Hi all :) Back to work full time on Monday so I am making the most of my last few days off by doing a bit of baby shopping for our baby girl! I'm currently 17+3, I am feeling ok apart from my hips still aching like crazy and feeling very uncomfortable in bed. My bump is developing nicely and I am trying to keep a record of how my body shape changes as I thought it would be something lovely to look back on. I did a little photoshoot of my 17 week bump and despite my very poor photo taking skills, I got some nice pictures! My belly is getting nice and round but yet to 'pop'. I haven't felt any movements or kicks yet apart from those weird thuds I had a few weeks ago, it may not have been baby girlie but who knows! I will feel it soon and it will be wonderful :)
Michael and I took a little baby shopping trip out yesterday and after a lovely lunch at Frankie and Benny's, we headed to a massive 'Babies R Us' as well as Mothercare. We saw a few prams we liked in Babies R us but overall wasn't overly impressed with their range of goods. We bought some lovely soothers and a bath/room thermometer though. We headed to Mothercare and saw the cot of our dreams! It was beautiful and we were all ready to purchase when they told us out of stock. Michael called around all the local Mothercares but unfortunately we couldn't track it down. We were disappointed but we then found an almost identical one on the website at a similar price and we bought it! Mothercare were offering 20% off as well so it seemed silly not to buy it, early or not, it's fantastic to be prepared!
It is called the 'Darlington' cot and is so very pretty, we can't wait for it to arrive on Tuesday <3
Now we know we are having a girl, I have very much enjoyed buying some clothes (mostly Ebay!) and was also very generously given lots of cute baby clothes by a friend of mine. I have had some lovely offers to give us baby girl clothes and we are very grateful for everyones generosity! I have bought quite a lot myself but these are a few of my favourite little bits I have got this week:
Hello Kitty PJ's from Primark, £6
Very cute pink baby snowsuit with the 'Little Tilly' design-got this for £3 on Ebay :)
Got these from Tesco's-both £2 each :)
And this beautiful Monsoon baby girl dress, got this for £2 from Ebay, what a bargain!
Baby shopping is very fun but think I need to hold off a bit now until payday lol :)
