I managed to sell 2 of hubby's drill sets for £40 at the weekend at the car boot and £20 worth of veg plants. Bargain!! Paid for the posts to go in the paddock with what I made the weekend before. Boring as hell sometimes but when I get home and add everything up it makes me smile like this!![:D]
Congratulations from me too! The next few weeks / months must be concentrated on YOU! The baby is the most important thing at te moment - a new I&e will be needed to ensure you are able to continue to service your IVA - your IP will support you through this and I am sure there will be a way round to make thongs easier for you !

I doubt those will be very easy for her as time moves on lulu!![:D][:D]
Congrats!! Asda baby event is always good value!! Clearance houses are good as well - we used M&P in Leeds it was really cheap. NCT do nearly new sales which are very good. Surestart also have various sales.
The road is 72months long starting September 2010.
Thank you everybody.
I have just thought tonight that a friend of mine is due anyday now so when baby gets too big for things I can ask very nicely for hand me downs [:D]
Again thank you. I really want to tell all my family and friends now but I will wait a little longer.
That's the thing with babies as well - they grow so quickly that a lot of stuff is still pristine when it no longer fits.
I'm sure your friend will help you out sazzysue.
I borrowed a moses basket from a friend for my daughter - she had it back once daughter was in a cot.
Let us know how you are getting on and what you have (eventually!)
Hope the pregnancy runs smoothly.

Congratulations. I envy you - I have been trying desperatly for a baby for 6 months now and can't get pregnant. It makes me cry every month when it does not happen, I am in an IVA and don't let it stop me trying. Life is too short. I am really beginning to think there is something wrong with me though. Or maybe the stress of the past few months has taken its toll. I feel like a horrible person though, as a friend of mine has fallen pregnant and I am so hurt with jealousy that I can't bring myself to go and see her.
I'm sorry you are having problems frenchie. Don't know what to suggest other than try for IVF on the NHS? Stress does sometimes hamper pregnancy attempts so that might be why.##
Please don't feel horrible - it's just one of those things.
Have you been for any tests frenchie?

Hi frenchie. Please try to keep your spirits up. Stress does play a huge part in trying to conceive. It took me 7 months to catch with my first and 9 months with my second. I had all but given up and then they just 'happened'!.
I am not a medical person but only go by what advice I was given and that is to not put any pressure on yourself. Sometimes pregnancy just happens when you least expect it!
Keep trying and if after the year, still no joy then pay a visit to your GP. You will get there though. *hugs* x
Chill out, concentrate on yourselves and I'm sure it will happen.

Frenchie - Don't think about trying to get pregnant. It took us over a year to fall for our daughter, she was a year old when we entered into our IVA, and now after three years of trying for number 2 we are 8 weeks off giving birth (Ooch! I try not to think about that bit!).... 3 years of pain, heartache and stress, and I would not wish it on anyone. Please do not let it get you down. It WILL happen. But only when you are relaxed, and everyone is right, do not let the IVA stop you. We are going through hard hard hard times but it will be okay. Everyone goes to bed fed and warm, and that is all I care about!
Sue - As explained, my daughter is due in 8 weeks, I will then be aiming to get rid of everything as soon as she grows out of it! Please keep in touch and I will pass on whatever I can to you. I know the situation you are in, and would be only too pleased to help! Whatever you need, or whenever you want to start collecting bits just shout and DON'T BE SHY!
xxxxxxxxxx
Our greatest glory consists not of never falling but of rising each time we do fall
Oooh, not long now mumsmushroom! Hope it all goes ok.
If you're in touch via FF sazzysue and mumshroom then you can probably help each other out. If not, I can pass on email addresses as and when.
Hope you both get on ok and let us know MM when the baby arrives.
