My 24 week appointment if on wednesday. Not sure what to expect from this appointment as she's already done bloods, doppler etc. I will let you all know.
I know the price of travel systems is ridiculous isn't it! OH's parents have very kindly offered to buy ours so we're going to try and find a bargain one as its too much to take and they refuse for us to pay half.
Apparently boots do some at a better price so might be worth looking there. I just want something that folds quite small for the car and is easy to put up and down.
I was thinking along the same lines as you Jane about getting a crib instead of a moses basket. I saw a gorgeous one in mothercare but it was £100 andfor the time they're in them it doesn't seem worth it so we're going to get a second hand one from ebay I think. I think they look more sturdy too.
I'm not sure about the cotbed/cot thing. I was going to go for a cot bed but I think they can stay in a cot until about 2.. is that right Phez or have I completely made that up?
MLM- I know its awful waiting for scans and its scary as we all think about the worst possible scenario but I just kept trying to remember what the doctor told me about having less then 1 in 50 chance of mc after seeing the heartbeat so your odds are so good that beans going to be just fine. The wait it awful isn't it.
Mackjess yes how's Jake? Still can't believe you're going to be holding your baby in less than a month. Are you getting nervous about the birth?
Mrsphez- its so nice to have you back again. Yes I paid for a private early scan. It was great as the dr spent so much time with us, we got pictures and a dvd all for £80. It was the best money I've ever spent as I couldn't have bared to wait until the 12 week scan and I couldn't face going back to EPU after the mc. I would highly recommend it for some early reassurance.
Ah thank you, so sweet! Re cot, Dext was just gone 2 but he's a tall lad so could be longer if you have a smaller baby. Don't think DH is up for early scan but that's OK, I will have to trust my gut! If something doesn't feel right, I'll go to gp and ask for a scan.
