Wish List

I really want this, I can think of many ways to justify it, but the price leaves with a sad face :-(.  I was thinking of buying a cheap strapless bra from Cotton On Body instead but it would make my breastfeeding life easier though but $50 easier (price difference between cheap and expensive).  And to get free shipping I would have to buy another $50 worth of stuff from Queenbee.  Hmm this requires more thought, on the Wish list it stays for now.

Practicality over Style

Things I am thinking of purchasing but need to check my health insurance first due to the total rip off price :-(, if they give me half back I will consider it.... (pregnancy leggings and recovery shorts are two hundred dollars each!!): http://www.recoveryshorts.com/.  Maybe Ebay might have some cheaper!!

Is its considered stealing someone's style if they still get to keep it ;-p

I love this article and the outfits the very pregnant ladies are rocking: http://www.refinery29.com/maternity-outfits-for-pregnant-ladies.

The day I couldnt fit into my jeans anymore

Turns out it wasnt such a bad day, although I can still squeeze into my more flexible normal jeans with rubber bands and belly belt I decided it was time to finally buy new jeans.  Jeans West have AWESOME maternity jeans, bought black and blue for $109, turns out they are the best fit and most comfortable jeans I have ever bought - its a shame I never tried Jeans West for jeans before!

pretty things for practical uses

Due to a major increase, bra shopping was needed.  I didn't want to spend much money on short term need so was so excited to find Bras N Things having a MASSIVE sale, of pretty much everything but it also included Maternity bras YAY.   I got $170 worth of bras (4), for $38!!  And they were pretty maternity bras as well :-).  So awesome!

I heart awesome sales.

Maternity wear - where?

I am yet to move into maternity wear, but am making a wish list - lots of Cotton On stuff is perfect for maternity wear, and fingers cross it will all be on sale by the time I need to buy it :-)

oh ho oh ho its off baby window shopping we go!

So we will eventually need to buy some of the things on this list: http://www.babybunting.com.au/index.php/what-buy-before-baby-born/, but until November we are only window shopping.  I am hoping that the only realy 'big' purchase will be a pram and then later on a car seat, I plan to hire the car seat while baby is tiny: http://www.ambulance.qld.gov.au/babycapsule/default.asp.

Must have on my list: http://shop.target.com.au/safety-1st-exchangeable-tip-thermometer.

Baby on Board

Baby team member joining our team on New Years Eve.

Wk 19, things I have bought for baby:

• I will be using this Mimco bag as a baby bag, bought a few weeks during the massive DJ's Mimco sale got it for $110: http://www.mimco.com.au/Product/Bags_15/Non-Leather_22/ZETTA-TOTE_3641/index.aspx. 

And thats it!  We dont plan to buy anything for the little one until we move back into our house in November.  I bought a $12 belly belt from Target, however its to big for my little belly so I cant use it yet :-(.  For jeans and pants that dont button up anymore I am using elastic bands and pins.

Wish List:

• another Baby Bag! last one I promise, though will need to get Baby's Daddy a manly baby bag as well...:http://www.bambinipronto.com.au/Product-studded-hobo-nappy-bag-1873.aspx.  I lemming the Chocolate one.
