Just wandering if any of you ladies are living in a flat and wandering what you are going to do for space? I still have a little while till my little one is here but I'm starting to freak about it already and wandering what your doing to prepare for them? I know it won't be so bad until they are a little older but any advise would be great :)

I can't give you any advice but I'm in the same boat and it's stressing me out x

It's a nightmare isn't it, can't help but think about it everyday. I try and sort stuff out and minimise everything even my sons stuff but I'm just not finding much space to make. Feeling really down about it tonight and want to cry aswell as listening to all the screaming kids either side of my flat 😢

Yep I've sorted out some toys my son doesn't play with anymore and got rid of them. I've also got 2 toy boxes but there's no way anything else will fit in it. He only has a bed, bookcase and drawers in his room I would swap my room for his but I have a fire window which can't have any locks on and my son likes looking out the windows so it can get dangerous. I'm on my council housing list but I'm saving myself to see if I can get one quicker private xx @rach0402

That's annoying then you can't even swap rooms :( we can't even really swap rooms with our son cause there still isn't much room to put stuff anyway cause of the bigger things we have got. How are you back on your council list? I haven't tried cause I thought we were classed as eligibily housed? @sophie94x xx

I don't know, I just went in and applied and now I can bid for houses. I've been in this flat for 3 years don't know if that's why xx @rach0402

Arh ok well that's a good start for you 😊 I hope you do find somewhere 😊 I'm going to try and find out if I can go back on it, I've been in my flat for 5years this year, but then I live in a area where housing is so limited as it is so doubt they will let me. @sophie94x xx

there's none available in my area but I'm willing it move to get a bigger house lol @rach0402 xx

I'm In the same boat... well sort of. long story but we had to move from an old house we was renting which we did up and loved then got told we had to move out because she was selling it. so we had 2 months to move. We rushed getting something in that time and the house now is way to small and totally impractical for a baby it's a small cottage type. cold tiled floor in lounge. wooden pointy stairs in lounge sharp wooden floors everywhere else. gutted cos I really wanted to do up a baby room but that will have to wait when baby is out of our bedroom hopefully we've moved by then
.. nightmare x
