Still TTC, PPP and waiting to CCC - one down, and more than enough optimism to go around!

Right, so I can't start this thread using anything like..."Here we go ladies!"

So, will have to come up with something completely different....

How about Congratulations Kay!

Thanks Popcorn! I will show dh that.

NatalieJane · 08/04/2008 12:56

LOL Pop, a girl after my own heart

MoosMa · 08/04/2008 13:27

Kays, the baby has to go underneath to start with as that's the lying flat part, but once they can sit up they can go in either seat. DD2 goes in the front now as DD1 chose to go in the back seat - it's easier for her to hop in and out. If you do decide on one, really do wait and get the new model (Vibe) they've changed the things that annoy me about mine.

Also I found it good that DD2 was tucked away in the back, it stopped people breathing over her and poking her (and waking her up) and it's reallt cosy especially in bad weather. And if you look down you can see your new little baby without having to peer

Can you tell I love mine??

NatalieJane · 08/04/2008 13:38

Oooooooh I've got just over 7 mins on my eBay thing, fingers are at the ready to do some serious bidding

I love this bit LOL How sad am I?!!

Moosma, good points about not having people wake the baby up, I might add it on the maybe list after all, not that I have a maybe list for doubles....!

MoosMa · 08/04/2008 13:40

Looky here

And here

And here too

MoosMa · 08/04/2008 13:42

Mine also came with (I expect the new style has something similar) a raincover flap thing to put over the opening at the back which keeps old ladies' noses toddlers' fingers out.

NatalieJane · 08/04/2008 13:43

Is it easy to steer around shops? Doesn't it go to one side when you go up a curb?

NatalieJane · 08/04/2008 13:46

Woooooo hooooooooooooo I won the eBay thing Beat the other bidder as well, god I love this feeling!!!!! LOL

MoosMa · 08/04/2008 13:47

It's very easy to steer as it's really no bigger than most 3 wheelers. It does need a bit of concentration to go up kerbs (like any other 3 wheeler) but it's pretty easy really.

I heart my P&T

MoosMa · 08/04/2008 13:48

Congrats Nat, what was it?

NatalieJane · 08/04/2008 14:01

this, well exactly the same as that, but I got it for £44 brand new in the it's box I feel all excited, not that he can ever use it, at least until the ground defrosts!

NatalieJane · 08/04/2008 14:03

ever even

I think the P&T is growing on me, still not sure, and I don't know where I'd put all the shopping, but then it wouldn't be that long that I need it..... hmmmmmm might go and have a quick look!! LOL

MoosMa · 08/04/2008 14:08

This is the new one

MoosMa · 08/04/2008 14:09

I have panniers for mine, but the new one has a bigger basket underneath anyway.

NatalieJane · 08/04/2008 14:16

OK OK, you have worn me down, it is on the maybe list, the only one on there I might add, although I have just seen the Mutsy duo seat one.....

I am not spending anymore time looking at double buggies, I don't want one, and I will not need one

P.S. the new one is nicer looking, but is that really worth the extra £££'s, having said that it says it is even lighter...... Not that I am thinking about it.......

MoosMa · 08/04/2008 14:26

The most annoying thing about mine is that whoever is sitting in the front seat can stand on the footrest which pushes on the front wheel, stopping it going round! The seats look comfier too

I have to take the back seat off to fold it too (only in 2 toddler mode though, baby and toddler mode folds fine).

MoosMa · 08/04/2008 14:26

Do you think I'll get commission for this?

popcornprincess · 08/04/2008 14:30

ok - i don't really like the P&T but I have to admit that i have used one and it did push nicely. My friend and I used to run with the buggies (when the kids were younger - they are way too heavy now). I ran with my Bugaboo cameleon which was a nightmare as it really isn't designed for that!!! and my friend ran with her P&T. We used to swap buggies and babies half way round to get a good all round work out - IYKWIM

NatalieJane · 08/04/2008 14:32

LOL You should do!

I am thinking I am just going to wait and see, if it takes me 6 months to get pregnant, I should deffo get away with not having to get a double in the first place. If I get pregnant sooner than that, then I think I am just going to have to wait and see what DS2 is like with walking closer to the time. DS1 wouldn't go in his buggy after about 20 months, if DS2 is the same I might get away with it.

kayzisexpecting · 08/04/2008 14:45

I dont like the new one. I think it looks horrible and only comes in 2 colours.

Are really bad headaches common in pregnancy? I didn't have them with ds and I have been getting them since Sunday.

YouCantTeuchThis · 08/04/2008 15:45

still buggies??!!

Kay - very normal, butprobably due to tiredness, hunger or dehydration. I had them and they were always worse if I hadn't eaten enough (or eaten well!) or needed water/a rest.

NatalieJane · 08/04/2008 15:51

Yep me to on the headache front.

I am sure they will bring more colours out by the time any of us are looking to actually buy!

C'mon Teuch, join in the fun, you might need one for the lambs....

Where is Diege, has she done a bloody test yet or what?!! How dare she keep us all in suspence like this?!!

YouCantTeuchThis · 08/04/2008 15:56

ooohhhh, was she meant to be testing today??!!

Has this wagon got a horn? I'll honk 'er...

That should summon her

NatalieJane · 08/04/2008 16:00

No, she is still putting on a shy face and saying she is expected her period any day, but she is late (by last months standards) and she knows she want's to test....!

Honk her again, quick, DS2 is making a funny noise, think it means he want's me to at least look over in his direction....!

happynappies · 08/04/2008 16:01

Hi everyone - haven't posted for ages, but lurk around watching for BFPs... can I ask your advice? Due to start ttc'ing in 4 weeksish, have you been using ovulation sticks? Tbh had never heard of them, but someone mentioned them to me the other day. Fell pg quickly with first, but have no idea when I ov, although seem to have regularish cycle, should I shouldn't I? any views?
