Oh Carnat you beauty!!!

I've been trying to find this for agesss, as I knew it had every possible item you could need on there!!
THANK YOUUU!!!!! xxxxx

 

[Zal88]

oh my god....

surely we don't need all this stuff? lol I really have no clue

I freaked out yesterday about all this baby stuff ahhh lol where to start

 

[babyem]

noo, you don't need all of it, it's just covering all bases! some of it is for when they are a little older x

 

[Lolly85x]

I'd need a bigger house to put all this baby stuff xxx

 

[russellmuscle]

Yeah I wont be getting things like door stoppers and stuff just now as like baby em said some wont need until older but yeah, its a pretty good list - well done baby em for having like everything on it lol!

 

[butterfly12]

this is a really good list. Have you bought a ambertastic anklet. check ambertastic website

 

[babyem]

Yeah I wont be getting things like door stoppers and stuff just now as like baby em said some wont need until older but yeah, its a pretty good list - well done baby em for having like everything on it lol!

I didn't write it! Another lady off PF did, but I Couldn't remember where the thread was and Carnat found it! x

 

[russellmuscle]

I know that, I read that. I was just agreeing with u lol ??

Xxxx

 

[babyem]

haha! Sorry! Just don't want anyone to think I'm saying I made it! lol.

It's much better than the lists on google etc x

 

[russellmuscle]

naaw lol I was saying well done you for having almost everything on the list - its huge!

I showed my mum it yesterday and she said "if you buy everything on this list you wont have any room for the baby" she had me in like 1991 though so obviously MP3's and things werent invented.

Then her and OH had an argument over whether or not I should have spare change in my bag as OH said "no ill bring it with me" and my mums like "but its good to have" I ended up telling them to shut up and put the list away!! lolol xxx

haha!

I'm going to go through it today and see what things we need to get still x

 

[russellmuscle]

I will go through it myself tbh, I did try and recruit my mum to find out what stuff I actually need and things that I can start buying in as obviously Im only 15w so I dont want to buy all big stuff in - my aunts buying my toletries so I dont know whether or not to start with some sleep suits etc Im itching to get the ball rolling.

But it seems if I ask her she will just have an opinion on anything, eg "WHY DO YOU NEED MAGICOOL? or a Hand Held Fan?" I said well Im taking one of those spray bottles with the fan attached, if I get to warm I get moody she replied "your in labour, youll be moody" so there really is no winning with her sometimes shes so old fashioned lol!

And Im taking the effing spray bottle with fan! haha xxx

 

[babyem]

Hahaha! x

 

[tweetyfoo]

Well I've gone through this list and noted the things that I feel I want/need for baby bump .. I'm armed with a credit card and dangerous!
