Cath, i bet there was loads of posts on here to catch up on, i've been a bit chat-happy

i feel exhausted at work but will have to last until 22nd may because i have to train someone new xx

 

[ClaireyF]

thanks gail xx

I dont think it matters, I just think u know when u got the right man! we were only 18 getting togther and went to uni etc together, so still had a 'life'. That is a way for a dinner date claire!!!

I said that in my first post claire!

Im already training someone up...........so it dont matter if I go off earlier (didnt plan it or anything!)

 

[Rosella]

yeh, i know what you mean. I was beginning to think i would never meet 'the one' and settle down. So nice to be happy now!!

 

[Baci]

Hey everyone :wave:

Looks like I've a lot of catching up to do!

Been out shopping this morning. Didnt get anything for bubs but picked up a few cardigans for Violet in Primark for £2 and £3 each on sale. Bargain.

Didnt get anything for bubs as I have plenty of babygros and vests now in both newborn and 0-3 so they will keep me going for a while.

Guess I better start thinking about packing a hospital bag soon!

Am debating whether to get an amby hammock as apparently they are good for settling LO's. Am a little scared I'm going to have another bad sleeper like Violet!

DH is back in the air again today and I dont think he lands til 7 ish our time. Will be glad when the wedding is over and he's on his way home again.

 

[ClaireyF]

i didnt know what an amby hammock was, just googled it and it looks so sweet, do they sleep in that all the time at first or just to settle them and then move them?? i'm so clueless.

Primark is such a bargain, we dont have one near us xx

 

[Baci]

Hi Claire!

I think they sleep in it. It's meant to be usable up to about 12 months I think. Would really like to find somewhere I can go and see one to check it out.

Primark is great for bargains, was most disappointed that there was no point in looking around the ladies section! Well, I guess I could have looked at shoes maybe!

 

[Rosella]

Aww - the hammock is too cute!! doesn't the baby's back need to be flat though?

 

[:D happy D:]

hi guys,

well how are we all?
i'm ok, hayfever has been ok today, so no need to carry my loo roll round with me looking like a blooming idiot. kids are playing out in the garden on their slides ! loving the sunshine, never seen them so happy.
mum and dad have offered to have ellie and grace for the night on thursday as they have an inset day, going to take them swimming ! so jake suprised me last night with theatre tickets and a posh meal before !! can't decide what to wear as bump is so big i look like a blooming elephant in all my clothes. might treat myself to a new dress.

baci, i was debating about the amby hammock, but have read such mixed reviews i decided to wait and see whether any friends or anyone on here had used one.really hope the time flies by and your husband will be home befor you know it !

alex

 

[Baci]

Mixed reviews? Hmm - off I go googling.....

 

[ClaireyF]

Hi carol, have you managed to find any reviews yet?i think you'll always find some bad reviews about things x

 

[Baci]

Found some positive and some negative reviews. So I'm confused!

 

[ClaireyF]

maybe you should start a thread on here and see if anyone has used one... xx

 

[mrsholmes]

Hi alex! oh god I forgot its nearly hayfever time! are we allowed hayfever tablets and id say def get a new dress!

looks good carol, I thought babys had to lie flat too, but im planning on using a sling during the day for LO to sleep (hopefully) several reason main one being the cats and if im out the kitchen I couldnt leave a newborn un attended

we just chip shops tea and I cant move, tesco also delivered our shopping so nice easy night

I think ive got everything for LO now!!

claire what u doing about nightites etc for hospital my friend said get bigger nighties cheap from asda/tesco etc but they are too short cos im quite tall!! ive got some pjs maternity long length from next but I want something cheap in case they get wrecked!

I love primark too!

 

[ClaireyF]

i think i'm gonna get a nighty from matalan or somewhere cheap and just get a larger size, i might look in primark when we go down to MIL, i'll give them a try on and see about the length, i dont fancy wearing pjs straight after the birth, ouch!! x

 

[mrsholmes]

ive got 2 from primark 16-18 and they are like t-shirts! I want something to my knees really!

Nicky just been nosing at your pics ive been to a few butlins weekend they are mad!

lol if you want something to your knees maybe try bhs or somewhere like that, although they might look a bit granny-ish IYKWIM are you going to take a dressing gown in with you? do you have a tk maxx near you, they might have some longer ones... x
