*March & April 2021*

I got some new clothes cause my old ones have fallen apart! I've also lent out so many that I just didn't have a few key things. We definitely don't need any baby things but I always get just one special thing with each baby.

As for strollers, we just use the Bob (jogging stroller) when they're older and can hold their head up. My babies have always lived in a sling/wrap then a carrier for like the first year or so!


I felt 4 HUGE bumps last night, I can't really say they were "kicks" cause baby is so small but obviously bumped up against the side of my uterus, oh it was just so amazing! By far the strongest movements I've felt so far. I'm 14 weeks today. The best part is DH was listening to a podcast that was a debate between a reverend and an atheist and the huge bumps happened right when the narrator on the podcast said "Is there evidence for God?" I was speechless! DH and I aren't religious, but we aren't atheist either, just agnostic and open-minded I guess. we don't pretend we know anything for sure. But it was so, so cool!

Yeah I'm thinking in reality i probably wont use a whole get up. For dog walks we'll use a sling/carrier as its very off road in woodland. Im thinking a sperate car seat that stays in the car and just a normal stroller that can be used for new born and up. A full travel system is a good £700 these days, and if I don't use it I'll be annoyed

@MrsKatie awww yay for feeling things. Im 14 weeks tomorrow (going by scan dates). I havent felt anything yet. How magical

@doggylover ours isn't the joie one islts a cosatto all in it called I think but basically does the same and I love it so much wish I got with my others (if they were out then) there really is loads of room, we have chose the baby style oyster 3 don't no what colour tho lol xx

That's the car seat Heidi has now and that's the pram we have looked at xx

I saw someone with the oyster 3 the other day, it looked really nice. I noticed it especially as I’ve only seen the 2 before, I didn’t know there was a 3!

I think we might pick up a second hand city mini jogger this time. Simply because our pram doesn’t fold very small and now we will have the older kids in the back of the car (ford galaxy) there isn’t a huge space for a buggy if we want to take one.

@Nixnax with my first I started feeling kicks around 16 weeks so hopefully won’t be long for you!

I think I may have felt a few movements this week, but nothing with a pattern yet, just the odd thing that makes me go “oh was that it?”

Can I ask how you have your kids in the car atm? I am thinking my oldest two in the far back, have the middle seat down/out (I dunno if it comes out?!) as a walkway for them to get in and then the two little ones in the middle row at the sides. I originally assume we would just put eldest in the boot but I feel like she’d think she had been banished back there

Thanks, I think we will do the same with two in the back and two in the middle. You are going to need to upgrade to a bus for family days out

Just realised I’m now in second tri. That was, without exaggeration, the LONGEST FIRST TRIMESTER IN HISTORY

I'll find out if it's a boy or a girl on 9th December. Feels like ages away yet. I might do a sneaky private scan in 2/3 weeks to find out. Im getting very impatient

3rd march

We caved and bought a car seat on prime day for a darn good deal... I debated for a while bc it seemed so dang early (15 or 16 weeks?), but I prob wouldn’t have hesitated if it had been 5-6 weeks later!

Oh I'm so excited I'm hoping to order the pram Friday needs doing as I'll have about 17ish weeks left xx

Big week for purchases... I bought a pram today as well saw a good deal on eBay on a second hand one so snapped it up. Really hoping it fits in the small space behind the back row of car seats, but the dimensions say it should!

not 100% sure where we are gonna put the dog though he’s a Labrador, and an enormous one, so not able to fit in the footwell

Ooh exciting!
What prams did you guys get ?

Ive got the silver cross elegence with both the linear chassis and classic bouncy chassis
(all 2nd hand but in brand new condition)
Ive saved an absolute fortune so chuffed to bits lol xo
