Hello! I bought them for my twins when they came home from hospital as I was so used to them being on monitoring equipment and the sock actually fed into my anxiety. I would sit and watch it and even the slightest fluctuation would have me panicking when I didn’t need too.
We've ordered the Egg3 for this baby but had an Ickle Bubba one for my last, I loved the Ickle Bubba one and it was a third the price of the egg one we've ordered. The Egg just has some features my partner really likes, like the handles extending (he's a giant) and we have a bit more money this time round so it's a big treat for us.
Silver Cross Tide was one of my options so I will keep that in mind! What a pain for you though, you would expect better getting it direct from them!We got a silver cross travel system. I wouldn’t recommend ordering from them purely for their customer service/delivery which is a disappointment for such an established company. I was so excited to get it delivered but it’s come in about 5 separate deliveries over 2 weeks so far, we’re still waiting for bits and it came a month later than it should have (which is frustrating when it was ordered so early to avoid that!). I imagine they’d be ok if you went through someone else like a pram shop, John Lewis etc as they’ll deal with the customer service and delivery side but it’s just been a nightmare for us and really put me off. I haven’t even got any of it out of the box yet as it’s really taken the excitement out of it.
I think the worst bit was after chasing it for weeks they emailed to say it was on its way, would be delivered the next morning. Mr R took a day off thinking big boxes etc, waited in all day. Eventually got a delivery at 9pm and it was just the adaptors for the car seat and nothing else. So if you decide on a silver cross, don’t go direct through them!
Ahh thank you I will have a look at Ickle Bubba. Yeah I think I definitely need to try, I don't want to order one and then struggle to use it!
My dream pram is the Peach 7. Again the issue is the price. It’s just aesthetically beyond all the others in my opinion.
Kids 100% change your life, it’s true, but not all of it is bad. When I just had my eldest, we still went to stay with friends, out for meals, he just came along and did what I did, he was such an easy baby. Once I had two, it was slightly harder, but they grow, and you adapt and actually I found that I prefer doing stuff with them that makes them happy. A lot of the time it’s just the 3 of us as my partner works away/late/weekends, we have a great routine and have fun together.
I start mine next week, really not looking forward to it
Sorry what were both of your factors that meant you need this? I am currently on aspirin apparently to thin my blood due to my low BMI. Is this in my future???I start mine next week, really not looking forward to it
Mine is my high BMI, age and my arthritis. So I suspect you'll be OK! They probably would have already mentioned it. I was told at 12 weeks but put it off but as you go through pregnancy the risk increases so couldn't really put it off any longer.
It doesn’t sound pleasant at all. Hope it’s all okay going forward xxI have gone for the iCandy Peach 7, was between that and an oyster or iCandy Core. Would defo recommend going and trying them, we went to the pram centre and we were in the shop for hours wheeling prams around and the staff were super helpful. For us the iCandy was expensive but for me it felt the most comfortable to manouvre and it suited both me and my partner which are very different in height and size. Im petite at 5ft1 and he is 6ft2 and we found that a lot of the travel systems either didnt work for me as it was too heavy and hard to manouvre or was uncomfortable for him with the height of the bar. We also are planning to have a second in the not too distant future so the fact it covers to a double was a big selling point and made us exclude the icandy core.
Second group finally accepted and their admin said the same thing! Cheeky baby brew is already playing games and making us waitMr Brew isn't caving and agreeing to an early private gender scan so I've done what I was determined not to do and joined a few nub theory Facebook groups. First one gets accepted and the admin says no idea hahaha. I just want to know more about whose lodging in there
Wish I had this problem. I’m still in the constipation phase and can only go with LactuloseAnyone else having dodgy belly’s (feeling horrible and having loose poos) often??
I’m 33 weeks and it keeps happening to me recently - seen that apparently it’s a sign of labour approaching but obviously I am very much not ready for that!
Just wondering if this is something others have experienced? Thank you
I'm 32 weeks and it was happening to me the other day. Luckily I haven't experienced and constipation my entire pregnancy, but I put the dodgy belly down to eating too much crap because my sugar/chocolate cravings are insane. I just ate less for a few days and it righted itselfAnyone else having dodgy belly’s (feeling horrible and having loose poos) often??
