How are all you new mummies doing?

[Jojo84]

I've been looking on gumtree for baby items that I need, cos I have no money to buy new items and you get some great bargains on there! So I'm sure you'd be able to easily sell it

If you lived near me I'd give you my basket.

Have you tried freecycle?

 

[Pumpkin9]

Free cycle is great. What about local nearly new NCT sales?

Varies. I can't do it on my own. One of is has to hoover the other distract him

There's never 2 of us in when I Hoover. I'm just moving him to another side of the room... Doesn't matter if he's feat tacked or not.

 

[Kaedin]

Need to register with another GP now as I no longer live in the same area. I need her moses basket from my ex, a highchair a walker and a monitor. Gahh

 

[Kaedin]

My ex is saying he'll give me moses basket back but will put Hayley to sleep in cot when at his.

Will that mess her up if she's in a cot at his then a moses basket at mine? Will that increase the risk of SIDS? He doesn't have any bedding for it, but what would he really need - can he just use his own bed sheet (ensuring its tucked in ect) and a blanket for on top of her?

 

[Toria111]

Kaedin, I wouldn't use a bed sheet. Get him to buy a fitted sheet and maybe a sleeping bag, then when she's at each of your places she can just use the same sleeping bag. Why can't he just pack up her monitor/ bottles etc whenever she comes to you? Does he realise he's punishing Hayley just to be mean to you?

 

[Toria111]

Jojo, I've got a Hoover upstairs that's old and has a different noise to the downstairs one. It freaks Emma out. But the downstairs one she doesn't even notice.

We've never owned a monitor, we only have 6 bottles and when he takes her I need to give them to him. Last time he demanded her prep machine, but since he's stolen from me and been an absolute **** next time he has her he can use a kettle and ill give him a flask of cooled boiled water again. I'm not spending ages packing everything for him.

 

[Mummybexee]

I like your style!!

Has he given you her clothes and stuff now?

 

[Toria111]

Yeah that's rediculous wanting to take the prep machine each time

 

[Kaedin]

I like your style!!

Has he given you her clothes and stuff now?

Nope, said he's keeping them. Yet when I was there packing my stuff he said I could take them all and even the highchair. Only later he refused and as he's changed the locks I can't even go in to get it myself.

 

[Jojo84]

You really need to contact the landlord if it's a joint lease.

 

[Kaedin]

We don't really have a letting agreement anymore as our letting agency stopped renting properties, however; our landlord just rented it to us directly.

So I phoned him and left my number with his wife, then phoned again and left a voicemail just letting him know I no longer have access to the property and there was no damaged when I left. Incase my ex decides to break or wreak the place
