Here goes!
Hi everyone, well DD and I are having a pj day today as it's raining in good ol blighty. Got my mum coming up with my neice later, so may have to get off my tush and do some tidying.
I'd not blame you, raining here too, sounds a bit windy also, but better than pollution and stuffy air. Hope you don't need to tidy too much!
I slept awfully last night so OH took DD to nursery and left me to sleep.
I don't know if it's just wishful thinking but I'm sure he's moved head down now. Kicks and wriggles just feel different. As for secretly hoping for labour at 37wks my Dd was born at 41+5! And weighed 8lb9 so if not early at least on time would be nice for this one!
Could possibly be, 37 weeks they start getting worried about how baby is presenting.
My baby has moved since 32 weeks, first guess was hiccups so very low, sometimes not dead centre, but certainly down - confirmed by midwife cephalic lie.
Also packing hospital bag... I haven't got a changing bag yet, let alone the stuff to go in it, and I'm coming on 35wks now, so no not packed, but I do keep thinking it needs doing, so anything from 30+ weeks I'd say is ok.
We went to look at prams yesterday and are buying one on Friday, can't believe how much some of them are!! We have a budget of £750 for baby essentials and a lot of them come separate so you have to buy the chassi and seat, then carrycot separate and then the car seat, then if you want a colour it's more! Plus adapters for the car seat it was all amounting to £800+!!
Eventually we found one that's a nice sea green/blue it's a carrycot that turns into the pushchair, and then there's a swivel button so baby can be parent facing or forward facing, it comes with cosy toes too, so I only have to buy car seat as extra and adapters and it's £480! From mothercare.
Pack your bag silly woman
I was going crazy knowing it wasn't done and we couldn't just grab it if I randomly needed a hospital stay, because you never know.
Mine is pretty much done, just need nursing bras and a nightie or two, but got pyjamas, knickers, pads, food, drinks, toiletries etc.
Babies is certainly done! Packed up and ready yay
Ugh don't get me started on buggies! Second time round is so much harder to pick, though, in a way, you know what you want and what you don't want in a buggy.
Glad you managed to find one for a reasonable price. You certainly get what you pay for but worth looking at reviews for annoying little things like leaves in wheels!
I had a luna mix from mamas and papas for my DD, loved it, was cheap too! But so many annoying parts to it.
I have the Quinny Moodd Britto, you don't need a carrycot as it lays flat with a baby nest (which us soooo cosy!), inc. car seat adaptors, parasol, rain cover and with my package, a cabrio fix car seat. Love that it has chunky wheels, I did want a bugaboo cameleon but the wheels don't seem best. Very small. I'm heavy handed with my pushchairs too!
Wow I've waffled quite a lot there! Happy Monday everyone
Happy Monday xxxx
