Will do Jackie (the grin is still there from Thursday btw)

Congratulations, what fantastic news, so happy for you!
(my little boy is a Princess Alexandra too (only just...), very happy we were with it too!)

DD was born there and have nothing but good things to say about the maternity section. A&E section is pants but the maternity section is Brilliant!

Nope DD is now 4 and a half and after 3.5/4 years of trying for no2, we gave up(even freecycled all and I mean all of the baby stuff in Feb!) and then...

Yup Nico's 3 months

There are ways to make Murphy's Law work for you......... (I usually use the British name for that rule, but suspect it might hit a filter on here)
Quite a lot of pregnancies come when couples 'give up' planning for them.

Mrs RT here - just wanted to say thank you to everyone for their kind wishes. We are really excited and DD can't wait to be a big sister

Congrats, wonderful news!! (and if you need baby stuff one of my work colleagues is trying to sell a load of her stuff at the moment. Could ask her what she has if you like... ) we are not that far away from each other geographically are we?

[RedThorn]

Kirsty, there's only about 30 miles between us.... will have a chat with Jo and get back to you thanks. Jo is a childminder and some of the parents have also offered us bits so we need to see what we've got coming in.

Thanks everyone we are both overwhelmed by all the responses and generosity of everyone. There's such a great bunch of people here it's amazing!

The expected due date we were given is the 5th of December

How lovely, all these babnies about! I have a weakness that my wife sometimes finds embarassing --- I love the smell of babies heads!!! I even asked a girl in a checkout queue once if I could smell her baby's head! Weird, or what? But I love it!

[Flummery]

I like the smell of their hands. If you fold back the fingers (gently!) and sniff the palms it's heavenly! (Then they grab you by the lips and your eyes water!)

[zebedee]

PS I meant to write babies, not babnies, but babnies are pretty cute, too!!!

[jackie j]

I gave all my baby things away and then had son no4. Split up with ex gave all baby stuff away again, remarried and had baby no5 lol gave it all away and then eldest son said mum guess what we are expecting lol. I have kept a few bits this time for emergency's to use here but on the whole have got rid of most of it.
