about what else I need to buy, all i need to get now is a sterliser (bottles come with that) a few more vests and babygrows, crib sheets and a car seat. wow. i cant believe that theres not much more to buy! thats a weight off my mind, was just going through everything with mum :) x
how are you ladies doing, have you got everything/started your shopping? or waiting a while before you start? x
 
well since i found out on Friday that we are having a girl :cheer: i brought some stuff today :lol: ,

like scratch mittens, baby grows, vest, and a cute dressing grown which was so lovely with slippers :roll:

and that's it getting some more stuff tomorrow :lol:

and then after that I'll get the cot, etc all the big things later on :cheer:
 
awwcongrats! have u thought of any names :)X i got my scan on wednesday, so fingers crossed that the legs arent crossed! lol :)
 
thanks hun.... i knew i was having a girl.. when the woman said your having a little girl.. i screamed you should of hread me :lol:

but i have thought of a couple but i don't know where to being :think:

good luck for you.. that is the best scan at 20 weeks i'm telling you :lol:
 
lol i need to get almost everything and ive only got 8 weeks to go :lol: .

other people have got us stuff do we dont need to buy much ourselves.

Mum bought our pram today :cheer: its got a car seat with it so i guess thats two things off the list.

We are being given my nieces old crib ( she was only born last march so its basically brand new), we have a steriliser with a few bottles, loads of neutral coloured clothes wish we could by pink or blue :( , birth to potty pack of cloth nappies. and thats all so far!

i just rely on everyone else reminding us of what we still need to get (lol im so unprepared) :D .

i was soo nervous about the Scan too.. but i got seen straight away and the woman didn't really have to take ages to look for her, because shes grown so much.. the last time i saw here was 15 weeks and 3day.. but she's big and everything is it's correct place, i was so worried that they was something wrong with her :pray:

but she's all good... didn't move much but i think she was sleeping, she moved her hand..ahh bless

we got a pram & car seat from my mum, my sister got us a cot, a baby-bath, a sterilizer and a vibrating-chair-thingy and various people have got us clothes; i'm not sure what other things we need but is it true that we're entitiled to £500 from the government for baby stuff? (on top of the £250 for the trust fund, i mean) how do we get that, does anyone know?
 
yep!! u ge tthe 500maternity grant if ur on jobseekers or nt much income?. im on jobseekers atm n wen im 26 or 28 weeks? im not 2 sure i have to sign onto the social n i will be entitled to the maternity grant. i get mine in april :) i dont really understand much about it. i asked at my local job office where you have to go to sign, but they are so stuck up and mean and they look down on u etc not very helpful at all, so id rather fone them :)

when i was pg with my first baby i had to change from jsa onto income support when i was 28 or 29 weeks and you can apply for the maternity grant when you are 29 weeks pg and up to 3 months after baby is born

I don't have any of the big items yet, and I'm holding off on bedsheets until hopefully I find out the sex. :D
 
Wow, you have nearly finished your shopping. That's great to be so well prepared. :) You can put your feet up and relax during the last half of your pregnancy.

I know I'm having a little boy but I haven't bought anything yet. Not even a little vest! I don't know how much longer I'll wait but probably until at least 20+ weeks.

My nan has said she'd buy the pram (hoping to get a combi with car seat and carrycot). My sister has a cot we can have. It's been in her loft for 12 years! So we'll need a new mattress for that. :lol:

what qualifies as not much income? i'm on £14k a year b4 tax which i dont think is a lot but i live with my boyf who is on £19.5k a year; would they count his as well? x
