I've come across some decent websites... the best one is babycentre (http://www.babycentre.co.uk).

The National Childcare Trust is also very good (http://www.nct.org.uk/).

These guys do really, really good maternity and breast feeding-friendly bras. Now... I'm not a woman, but my girlfriend has recently got a couple of these and reckons they're the most comfortable bras she's ever worn. They have a clip thing which makes breast feeding very easy and they have really good support on the back.
They're not the cheapest, to be honest. But they're well worth it.

www.babycentre.co.uk is great. I used to love getting the weekly updates on the sprog's development.

It's getting us through our pregnancy. Only two visits from our midwife, so we use this to find out everything we need to know.

It's going to be an e-baby at this stage.

Some Maternity wear sites:
http://www.funmum.com/ - these are very good
http://www.jojomamanbebe.co.uk/ - apparently quite stylish, but pricey enough
http://www1.vertbaudet.co.uk/ - these guys are meant to be good for maternity clothes too.

And Top Shop Maternity is meant to have some good stuff as well.


Ahem.

'What to Expect when You're Expecting' was my bible when I was pregnant. If you haven't gotten it yet GO GET IT!

I think my daughters mother had the "first year" one of them, or maybe beyond that... um... deadly books though, very practical and even handed

That woman has a lovely speaking voice, heard her on the radio one day
I wouldn't bother with a recipe book for kids, dude. Ours just eats what we eat, unless it's "chilli hot" (which she doesn't like) and then we just add the chilli at the end after we take hers out of the pot. Start cooking special dinners for a child early on and you're setting yourself up for a lifetime of cooking 2 dinners - we used to get a separate dinner from our parents until I was about 10 and my Ma finally flipped out and said "NO MORE!!!"

I did a website once for breastfeeding-wear http://www.onceborn.com but her domain seems to have expired. Niamh bought some of the stuff and had fairly mixed feelings - I don't think the breastfeeding tops were that easy to use (my memory's a little hazy on this), twas easier to wear just a top with a zip

Avon have little extensions for bra straps which is good (for a while) for expanding boobs

We got our washable nappies from http://www.thebabyorchard.com

I'd say most breastfeeding women'd say "no thanks, they're expanded enough!"

No dude - for constraining boobs which are expanding beyond the normal capacity of the bra. Not for actually expanding the boobs like. Oh hold on a sec - were you joking?
