:rofl: Claire i only own heals lol

Hiya Mel .. off to add you on facebook now hun ;) sorry to hear youve had such a bad week, whens your Mat leave starting?
 
Afternoon!

Am popping in and out today as I have one eye on a roast dinner. I'm sure it's my DH having cravings as he keeps asking for bubble and squeak! So roastie today and bubble tomorrow.

Congrats on the scan Leanne :happydance:

And congrats to Claire and kittekat.

Sorry to hear you're having a bad time at work Mel.

Went out to get my DH's prescription this lunchtime and couldnt help but notice the big sign outside the beauticians offering a Valentines special of free back massage with every facial. Didn't take much hinting for DH to suggest I make a booking :rofl: So I get to have a much needed pamper next Saturday!

i've been trying to figure out reuseable nappies but they seem so confusing! i saw some at asda and they were the terry towel that you fold and then out a cover over but some i was looking at online look like they are prefolded (tots bot)...there doesn't seem to be anywhere that stock them round here so i can look a them.

Hi Claire,

You might already know this but some councils have reusable nappy schemes. My one gives you a £30 contribution towards nappies and also holds coffee mornings where you can go and look at the different types of nappies. I don't know if they do something like that in your area.

Oh well....going to go have some retail therapy now!! That should make me feel better, especially looking at baby things!!

Think I will be taking mat leave around the end of May. Seems so far away yet!! I'm already counting down the days LOL.
 
Cheers Baci, how are you today? Found out last week i'm expecting a boy, can't believe how many people in June are expecting boys!

yes there are a lot of boys due in june and only a few of us with girls :)

will add you mel
 
Hi Sophie and welcome hun ... lol another June Boy, we will have our own football team soon :rofl:

Have fun shopping Mel xx

Oooh Carol that pampering sounds lovely, i could do with that lol.

Leanne both Phoebe and Darcy are really cute ... will you use Annie as a middle name with one of those?
 
Well I've said all along we would have her name ann-marie as the middle name for a girl but OH is being really stubborn and saying no to both my names so she has to be called Annie.

I'm good thanks! I found out just over a week ago that I'm also expecting a boy. I'm due just one day ahead of you. Have you been buying any baby stuff yet? I only just started buying a few things last week.

Do you have any names picked out yet for your little man? I have not bought a thing, my OH has been holding me back saying we still have plenty of time. I'm looking at prams at the moment but there's just too much choice, its overwhelming since im a first time mum and haven't a clue what type i should be going for!:hissy:
 
Sophie your best bet with prams is to go to a toys r us or baby shop and test drive some,
I know what you mean there's so many out there ... i like the ones that come with a car seat etc but thats just me,
I suppose alot depends on budget, the amount of storage space you have (some are huge!) and what you like the look of,
There's quite a few threads in 2nd Tri about prams etc but until you have a test of some its hard to tell what you will like.
As for your OH making you wait before you start baby shopping ... tell him you need to do it now before your to big and tired to do it (works on mine lol :hugs: )
 
If it was up to me i'd be in the shops looking at prams but my OH seems to think the internet is the cheapest place to find one, especially ebay. At the moment i really like the Silvercross 3D and the Silvercross Freeway Linear but i've not really had a look at many other prams so i may change my mind.
I feel like such a pig today, i had a massive lunch followed by a quarter of an apple pie with cream and now im going back to get the other quarter!

We don't have any names picked out yet. I think me and my DH are going to have a hard time agreeing on names!

I haven't bought too much myself, just a steriliser that was on special offer in Mothercare and a few sleepsuits. I'm lucky that I already have a cot and moses basket from my DD (just need new mattresses) although I think I might be needing a new pushchair myself, as I think I'll be needing a double one.

For pushchairs I'd recommend is heading to somewhere like a big mothercare or toysrus (babiesrus) and just checking out some of them and seeing what you like, as there are so many of them. We have quite a small car boot so we had to check that the pushchair fitted in the boot, oh and that the car seat fitted our car too. You dont have to buy it then and there and can always check out the best price on the internet afterwards :blush:
 
Thanks for the advice guys. You are right, i really need to test drive a pram before buying it. I need to talk to my OH and make him see some sense!
 
I forgot to ask, i noticed in the second trimester forum there is an August mummies thread and wondered if we have one for us June mummies?
