Look of the day and baby capsule installed!

I hired the baby capsule from the ambulance service.  I was thinking of getting a Safe and Sound Unity but I just couldnt justify the price for only 6 months of use, and even when I thought I could probably use it for babe number two, I didnt want the clutter of keeping it around etc plus the price was still a bit out of my range.  If I had of lived in a capital city I probably would of got one secondhand since if you live in a capital city there is such an abundance of cheap secondhand gear, but alas I do not.  So for $70 the ambulance service installed a basic safe and sound capsule.  It is a little bit annoying it doesnt have a little head cover, but as I have discovered, there have been lots of clever pregnant ladies out there who have come up with amazing products (I wish I had some of their creativity) - check this out its a hood that attaches to one of the handles - awesome!:http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Funky-babyz-capsule-hood-liner-belt-covers-set-jade-/120821617241?pt=AU_Travel&hash=item1c21879259.

 I also bought a black polka dot capsule liner to match the pram liner, note that with both liners I choose something gender neutral :-).  Unfortunately it looks like its a month wait at least to get the capsule liner, the website I ordered the pram liner off doesnt do capsules and the only person I could find that does (and in the same design) has a backlog and says its at least a month wait POO.  Baby will probably be 3 weeks old by then, but oh well.

Look of the day is ASOS top and ASOS peg pants.  The tops have come in handy and I am sad that I actually bought to many maternity clothes and havent got a decent wear out of them all, but ASOS was sooo cheap!  I regret buying two pairs of peg pants as I only needed one - and I kinda regret buying them at all, the one thing I learnt this pregnancy is do not buy things that you are not your style just because they are maternity and you think you might pull it off (like my maxi dress fiasco).  Peg pants are not my style, they look okay and I know heaps of girls wear them all the time (not just maternity!), but Hammer pants they will always be to me (or pajama pants as my husband suggested)
