Scan pics as promised
This is my good side
Proud to be a boy!
Yeah. No two ways about it. He’s a boy! There’s no denying it. The gynae didn’t even try to say ‘Look, it could be the umbilical chord’ or something, he signed for it. It’s nice to have some certainty so early on. Poor ExMi had to resort going to a sangoma to find out the gender of The Kid.
I’m a little frustrated with the baby shopping at the moment. Nowhere seems to have stock of the car seat we can get 60% discount on from Discovery. Nobody seems to be able to tell me when they will get stock either. It’s a really good thing I didn’t leave this late! I’ve given my details to the various stores to please call me when they have stock, but I don’t rely much on customer service. Nellie is going to have a look if there is stock in PE for them to send to me. The store assistants did not even offer to check if there was stock in any other branch. I used to work in retail and I used to do that for fashion, not something important like child safety! (Yes, OK, fashion is also important.)
Perhaps I’ll pop into Game and enquire about their nappy exchange policy, HoneyB mentioned that they will do exchanges with a receipt regardless of the time period that has passed. I also wanted to buy some towelling nappies.
Okie dokie. Enough farting around. Got to get to work.
I can never ‘read’ those scans
Yup! That scan is a clear indication that it is surely a boy!
Can’t they order the seat for you anyway?
They are forking useless! I’m going to seriously lose my cool if nobody phones me within two weeks. Hopefully Nellie will find one for me in PE, so I don’t have to. I hate confrontation, but I’m hormonal dammit!
I also hate confrontation (although there are some who wouldn’t believe me) but bad or indifferent customer service is like a red rag to the raging bull that I become when I encounter it. Big congratulations on the news (and pics) of your little boy.
What seat are you looking for? I am going to Baby City tomorrow (in PMB). I can see if they got stock if you like.
Hey there,
Try going to an AA shop. There are four in the Western Cape: One at Parkade Mall, one at Cavendish Square, one at Somerset Mall and one at the Tyger Valley Shopping Centre. They usually have a good range of highly rated children’s seats and might have the particular one you are looking for.
I’m so glad for you that all is going well!
Thanks MeeA, I’m not sure if those shops would offer the Discovery discount though!
Girl I know how you feel the seat pattern I want got discontinued right before I was going to buy. Yes he is all boy.
