There's a lot of that about you know. You wouldn't believe the amount of people who were milling around in John Lewis at the weekend who were just shopping for the new trendy prams. £800 for a bugaboo just because it's trendy! £800!!!

I know , it's like we are all competing against each other to see who can be the yummiest Mummy

I dread to think how much money I have spent on my princess in the last year

Very swanky.

I can see how that's going to be very easy to do. Hubby had to stop me buying a shed load of girly dresses on Saturday because we don't even know if we're having a girl yet. I haven't bought anything at all yet but I'm already having to remind myself to be sensible about spending when baby is finally here.

Aww, fankoo. Hubby's step sister works in a pram shop in Doncaster so we're hoping she'll be able to pull some strings to get us one, but it's worth knowing where there are other stockists just in case.

Ooh just wait till you know what it is.

I had a case full of 0-3 cream babygrows and as soon as she was born I was wailing to my Mum 'I can't put her in cream , she is a girl' Plus they were HUGE on her.

Good old Mum returned an hour later with a bag bursting full of pink newborn stuff

You don't mess with a woman who has just given birth

You're tying yourself up in knots about it Queenie!

Go with what you fancy.... even if it ends up having its negative points... you're still gonna get loads of use out of it.

Analysis paralysis my hubby calls this kind of dilemma!

Buy the purple one!!

I put less thought into chosing my house than this

No, made my mind up now definitely. Hubby has been driving me NUTS, kept reading reviews to me and looking at measurements and mechanisms etc. I don't think any pram is going to me perfect, everyone wants different things and all of them have got bad reviews from someone about something. I just wanted one that was small, lightweight, had decent storage, wasn't too expensive and was easy to push, this one ticks all those boxes and I like the look of it too, so as long as the waiting list isn't more than 10 weeks, this is the one I'm going to have.

I think purple is pretty unisex so go for it. I have been reading reviews of some them - quite frightening some of them are

How awful - I'll give them a wide berth then. Do you mind me asking what make your potential pram is?

Thanks - I haven't read anything bad about them I must admit - I never realised there was so much research to do I must say I do like the purple

I've seen a couple of dodgy reviews tbh, but they're mostly really positive. When are you due?

I've had 2 M&P and no problems. Go and try one out again just in case you don't get the iCandy one.

Ooooh, the big scan's really exciting, I cried at mine. Are you going to find out what you're having? Mine's due at the end of August, I wish I could've found out.

i candy apples set off alarms in shops apparently, dunno about cherry!

Ahh, don't be nervous, it'll be fine and you'll love it. Good luck anyway, I hope you manage to convince your OH. Mind you, it really doesn't matter if you don't find out, I'm quite liking the element of surprise.

My head starts spinning when we talk of names but at the mo it could well be Dante for a boy and Armani for a girl.

Fine, and I'm paranoid as to the whole G/b thing - I kept mine in white until they were 1yr old!
the continentals have used this as a boy/girl colour for years as my late Mum bought lilac stuff from France as it was the girl/boy alternative 26 yrs ago to my knowledge. However hubby of 28 yrs being Turkish, I know pink works for either out there as does blue. I just can't do that one tho'.
