Thanks SEY83 - agreed! My main focus is the really expensive stuff that does make a difference. Am also flying out once before my birth so do have some allowance. Am thinking pram/car seat/angel care monitor (opinions anyone?) breastpump bottles and clothes/bedsheets etc. And then any smaller items i can squeeze in in those 2 trips Many thanks!

hi there - am thinking of getting my bugaboo in london but was wondering whether this would cause me any problems should there be any issues here with the pram - warantee wise - what would i do? Anyone had any experience with this? Was in Just Kidding this weekend and they were trying to convince me the upside of ordering from them (surprise surprise) because of the warantee

really strange - twice now ive realised that the first part of that msg is missing - and it hasnt resent it ! I had said - thank you both for your kind suggestions! I have heard great things about the Ergo. And Sweet Lily - i too have heard things re the bjorn - altho 2-3 baby shop consultants in london tried to pitch bjorn to me when i was there last week. Im not there yet for the birth - just over obsessing about everything already lol ! And thanks for the consultant tip - didnt know such things existed! will defo try and and arrange for one.. so do you recommend sling over carrier at the newborn stage?

have also heard great things about ergo - perhaps it makes sense to just get that with baby insert! ohh i remember - there is also a new bjorn summery type carrier which supposedly addresses back issues - i remember my own concern when i saw the ergo was how thick it was - isnt it heavy here with the heat?

Hi Ladies - i will be coming back to dubai a few weeks after delivering in London and think i will use a babycarrier/sling and check in the pram. Any recommendations for best sling/carrier? someone was telling me the new bjorn i could use for a 3week old...some are saying slings are better hwen they are that young - any suggestions? Many thanks!

really interesting thread - i was actually just checking out the bumbo chair online to buy it, thinking its genius and uve put me right off - thanks ladies! sorry to hijack the thread but any good developmental toys you recmmend - for newborns? so many things come out and then are frowned upon its just so hard to make the right decision!

Oh great - will check out Bellini - is that also in Dubai Mall? As seems their website isnt working... 14000! thats insane! Are you sure not a typo ? Just kidding has 2 stores - on SZR (bween Jones and Mazaya) and in Gold and Diamond Park. They have a good selection i think but one of their cots is about 1000aed more than what i saw it at in London last week!!

Thanks ladies thats great to know? Btw anyone know if you can claim VAT back on baby stuff? I know you cant on clothes, but prams , furniture etc? Also - im planning on giving birth there, so im guessing i will need alot of the stuff there when i do give birth. Anything you reckon i can bring back now which i wont need then?

Hi ladies - i will be going back and forth from london 1, 2 times before the birth and was wondering whats essential to bring back which is much cheaper there than here? I guess probably most would be but is there anything from your experience far more important ? Thanks!!
