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

I've been looking at p&t's Hauck are bringing out a travel system version. I have a Graco deluxe type one and it's huge and heavy. I'm not keen on a side by side as you can't get them through some shop door ways. the P&T's fold dead small shame about the cost.
 
Hi everyone,

I am new to this site and this whole pregnancy thing too :) I am due July 20th, 2012 and we found out yesterday at our anatomy scan that the baby is totally healthy (so far so good) and its a GIRL!!!! Hope everyone is doing well and I look forward to sharing experiences and stories with everyone. I do have one question for anyone that would like to respond. With so many warnings about crib , it seems that everyone is still using them. I do agree the cribs are prettier with them and I know many people use them with no problems. What are your thoughts/ feelings on this? I am not judging anyone that used or will use one. Many of my friends have but I have read in almost all of my printed literature and in parenting magazine etc that they shouldn't be used.
 
what's wrong with a crib and do you mean the british or american version?

congratz on the baby Girl
 
monring allllll!!

man did i have a weird dream last night, dreamt that I went into labour at 32 weeks, went ot hospital with my mom there, and OH (Vaguely remember him there haha) but it wasnt painful and taking ages to get to any progress stage, so I decided I would go for a walk on my own, My gran was there tooo (She passed away last year so weird she would be there in the flesh) anyway, while walking realised as I was 32 weeks I never did my hospital bag and had nothing with me!! So I spotted a mothercare just up the road from the hospital and was zooming around there trying to remember everything I needed and I couldnt find nappies!!

it was the weirdest dream,

thought would share that lol

Welocm flagirl we have the same due date!

I plan on using a cot, is that what you mean by a crib?

Welcome! We call your crib a cot here in the UK! A crib is a different thing - like a miniature version that usually rocks. Do you mean the bumper/bedding pads for them to make them look pretty? We won't be using them either - not work the risk!

Mosnippy you strange person. I'm not packing until 36weeks! Not tempting fate.

molly I like the P+Ts but the toddler has to go in the back seat and cant' see out :-( my LO would hate that. I can't find anything to suit us!
 
I know weird to the bone lol :) I did wake up going WTF!!! Lol
 
Mosnippy you strange person. I'm not packing until 36weeks! Not tempting fate.

I packed mine at 30 weeks with my son and went overdue lol...i'd rather be safe than sorry to be fair!! Though having it packed means the weeks drag because you're then completely prepared and just waiting for it to happen.
 
have a look on the P&t site it's only when u have 2 toddlers the bigger 1 goes on the bottomi'd expect them walk a bit by then so easier. plus the fold so small they can like or lump it lol

I've actually just bought a pre packed maternity bag for £15 (flash sale on bounty). It's a really nice bag comes with a full pack of newborn nappies and wipes, maternity pads, breast pads, shampoo, conditioner body wash, tooth brush, tooth paste, hair bobbles and lip balm. BARGAIN. Glad I got one just as it started as I just looked again and they've all gone lol (there were only 200).
 
ohhh have to share a little awwww heart melting moment for me!

OH doesnt over do the enthusiam for baby.. he has his moments, and last night, we watching telly and i always have my budha belly hanging out, its far more comfy haha anyway he snuggled up to me and just lay there rubbing and holding my belly... i just wanted to well up..thought that was the nicest thing to do... love it when he touches my bump
 
Awwwe that's so sweet Mosnippy.

I love it when OH does it...he doesn't do it often and last weekend he put his hand on my bump in the night and whispered "kick me baby...come on". It was so lovely. I love his soppy moments.
 
aw me tooo! actually my cat was on my lap and OH was trying to get baby to kick cat haha he has a love hate relationship with my cats haha

just a big mush balllll when it comes to dads and babies!
 
I think the baby is slowly stealing my intelligence lol. I keep getting so many things completely wrong...things i've been able to do for years...like counting!!! I looked at my ticker today and thought that can't be right 18 weeks and 5 days? But I'm not 19 weeks until Friday...completely forgetting that there's 7 days in a week not 6 lol. I did exactly the same last week lol. And not being able to spell words I've been spelling for years.

God damn you baby brain.

for work, i actually have post it notes for everything all over my wall otherwise i forget! the smallest thing that i did without thinking before baby!

its crazy lol i often put stuff in the fridge when they meant to go into the microwave for heating/cooking, and then go to the microwave looking for it and confused as to why its not there! and realise i never even put it in there in the first place!

so funny tho!
 
Oh girls I know what you mean with the baby brain, I seriously thought it wasn't gonna hapen to me but on monday i went to the store with my mom bought some clothes for my son and then went to the store next door the lady at the register ask me for my bag (they do it at some stores to keep people from stealing I guess) so I got some things I needed, pay, went to have lunch with my mom enjoyed a beautiful afternoon, by the time I got home and started unloading the things I bought I realized I didn't have the bag with my son's clothes, I forgot it at the store!!!! I felt sad, i kept aking my OH why did it happen? at the end my mom and dad went to get it and I got it back LOL...

On the other hand I am very excited as my scanis tomorrow and I just can't wait :) :) fingers crossed for a boy :)
