CONGRATULATIONS!!!!

I hope everything works out for the best for you and Briggsy as well as the baby. I know this has got to be a bit overwhelming if it wasn't expected. I personally thing little girls are easier to take care of than a MKIII.


Here's to you three............:drink1:
Chloe's is luke warm milk and not an alcoholic beverage, cause that would just be wrong.

lol, you are as suprised as we are!!!!!!

Went to hospital on Sunday afternoon thinking I had kidney stones or something, and came home last night with a beatiful baby girl :)

:eek2:First of all:CONGRATULATIONS!!!!

I have a 1 year old at home that was as planned, as planned could be. I can't possibly imagine how I would handle a situation like yours.:aigo:I'm sure I would have completely freaked out 4 or 5 times by now, or maybe had some sort of seizure.

LOL @ blown kid gasket. Congrats! That is SO crazy! You didn't feel her crawling up inside your ribs or anything? Did you think it was gas? lol.

I have had a newborn baby seat and a booster seat in my mk2s, never had a problem. I don't understand why you people can't fit these things into a mk3, don't you have more room back there than us mk2 heads?

My ex's grandparents were forever bitching at us to get a 4 door sedan or a VAN because the Supra was "impractical". HAH. We all made it through the newborn and toddler years with no problems using the appropriate car seats

Thanks so much everyone :)

We have both had our moments of freaking out... Hopefully we will not be so overwhelmed when we get things settled here at home... Family has maxed out their credit cards helping us get everything we and Chloe need... I think we have more stuff here now than we would have had if we had planned for her! (My living room looks like a baby store spewed up everywhere!)

Ian, that is the exact seat we got! Does anyone have pics of a capsule like that in the MkIII????

If we can't get it to fit, we will use the practical family car (89 VN Commodore) for a few months, and leave the Supe for when we can fit a forward facing seat :)

Oh, and Tanya, we will be contacting you about getting some bubby stuff from your store in the next couple days :D

Wow, just wow!

Congratulations. Girls are great, we have two. Beautiful name by the way.

I didn't have my Supra when we were using a rear facing seat, but I can see how it would be difficult because of the angle of the seat. The front facing seat fits fine though.

Congratulations again.

V - Thanks - I have no idea how you women can go through that more than once! (I have such respect for my mum now - 4 kids natural births, no drugs - she is superwoman!!!)

Tanya - Lol @ the Superman thing!!!!!!!!!

Bor - we can't use a forward facing seat just yet, but as soon as we can, the Supe will become our impractical faily car :)

Just wait. I know it hasn't all sunk in yet. I had nine months to prepare myself, and it was still a little overwhelming. You will see that it is all worth it. There's nothing like be a "Mommy".

Already done... Havent touched any since I went to hospital... I still can't believe how lucky we are that she is 100% healthy, given that I was smoking and drinking... There is definitely someone upstairs watching over us :)
