anyone else having to change whole bedroom dynamics to fit newbeau?
Hey peeps now we are getting to our 12 weeks safe mark were are loking at the bedroom situation, as this is a surprise baby we are gonna have to have our DS's sharing so they will be 3 1/2 and 1yr, looking at bunkbeds but i dont want me DS1 to have a new bed as he only jus got his new mid sleeper toy story bed which he loves back in june, i was thinking of getting a toddler bed to fit underneath for ds2 and cutting the legs off so its pretty flat to the floor ds1 was in a bed at 1 because he climbed out so im not worried with ds2 going in bed at young age. Not ideal but what can you do? lol
its better than newbeau in with 1yr old that sleeps well! alsoo my and dh will move into our ds1 room so the boys can have the biggest room (which also has a shower room) things we do for our kids eh! haha well this will be the arrangement untill we can get a room in the roof....

As this was also a surprise baby we've got a bit of a hectic situation to sort (we were currently saving for a new house as we live in a 2 bed but now we need to buy baby things & a bigger car 1st :roll: ) so my girl n boy will carry on sharing which they seem to love anyway & don't like to be apart. And the new baby will be in with bus until we can afford to move again, unless there's anything at a reasonable price to rent instead xx
We have had to move around so much due to landlords deciding to sell up so I refuse to move again to a 3 bed unless it's a council one (unless this landlord decides to sell but he emigrated to Canada so it's not likely).
Don't know what it's like where you guys are but here is really bad for housing unless you are willing to live in flats in really dodgy areas. I would rather pay the extra rent for a smaller house and feel my kids are safe. It's ridiculous.
We live in cornwall and we've been on the housing list for four years now so Im hoping once baby no3 is here we might be moved up bands and get somewhere!
We're lucky that my Inlaws bought this house when we were expecting our first and we just pay them the standard monthly rent for our area, I love the security that it's our place and no1 will ask us to move and we can do whatever we like here whereas to rent a 3 bed it's gonna cost about ??800 a month which is stupid and we could be asked to move out at any time which I don't like the thought of.

I should imagine you would be eligible for a 3 bed if you have 3 children plus your step son over the holidays as that's quite alot over the holidays!! xx
House prices are ridiculous for rent. It's probably because they know that some people have no choice but to pay it. Even trying to move you normally need about ??1500 between deposit, rent and estate agency fees. I've told dh we should all just cram into a 1 bed flat then they have to list us as priority lol. Have far too much "stuff" for that though xx
ahh just think it will all be worth it in the end, you will eventually get a house that's big enough and the rent will be considerably cheaper too I imagine (it is here) xxx
We have a 3 bed currently so my ds will move in with my dd and the nursery stay a nursery. Then once everyone is a bit older whichever we have 2 of the same sex they will share one room and the other will have the smaller room.
??800 for a 3 bed is a good price, you're lucky to find one for less than ??950 a month around here. My sister pays ??800 for hers but has 1 very small double and 2 teeny box rooms for her and my 2 nephews. Its teeny !!!
