London baby show - anyone going?

[Faerie]

I will have my 8 week scan 15 October, so depending on the result of that I was planning on going to the show on the 18 Oct. Has anyone been to one before and did you find it useful? Thanks!

p.s I went here and clicked on the "complimentary tickets" button, don't know if it works yet though https://www.totsbots.com/

Is that the one at Earls Court?

 

[Faerie]

Yes, the Birmingham one's in May I think.

I'm going to the one in London

Not got too much left to get but hoping i'll get myself a bargain or too.... taking the MIL and SIL with me... trying to persuade the OH too!!

 

[Shifter]

Yep. Was going to go with my mum, but looks like she won't be able to make it, so I've persuaded the hubby to come! I sold it to him on the basis that I intend to try out some prams and I said he would need to try them out too as he'll have to use the one we get as well! He actually seemed quite enthusiastic!

Hmm, I just emailed for free tickets too. What did you put in your email? I said how many tickets and for which day!! We shall see what happens!

Whoops, forgot to put the day hopefully they'll message back! I got my sister to request some too. Not sure yet if DH can come.

Im going on the friday. Not been before tho. Heard its super busy.

 

[Neecee]

Thanks for the link, I was planning to go to this too.

 

[Shifter]

Bah, totsbots only had 30 free tickets to give away and they've all gone. They should jolly well take the link off their website then really!

 

[Neecee]

Yeah, surely they know they're gonna get more than 30 replies!

 

[Faerie]

Oh no, how rubbish! Sorry to put the link up, didn't realise.

Will probably still go but would have been even better if could have got there for free!

I wanted to go but didnt want to book just incase as its will be getting very close by then!!

Might go to the one in May!!

Have any of you booked tickets yet? Do you think I should do it now?

 

[Shifter]

I don't think they anticipate selling out as you can buy tickets on the door. But we'll be buying ours on Friday (payday!) so as to save a few quid!

 

[Faerie]

I have my 8 week scan on the 15th Oct, so if all goes ok then I will book tickets. Still feels a bit early to be going to a baby show, but the next one is the month I'm due and I'd like to get an idea of all the products before then, especially prams.

We are going on the Saturday and I can't wait, I dont think OH is as enthusiastic though!!
