amysarah85, so far looks like a boy but I've got a scan next thursday the 5th in which they'll confirm the sex as bub had legs shut and opened for only a few seconds sonographer thought she saw a willy between the legs so we're thinking boy at the present moment if we can't tell on thursday i'm having a 3d scan on the 5th of July so hopefully we'll know by then.
I'm going to be very anal this time, I wasn't with the first two as we didn't have the funds to be! I'm working full time from home with a daycare and my hubbies finally got a better job with better pay, which will help us out this time. Mind you he wasn't very impressed when the cot price jumped up $300 so that it was different to his sisters, mind you it's alot better quality cot too. I went to babyco this time, my last cot was a hand-me-down in excellent condition but we wern't expecting kids so soon(another story). Last time our pram was a bertini and we purchused a safe n sound royale retractor both new from myer. This time I've gone the safe n sound royale car seat again but not the retractor as ours played up last time.
Our house is only 3 years old built from new and the carpet is in new condition so I don't need to worry about that, but the paint. Aaaaaaaaaaaarrrrrrrrrrrrrrrggggggggggghhhhhhhhhh it's builders paint and if you try to clean off a mark the paint washes off too, so I've given up..... I can just imagine the room after my two monkeys get in there with bubs it'll be black marks are us and I won't be able to clean it off! I'm a clean freak although I seem to be letting things go a bit more lately.
So so far I've got:
Pram: Bemma Q by swallow with bassinet insert..... 3 wheeler going to give it a try if I crack a nut I've still got my 4wd 4wheel bertini.
Carseat: Safe n sound royale
Cot: antique(Baltic) Gembrook by regent solid pine from babyco and is closed in one end open other.
Cot Mattress: Innerspring made by childcare (dunlop branded from baby target)
Changetable: matches the gembrook cot assume it's a gembrook change table made by regent with a cream change mat.
Bath: Fisher and price Aquarium bath blue in colour comes with some sort of mat and toys, not to sure about it but my daughter fell in love with it and I figure baby baths aren't to expensive to replace if it's not very good. Last time I had a all in one change table and bath where top lifted up, but thought I'd try a seperate bath this time.
Nappy wrapper: Tommee Tippee (never had one thought I'd try one)
(I'm going Avent for steriliser and bottles/brest pump as I had them last time)
Anyway that's where I'm at so far, I've got most of the big stuff covered, but when it comes to the theme I'm just stumped I don't want to go wild animals as that's what my girlfriend just did with a pale blue feature wall, my son's got disney cars theme and my daughters got a pink feature wall with lady bugs on it(her nickname is bettle) and disney princess quilt covers/ mink blanket. My sister in law has gone chocolate furniture and has cream walls but no theme so far.
Feed, looks like you've got a job ahead of you, I can remember washing the clothes for my other two and putting them all way, so far I've bought one jumpsuit bonds brand and left it at that, waiting for confirmation of sex before I go clothes crazy!
Jenjams, I'll have a look in gallery tomorrow!(Thanks)
Thanks for your input so far as i said i'm in need of inspiration, hubby is demanding attention, so I better be off!
