Last week, I was lucky enough to be invited along to the UK launch of Mothercare’s long-awaited App and what a pleasure it was. Hosted, by the too-yummy-for-mummy Myeleene Klass at the swanky Charlotte Street Hotel.  I would have been foolish to turn down the invite. That said, me being one of the 74% of mums who ‘agree that they would be lost without their smartphones’,  I am always interested in the technology arena, especially if it’s more than a simple shopping opportunity!

Becoming a mum is a wonderful experience because you can celebrate the arrival of a beautiful bundle of joy but the experts at Johnson understand that it can change your body.

So, with very little time to go and only the last few bits and pieces to buy,myself and Mr Pregnantcitygirl are going to visit the Baby Show this weekend at Earls Court to see what we have missed, lust after things that we do not have and probably do not need and generally immerse ourselves in all things ‘baby’ (and parents!). It’s a day out for me and I’m really looking forward to it. Gone are the days of long boozy lunches and hello instead to nesting, learning about new things and buying alien goods! I know that I am going to be like a kid in a candystore. Its the biggest Baby Show in the UK packed full with everything and anything for new and expectant parents all under one roof. Free advice from the experts and every thinkable brand (300 of them!) at cheap, cheap prices, free samples and special deals. I’m too late for the maternity fashion but on the lookout for feeding tops so looking forward to the fashion shows. On the downside not looking forward to spending even more money (a baby is so bloody expensive!) but the way I look at it is it’s not what we are spending but what we are saving!

Oh god! Where to start today? I have million of things going through my head, some of which I am happy to share, others which I am not so. I’m alone again today so you know what that means; immature mummy-to-be Pregnantcitygirl is lonely and bored (‘don’t use that word, it’s a horrible word!’). I’m watching ‘This Morning’ (what a load of old rubbish) and sitting in bed (again) my bottom becoming increasingly numb the longer I sit here laptop fittingly perched on  my lap! Continue Reading
