TBH I haven't front carried at all as we've not had it that long (took DD for an inteview at Leeds Met & DH decided in his wisdom that we didn't need to take the pushchair so we ended up buying a back carrier from Mothercare which doesn't adjust and so completely swamps my 5'3 frame so I got the ergo for me - as well as the fact that I wasn't overkeen on DS being hoiked around suspended by his crotch and preferred the sitting down position of the ergo)

The folded blanket idea sounds good actually. I've never been overly confident with the material sling (being short there just seems to be sooooo much material - but TBH it's probably a practice thing though - I'm lazy )

Mine was £280 including the rain cover iirc

RGPargy · 03/07/2007 22:10

Choudru - Yes exactly that! DP wasn't impressed and if he could have got any further away from it he would have done - he was practically climbing the wall to get away lol.

Loopy - No extra activities here - he was p!ssed off!

littleoldme · 03/07/2007 22:33

I'm working and I'm bored - la la la .

RGPargy · 03/07/2007 22:34

Cant help you out tonight i'm afraid, but tomorrow night i'm working til about midnight so i'll be on here AAAALLLLLLL night!!

littleoldme · 03/07/2007 22:40

Bugger it. I'm off to bed. Why working so late RG?

choudru · 03/07/2007 22:44

Littleoldme - well come over here and help me pack.

RG - hope you made up with DP. I just had a barney with DH. Even managed to involve P&T although I can't for the life of me remember why?!

He's gone off to bed in a mood. Will go and give him a cuddle in a bit to make up.

Loopy - commiserations about the house. You sound far more level-headed about it than I would be!

sparklygothkat · 03/07/2007 23:58

can I add my growth scans to the list? Am having another scan on the 25th, when I will be finding out the sex.

Kind of enjoying having a noticable bump - looking pg not fat - but bump not big enough to be uncomfortable. Would happily stay like this for next 18 wks but feel that is unlikely.

RGPargy · 04/07/2007 10:43

LittleOldMe - Just doing some overtime tonight. I always start to panic when i've done no overtime coz i'm normally always working late when i can - the money is really worth the late night!

Choudru - Yeah all fine and dandy with DP. We never fell out as such, but he went very quiet as it totally freaked him out when he found it. Poor thing!!

Loopy - hehehe no worries, must be the hormones!

SGK - Yes, put your next scan on the list! We want to know if you've got a pink one or a blue one!

As for looking pg, i still dont look pg to strangers. Maybe just a little bit to those that know me, but I spose that's the price you pay for being lardy lol.

Ugh, cant wait for this week to be over and for us to move. Although we've exchanged, i think this is the most stressful part of moving - all the packing and boxes of crap everywhere!! It's funny because i said to DP the other day that having loads of boxes etc around the house, particularly in the bedroom, was really disturbing my "chi". I'm not really into that sort of thing, but it really does unhinge me to have such clutter etc in the bedroom. Is anyone else like that with mess?

muppetgirl · 04/07/2007 11:31

Hi all, I tried to read all the thread but it takes ages!

loopy -Sorry for loosing the house
Sparkly- Good luck on the growth scan I have mine in 2 weeks

Just wanted to ask -my bump at its biggest point is 39inches, anyone else around that??

RGPargy · 04/07/2007 12:40

How are you measuring that? With the tape measure going around you or from pelvis to under your boobs, e.g.?

muppetgirl · 04/07/2007 12:43

No round my back and over the largest part of my bump at the front.

(I am too big for dates though was jsut interested to hears others' sizes!)

RGPargy · 04/07/2007 13:29

Ah right. No one's measurements will be the same tho as it would all depend on how big or small you are pre-pregnancy

Pixiefish · 04/07/2007 13:44

Been to the midwife this afternoon and all appears to be well

RGPargy · 04/07/2007 14:03

Sparklygoat -can i ask about your growth scan -is it because the baby is big/small?

Mine is because lo is too big for dates by at least 2 weeks (abdomen is 3 weeks +6 out!!)

sparklygothkat · 04/07/2007 14:33

Baby is bang on size for dates, but DS and Dd2 both were small for dates, DS actually didn't grow for 4 weeks between 28-32 weeks, and the hospital think that my body is the problem, so have to have growth scans.
