[3 girlies]

im going to have a nice bubble bath & then chill out when the girls are in bed. im so glad its friday tomorrow. Been a long week!

 

[AimeeM]

I bet it has, sounds like you had such a rough time with being ill but i bet you feel so thankful to be getting back to yourself again!

 

[AimeeM]

Ok i just wrote a list of what we still need to get:

Monitor,
Mattress,
sheets/blankets,
bath,
towels/sponges,
snowsuit,
mittens,
changing matt,
play matt.

That is all i can think that we need at the mo. I don't think it is too much really i suppose we got a fair bit. How is everyone else getting on with buying stuff?

 

[3 girlies]

definately, it feels good to be getting better. I cant wait till my 4d scan on the 22nd so i know shes ok, then hopefully it will be a boring wait till shes born lol

i need to get the stuff for my hospital bag but as far as baby bits are concerned i'm nearly done, could do with a few bibs & socks etc but gonna wait till the sales in jan for that.

I know, i always seem to end up buying baby clothes! there are so many nice clothes though it is hard to resist!

 

[Beautywithin]

i was in next the other day, and seriously i could have brought the whole boys section, they have a nice selection of boys clothes in there unlike other places

iv even started to buy 12-18 months.....

anyone started xmas shopping? its really stressing me out, me and OH arnt buying each other anything, so i dont need to worry about that, my friend thinks its madness, but im well past the stage of wanting something to open on xmas day, when you have kids think you would rather see there happy faces! tho to make it that bit more enjoy able it would help if i could have the odd glass of wine! which i know you can have a glass, but i wont.... hope he is here befor 14th feb, me and OH have planned that as our first proper night out x

 

[3 girlies]

i miss a glass of wine, especially when the christmas tree is up, but im the same, i wont have any till shes born!
I need to get a few bits for the girls stockings but all my big stuff is done & just needs wrapping!

i forgot that i need a baby swinging chair but i'll get that in the sales too. Still got everything from Roxie, takes the fun out of it a bit though.

 

[hayley x]

bloody hell so much for being able to keep up with this one Hope everyones ok I still have loadssss to get baby, you all sound so organised. I need a nursery package, new mattress for the crib, moses basket, bouncer, wipes, things for hospital bag (got on really well with mothercare's maternity towels as they had wings and felt well protected ) Need a monitor... no end of things. We arent entitled to the grant so have to try and find the money from somewhere in time, to think she could be here from the end of Jan is scarey!

Hello everyone!

I cant keep up with everyone!

3Girlies, I love the name Kenadie Grace! Although I like the meaning behind Frankee, sometimes I think thats more important! I'm not telling anyone my names (well other than you lot lol) as I cant be bothered with the opinions, its my child I will call them what I like thanks!

So tonight I had my first antenatal class, well, that was an experience! EVERYONE was with their OHs as expected, I felty really tearful at one point as I looked round and they were all holding hands etc, but its just cos I miss mine soo much at the moment. Then, she described the labour process in depth with pictures. I was traumatised, I thought they would ease us in gently not show us that on the first night lol. I am so niave! I am really pleased I bought them though (it was the NCT ones) as the topics they will be covering are really useful and she did tell me a lot I didnt know already.

As for buying things, well you all know my phobia so my list is pretty large still!

 

[3 girlies]

pc, i didnt do the antenatal classes at all, i was in denial lol, now i know whats coming (within reason) & im not scared. i just want it over with. Must be so hard for you, i take paul for granted being here everytime i need him,

 

[3 girlies]

i have antenatal today, hoping that everything is boring!! just realised its friday the 13th!!!

 

[Beautywithin]

Morning- its pissing it down here, and i gota drop my lil monkee off to school!! gunna get soaked

3girlies- i no its your mum and all, but seriously if you and OH like the name, then stick with it, she isnt going to exactly want nothing to do with your lil girl, just because she dont like the name you have chosen, seriously people can give there opinions, its when they try and put you off that pisses me off!

 

[nervouspains]

Morning ladies!

Well a delightful start to my day!
The air man comes in to work, does the biggest, warmest, smellest fart then stands and talks to em! EUGHHHHHHHHHH I dont want to breathe in your fumes you stinky fat man! Yuck it was nasty!
So I ran back to my desk and sprayed myself in perfume lol.

I think I have most things now

I just still need a moses basket- My friend is buying this for me
Travel System (ordering in Jan)
Bouncy chair & bath- a friend is giving to me

I have got 2 packs of newborn nappies, but I will wait until he is here incase he needs bigger sized ones.

Oooh I am excited! This is mad! I cant beleive we are talking about this lol, it still doesnt seem real that I am actually going to have a baby!

I will buy playmat etc when he is here, so I can take him out and show him off lol

I also need to buy things for my hospital bag- think OH adn I will buy a nice bag in the sales in Jan then I will get ready to pack, god its so exciting, only 2 weeks until the end of Nov, then xmas time, then a few weeks later- we will be waiting for our babies to arrive!!

Glad you had a well invovled 'experience' at class PC lol.
I asked my mw if OH should come and she said 'hardly anyone brings there OH's, only aobut 3 of them come along' ...They have a father class which is 1 indeepth evening course just for daddies to be so I think OH my go to that, but I know he will prob attend the other classes with me...Well if he can get time off work that is

Is anyone going to look round the delivary ward?
Think we migh go on a tour in the early new year.

3girlies- If YOU and DH like the name- its no one elses business!
Just like my mum and the name Max- its a dogs name!...Well, no, actually, its your grandsons name so get used to it, so now she has and she calls him Max now lol.

Bw- Weather is sh!t here as well, apaprently they think we are going to get prehaps 3inch of rain!!

Anyone got anything planned for the weekend?
Im not doing much tomorrow, might see my friend, and then sunday we are going shopping to find a dress for my xmas party lol xxx

 

[Beautywithin]
