I'm Currently Feeling: | Have you started buying bits.... Hello *waves*
I was just wondering if you have started buying bits and if not when you plan on starting?
We have brought loads of bibs, I keep saying "you can never have enough" and we have brought some sleepsuits and vests, socks and little booties all in white and neutral colours, but we have held fire for now until we find out the sex of our little one.......
I can't wait to start buying the appropriate colours!!! I think it is well exciting Me & OH actually agree on clothes 
As for the bigger stuff I want the nursery sorted first so everything can go straight in there, but we are in the process of choosing what it is we want, we have chose a cot and other nursery furniture, but have yet to get it xx |

I'm Currently Feeling: | Hey,
I started buying things like bibs and muslin sqaures and stuff about a month ago and some family bought me some baby clothes and things. but this weekend i started to buy some bigger things, we bought 2 changing mats (we live in a 3 story house so one for upstairs and one for downstairs) a bath support, some towels and 2 bath boxes, also some babygrows and things  its all becoming more real now we're moving furnature around and things ready for when the baby arrives. getting more and more excited by the day. |

I'm Currently Feeling: | We are going to start buying the nappies, wipes and any other bits you need that work out exspensive weekly in the shopping now, so we can have a breather when LO arrives and not have to worry for a while!
I can't wait to start shopping for the bigger stuff!! |

I am a member of the club, I forgot about the triple points at boots, only got my welcome letter last week too !!!
Ever since I have had my DD I have always used wipes I think they are useful for so many things, not to mention kids - but now I will have to stock pile!!
I am not a fan of huggies nappies either.........I would always only buy pampers, I had so many leaks with DD it was a nightmare, I wondered how they sold them, as I have NEVER had any luck with them?!? I swore by the pampers Active fit, they were ace!!!! 10/10!! |
