarahGrace]

they give you a £500 gift certificate, my mums friend works there and we never really needed baby stuff and she was saying that there store offers it, and so do some others.

i'm not sure the logic in it or even why but i am pretty sure i want my waters to break in there, i suppose it's a rare thing thats why they can offer it but still pretty worth it.

she said though they've not yet since she's been there had anyones waters break in store.

*makes mental note to bounce around M&P from 37 weeks*

But seriously thats fab isnt it!

 

[XsarahGrace]

i know, i was like with £500 to spend in there you can get alsorts you want but then i suppose you have to get it after the babies born and i reckon there must be a catch on how long you can use it but then again waters break during the stages of mild contractions walk round grab what you want and tell whoever your with at the time to get it all in the queue and you can then go to hospital
knowing you got loads of new stuff.

I heard mothercare do one too? and most supermarkets x

 

[kimfrye661]

I wish stores in America did that!! That'd be awesome! lol.

 

[Dukechick]

OMG, that's a pretty sweet deal!! I don't know if any stores around here have the same idea!?

 

[xBlackBeautyx]

B&Q do it, Tesco's, Asda, Mamas and Papas, mothercare. I tihnk alot ofd the big stores do it, its just not advertised etc. Probably to avoid fraud

I would pay one of you to try that!! Go to the back of the shop, make sure you have someone with you, splosh the water on the floor and your clothes and shout "Oh my god" then get your friend or whoever to go upto one of the store assistants all embarrased and tell them

Trouble is they would probably call an ambulance for you and imagine the embarrassment of having to explain to the paramedics that they haven't really gone

 

[orange-sox]

Hmmm suppose... "Ooops, must've wet myself"

 

[chuck]

Naw decline the offer of the ambulance and call a friend/OH to pick you up...say youre having a home birth or daont be so daft this isnt TV I'm not going to give birth now it's going to be hours yet I'll walk home to get things going!


...I've clearly thought about this too much!

 

[mrskx0x0]

I think I will refuse to leave the house after 38 weeks, how would you tell someone. "Erm excuse me sir but my waters broke in the fruit and veg aisle, sorry".

With complete nonchalance...grab the spottiest nerdiest looking kid you can see on work experience!!

 

[SianMA]

I think Boots do it too - but do you have to prove that you then go into labour? I'm sure lots of people would fake it if they knew!

 

[tashyluv]

haha I can just imagine loads of ready to pop mummies walking around these shops now lolll
