hey, all baby stuff is bought except playmat and bouncer which we are waiting for OHs mum to give us the money for, then we just need more muslins and a baby sponge, everything else is bought and pram is being delivered by the end of this month!

Im having a home birth so Ive got all the things to go in my bag just in case I need to go into hospital but its not packed yet, moving back in with my mother for 6 months when baby is born so in the next few weeks ill be popping back to get my room and all the babys things washed, unpacked and sorted :-D

Ijust cant wait to finish work now! Go on leave October 29th and it cant come quick enough!

Be interested to see how everyone else is doing

Nearly ready!! We havent had to buy a lot as been given tons of clothes etc... Pram is nearly paid for. Will be delivered Nov 8th. Mom has banned me from buying anything else as baby shower is on the 10th Oct!

Hospital bag still needs sorting...

Pram, car seat, Moses basket, few baby grows, towels, breast pump, steriliser, nappy bin, loads of nappies and muslin got. Nursery furniture arrives tomorrow. Had a week off in august so bought a few bits and washed them all.

Having a home birth so dining room needs emptying for the pool. Really don't feel prepared at all!!!

Oooo, may I stick my head in here? I'm not due 'officially' untill December 4th but im pretty certain that I will be induced at 38 weeks due to my SPD which would mean a mid November baby for me!

Everything is ready here, nursary is done and bags are almost fully packed (I'm hoarding hospital snacks in my bag now!), the only thing that I don't have is a pram and my mum is coming up to buy that for me as soon as she has finished her chemo which should be in the next few weeks! I can't beleive that I could have my baby in less than 10 weeks! It's really scary! I just have to hope that the hospital see my case as one bad enough to induce for, my MW and GP both think that they will, woot!!

My husband has been rearranging the office today so we can fit in the baby furniture (when we buy it )

Going to brave Ikea one night after work I think to take a look and see what sort of stuff they have there. There are some lovely wardrobes/cots etc in Mamas and Papas but they are so expensive!

We made the trip to Ikea today and we have now got the cot, moses basket, wardrobe and chest of drawers...

Still need to get the bedding / blankets etc but can get that all sorted in the next couple of weeks.

Still need to get the pram sorted but think we have decided on the icandy range, so now just need to bite the bullet and actually go and buy it all.

I finally feel as if I am getting somewhere now.
