Summer Peaches... going to be ripe in late July/early August!!

Hope this is the one. panic not on the cot. we have no mattress for the crib but if they arrived in the next 10 weeks they would prob be having a wee stay over at the hospital and OH's running off to Ikea or somewhere similar
 
I know lol all we have is clothes (and a shit load of them) and feeding equipment, travel system and my sister is buying us a moses basket. Still panicking a bit lol. But I am keeping faith that this will be it for us and we'll have a house soon x
 
Mosnippy, I found them why are cot pillows so damn small. My little girl has a proper size one in her cot after a chesty cold she loves it ahhhhh nothing goes together might have to get her a proper one
 
Lol yeah I thought they looked rather small but figured what did I know lol they probably meant to be small etc for suffocation fears etc
 
But you can easily get pillow cases to match a full size pillow
 
Think the recommendation is no pillows til age 1 :-)

My LO has a normal adult pillow but it's a thin cheapy one, I put it under the sheet and she has her sleeping bag and a blanket and a few teddies in the cot.

Been to see midwife. She didn't think I had true SPD as it goes away when I rest but basically said my pelvis is ruined after the birth of my LO and just to rest it as much as I can and it'll go away when baby is here.

Bump measuring a perfect 25cm! But I have growth scans every 3 weeks starting at 28weeks as my LO was "borderline" low birth weight (5lb8) Arggh. I hoped to avoid the damn scans this time as all they did was make me worried and force me into induction last time. Ah well.

I have so much stuff still to buy!! Need my cot (well getting the Graco Petite Bassinet), double pram (umbrella for carboot, tandem for in the flat), carseat + base, wrap/sling for breastfeeding and running after toddler, more clothes and just dummies and I think we're done!

Guess what I'm doing this Saturday?? Going on a Primark shopping spree!!! Yay.
 
lol yep guideline is the one year point I think everything is. Abs has be weaned for way to long now and going strong. sat early and was moving about if not in a crawling motion and generally rolling about so she likes to be early on these things just taking her time about walking at the mo. it's just a skinny adult one just enough to relieve the pressure with a chesty cold she sleeps like a dream on it I'm not daft lol.

AH we're getting Graco electra travel cot on saturday found that one for £30 2nd hand snap up a bargain when you can I'm thinking
 
stardust I just got back from Midwife too! I am measuring 27 haha.. oooppsss and all she says is Good sized baby you have there.... this makes me panic haha!!

i have a growth scan at 28 weeks too..but not every 3 weeks.. at 32 weeks again... i think if they specifically looking for problems would stress me to!

i would take that as a sign to sit back and put your feet up so OH/Hubby can do more haha docters orders!!
 
funny I asked OH at ikea about the pillows.. I still said I didnt think you had pillows for babies cots.. and he just look glazed..Ok he was having a heated moment with his eldest daughter via text so dont think he was fully with me at the moment.. lol well i got it.. just to complete the set and will remove etc as baby gets bigger and sleeps in cot lol..

i have all my big stuff just more clothes and little things like bath seat and bouncer/rocker chair.. and all the little periphanalia for baby...
 
I measured perfect at my midwife which I love because everyone keeps telling me how enormous I am and how it'll be a huge baby yet baby has measured right on time both scans and my bump is measuring right on time so I'm thinking she'll be a similar size to Toby probably a little bigger which sure isn't a little baby but it's not 10lb+ which is what everyone keeps telling me she'll be x
 
I've got MW next wednesday so will see what I'm measuring then. I had a massive growth spurt a few weeks ago and felt huuuuge! Now feeling smaller so think I've got used to it and its slowed down x
 
Just to make you all laugh I now have my shifts for the next few weeks and only 14 working days til mat leave!

Well holiday then Mat leave
 
That's ace lol. 9 weeks tomorrow until i leave for maternity leave wahoo so excited.

Well ladies we loved the house its a maisonette an upstairs so gonna be a little faffy but the rooms are nice and big an its only 480 a month so really hoping we get it. Keeping the faith that it goes well this time x
 
fingers crossed just realised I didn't put deodorant on this AM!
 
Nearly threw a baking tray in the bin. I've literally been fighting with burnt bits of potato for about an hour! urggg! Now I'm craving diet coke because I saw it on supersize vs superskinny lol
