Feeling a bit lonely this morning. Woke up at 5:30am and felt completely alone. Not the first time, but as my body is changing i'm getting some (hopefully irrational!) thoughts about how this is the last time my body will look vaguely youthful and how I won't know if anything has, ahem, changed down there until someone actually wants to touch me again. Which may well be some time! I think I just woke up really wanting to be held and in need of a hug and some affection. Any solutions for this weepy moobag?

Morning Violet (waves).
Sorry to hear about your cig lighter - I seem to remember reading the fuses are actually fairly simple to change - you just get the same colour one and the fuse box should be somewhere around the stereo (check manual). I think you literally take the burnt one out and click new one in....but understand it's probably not something you'll be faffing with while trying to get somewhere! Just buy some chocolate. Works every time.

I'm making bunting today. Made some for my nursery and had a few people asking if I can make more for them to buy :)

I got a second hand bugaboo Cam from a friend a few weeks back - footmuff/parasol/changebag etc all included and just need to get the car seat now. Bit of a bargain at £350 :) Which ones are you guys looking at?

Oh you clever girl! I wouldn't have a clue. Cue me calling my dad up at 7.30am in tears pmsl. I'm driving the car to Ireland on Tuesday so I kinda need the satnav lol. My brother is going to fix it for me tomorrow if I buy him dinner so it's all good.

I was looking at the bugaboo's but I went for the icandy peach instead. What colour is yours? And have you seen the Bugaboo donkey they showed the other day?

Yes, I wouldn't want to be abroad without SatNav!
I thought I was going to get the iCandy Cherry for a long time (thought the Bugaboo was a bit yummy mummy tbh) but when my friend had hers going so cheaply I decided to go with it and save a few hundred :) Do love the iCandy's though, great range. My one is black but I also got some yellow summery covers for it on eBay as you can mix n' match.
Isn't Donkey a strange thing to call a buggy! Makes me think of a poor strained animal with droopy ears!

Just got back from town where my friend convinced me to go to Pizza Hut for the buffet (both pg). We ate an enormous amount so I think we got great value for money. And the pasta had spinach, broccoli and peas in it so although I felt like an oinker, I like to think I got a few vitamins in there too Wink

Sounds like exactly what the baby needs Fab! How do you make the bunting?
Have you got any breastfeeding info from your MW? If not I'd ask her, I've got a billion leaflets and things and a DVD.

I am officially on mat leave now so I can get my teeth into sorting the nursery and getting ready for baby. Can't wait to wash all her little clothes and hang them on the line :) (am aware the novelty will wear off when I'm having to change her 6 times a day!)
