May mummies and rainbows to be :)

[missyeovil]

I've decided I will treat myself to an icandy with this baby - they've always been out of my price range before but I keep managing to magic money up for prams and car seats haha. Have signed up for their black Friday emails and told DH to do the same...it's his payday too! X

 

[lisey]

Go for it missyeovil. I know people will think we are mad for the amount we are going to spend on our pushchair too but I don't care lol. We love it and it will be used for a couple of years anyway. I would rather pay more for one that lasts than buy a cheaper one that could potentially break and then have to buy another xx

Exciting! I think if you want it and can afford it then go for it, it is noone elses business how much you spend on anything.

I think we are going to go with a new pram for 'good' and get a second hand one for up on the farm. I can't see it would be practical to be cleaning mud and cow poo off the wheels every time we wanted to go somewhere 'clean'. Also the smell of farm kind of lingers. I have a feeling I'm also going to need lots of changes of clothes to keep the smell out of the house...

Aye my first pram 8 years ago was about £600 which was expensive back then but we used it until my son was about 5 in fact when he was 7 and ill and hubby had the car he went in it to take him to the doctors! We paid for it with bingo winnings lol. When I found out I was pregnant I joked and took my mum to bingo to get her used to being a granny but err..... we loved it and ended up going every Wednesday lol. I won enough for the travel system and also won 3 blenders...... I seem to be lucky at winning blenders lol. I think I now own 7.... I only paid for 1 lol.

 

[lisey]

That sounds like a good idea snowbee, no point getting a new one that will be covered in mud xx

 

[lisey]

Lol ery, at least you will have a blender ready for weaning xx

 

[Eryinera]

[Eryinera]

Oh I love that. Who cares about what you 'need'?! Lol

I am constantly looking too, I love browsing xx

 

[Eryinera]

It's so pretty isn't it (it comes with pink trims too lol)
I found a gorgeous double buggy..... don't get me thinking lol.....

 

[lisey]

It really is lovely xx

 

[Eryinera]

Omg not only did I forget to go to work yesterday I forgot to go to parents evening too! Wtf I totally failed yesterday x

 

[nikkix86]

I got one bounty pack at my booking in with a form for the mum to be one so I went and picked that up from asda lol x

 

[lisey]

Ery, pregnancy brain has taken over. I constantly feel like I have forgotten something, not sure if I have or not cos I can't remember lol.
I feel robbed, my midwife didn't give me anything! I will mention at my next appointment xx

 

[Eryinera]

Yea I didn't get mine either!! Hoping I get it next time. What's jn the mum 2 be pack?

 

[Emily0505]

Bounty packs have a lot less in them compared to what they did when I was pregnant with Cam.

We didn't choose Cam's pram. We got literally everything from clothes to the moses basket given to us. We got given a full travel system which was great but it was so bulky and heavy and hard to manoeuvre. I'm looking for something light, easy to manoeuvre with one hand and easy to collapse. Oh and hubby wants something with big wheels!

I do quite like the cossatto travel systems too and they come in such lovely designs and colours too!

[lisey]

Men and their wheels lol, I am sure my OH said that too xx

 

[Emily0505]

Lol! I'm not quite sure why he wants big wheels but he also agreed on it being lightweight and manoeuvrable so I think we're on the same page.

People must think I'm weird as I keep finding myself just staring at their prams when I'm out! Lol!

XX

 

[Eryinera]

Lol I do that instead of gooing at the babies I'm like "hey aw cute baby... how does the pram handle? Basket space big enough? Does it come with cup holders? On a scale on 1 to 10 how would you rate your satisfaction with your pram choice?" Lol

 

[Emily0505]

I haven't actually asked anyone yet, but I came close today! Lol!

I'm sure they would understand though, having recently been through the process of deciding on and buying a pram!!
