Javagal it can be hard...most of our friends live miles away or in other countries! We have moved around over the years & it's harder to make new friends as you get older it must have hurt to not be invited out & was probably down to thoughtlessness than anything else :rolleyes:

My partner is absolutely my best friend & Kash we sound very like you & your other half I think we might live in roughly the same area

I think mother & baby classes are advertised locally...they also have musical classes for babies & the likes. I want to get involved in such things also but have the added issue of explaining to other mums that my little girl has two mums just something I have to get used too :rolleyes:

I have just signed up for the parish newsletter! No mother and baby activities that I could see, but plenty of masses and even a bake sale

Hubby is talking babies with everyone he meets, so work colleagues of his are bringing him in a pile of baby clothes, a high chair, travel cot and pram - plus a bunch of other small bits and bobs. He's over the moon with himself

Sure at least you know what time mass is at and where the bake sale is!

Never thought of checking Argos for mattresses, I was just going to order it from the m&p website. Must compare the prices.

Gosh, it only seems like yesterday we were comparing waiting times for first scans in the different hospitals. Now we're talking mattresses and hospital bags!eek!

I know, it's pretty mental how fast the last few weeks have gone.

I have to say, I was dreading the third trimester, especially as I was getting next to no sleep with the pain in my hips recently - and being a right moody b1tch because of it! I had visions of being like that for the next 11 weeks!

But yesterday I slept like a log, and only got up once to pee - so I feel fabulous today

I'm not overly in love with the third trimester. The thoughts that this back pain is only going to get worse is making me dread the next couple of months.
I'm hoping to be able to go back to work next week and even just keep going for another three or four weeks and then take a few days sick leave if I need it.

I got mine for the cot in Smyths Toys. It was a hypo allergenic one and it was 60euro!

Was in Mothercare and the price of the cellular blankets nearly made me collapse. Someone else mentioned this before so going to order from Guineys online.

What about nursing bras? Anyone know where they can be bought cheaper than Mothercare?

Thanks girls, I had a bit of extra padding before I got pregnant trying to be conscious that I don't put on loads of weight.

I'm live in Carlow, but obviously as my username suggests I'm from Kildare.

Notsobusy: Penney's and Heatons do nursing bras sometimes. Other than that there's InHealth, McCabes or ebay have them too I really don't want to spend much on them because they might be too big/small afterwards!
