Like many of you I'm starting to browse all the sales for baby bargains! Maybe we could share our finds here?

First up, John Lewis have got a whopping £200 off the 2015 Uppababy Vista! www.johnlewis.com/uppababy-vista-2015-pushchair-and-carrycot-denny-red/p1789270

I've also found some good deals on the Babies R Us and Kiddicare sites.

There is an extra 10% off the Isabella Oliver sale too.

I'm on the lookout for:
Babyzen Yoyo
Bed nest
Medela Freestyle
Tripp Trapp newborn set

Please post your sale bargains below!

Jpeg where are you planning to keep the Chico changing unit/bath? I was thinking of getting one with a bath but got put off when a friend said that the baby will kick and splash at around 3 months so won't be useful. We have a wetroom we could put this Chico foldable one in though!

lucieloos · 02/01/2017 22:31

Name, I don't think it's as good as the mothercare one? For an extra £5 you seem to get a lot more accessories with mothercare?

NameChange30 · 02/01/2017 22:33

purple It was me who ordered the chicco changing table / bath... Tbh I hadn't really thought that far (!) but I guess we could use it in the baby's room for changing and in the bathroom for bathing... if it fits in the bathroom!! I figured I would order it and see what it's like, can always return if I change my mind Flowers

NameChange30 · 02/01/2017 22:34

lucie Yes it does seem like the Mothercare deal comes with one or two more accessories which is probably worth it for an extra fiver!

NameChange30 · 02/01/2017 22:35

Oops Flowers should have been Blush

Some boots stores have their newborn size nappies packs of 56 for £1 in store only. Seems to be hit and miss which stores have it though as a few people on my due dates thread wasn't in their local one.

radderss · 03/01/2017 12:03

Another 10% and free delivery on H and M until 2pm today.

Ordered that parka coat that someone recommended below but is too big so just been on to order it in smaller size and got another 10% off so it's £11!

They've got some nursing bras in the sale too xx

lucieloos · 03/01/2017 12:15

My H&M coat is ready for me to pick up today. I ordered a medium as thought I might want to put a thick jumper underneath. Hope it's not too big.

jpeg28 · 03/01/2017 17:45

With regards to the medela pump... I'm not going to get it yet. Mainly as I don't have a spare £100 this month and if I buy it and it doesn't work I'll be gutted!! Might see how I get on BF first and then I can order one from somewhere if I want it. I know sales are good but I feel like you can always find a bargain!

lucieloos · 03/01/2017 17:57

My coat came and feels a bit big on me. It was a medium. I'm normally a size 10-12 but seemed pretty baggy around the middle. It's a really nice coat though I'm impressed. Managed to order a small so will wait for that to arrive and compare.

iCoCo · 03/01/2017 18:49

My coat arrived today, again ordered a medium, it's too big, but all maternity clothes other than maternity jeggings and basic cotton tops. I wish I'd ordered a small but 5 months left so will grow into it hopefully.

My next find is the icandy website. Make sure you select the outlet not the main store. An apple to pear including a carrycot is £450 and they have the peach too.

lucieloos · 03/01/2017 18:55

Ohh thanks icoco off to have a look at the icandy site! Can you not order a small in the coat? They still have some left.

iCoCo · 03/01/2017 19:00

Ohhh thanks lucieloos I will have a look.

Floridasunset · 03/01/2017 21:08

For those of you looking for a close caboo I got mine on eBay second hand but in excellent condition when pregnant last time for £25. Look for ones that say they are from a smoke free home.
i loved it for when baby was very young and can't wait to use it again this time round

kelbe · 03/01/2017 22:33

We bought the deluxe dr browns steriliser and bottles set on amazon for £37 instead of £50. Worth a shop around

Sep2299 · 05/01/2017 09:06

Could anyone post a link of the H&M parka coat? I'm struggling to find it online - perhaps it's sold out?

TIA

lucieloos · 05/01/2017 09:16

It's here but they only have xs left now m2.hm.com/m/en_gb/productpage.0394001004.html

Sep2299 · 05/01/2017 09:25

Many thanks for posting the link - it should be the right size for me!

If any of you are interested in the obaby sophie swinging crib, "Precious Little One" online has them in various colours for £67.99 reduced from £99.99 with free delivery. Will have to get mattress elsewhere - there are brand new ones on eBay for under £10.

Also got the Medela swing breast pump for £99.99 on Amazon and got free delivery with free trial of Prime (which I've now cancelled!)

Sep2299 · 05/01/2017 09:31

Coat is on it's way! I signed up for the newsletter which gave me 25% off and free delivery, got it for £9.37 Smile

lucieloos · 05/01/2017 09:48

Sep, which medela pump did you get on Amazon? Does it come with the essentials pack like mothercare? I want to buy one soon.

Sep2299 · 05/01/2017 10:04

Lucie, here is the link

www.amazon.co.uk/Medela-Swing-Electric-breast-Calma/dp/B000LPZTQY/ref=sr_1_2?s=baby&ie=UTF8&qid=1483609942&sr=1-2-spons&keywords=medela+swing&psc=1

There is a list of what it comes with - the calma device & bottle is included, and would recommend getting nipple cream, breast pads & sterilising bags elsewhere a lot cheaper (like home bargains etc) and the extra bottles you can buy anywhere online. Noticed there's a set of two storage bottles 250ml for £4.99 - £5 off. I expressed for 3 months when my daughter was in NICU and you get through so many storage bags and pads it was worth getting them cheaply. This is the starter kit on Amazon and what it comes with

www.amazon.co.uk/d/Breastfeeding/Medela-008-0378-Starter-Kit/B00SX321OE/ref=pd_sim_75_1?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1&refRID=MGCA3G7A0GVJBC1RDPPR

I can't see that the Mothercare one comes with the essentials pack? Looks like the price has gone up again too!

Hope this helps Smile

Sep2299 · 05/01/2017 10:05

Sorry - the set of two storage bottles is from Mothercare

lucieloos · 05/01/2017 10:16

Thanks Sep, just checked and the mothercare one is £104.99. I think I'm going to order it now as I panicked when you said it had gone back up.

It includes the following so quite a good deal...

	Features the award-winning Medela Swing electric breast pump
	Includes Calma feeding device, designed to make switching between bottle and breast easy
	Quickly and easily clean your breastfeeding accessories with the Medela Quick Clean bag
	Includes pre-sterilised Pump & Save bags for clean and safe storage of breastmilk
	Individually wrapped Medela Disposable Bra Pads for hygienic use
	Instant soothing relief with Medela PureLan 100 cream for sore and cracked nipples (also for dry skin eg lips and sore noses)
Sep2299 · 05/01/2017 10:27

I must have been looking at just the breast pump on Mothercare - sorry!

That does look a good deal, I used Medela all the time we were in hospital and wouldn't use anything else!

lucieloos · 05/01/2017 10:29

I've ordered it now, this is our first baby so don't know how I will get on with it but going to give it a good try.
