I expect this has been done to death previously....however I have finally decided to play at being an adult and am expecting my first baby in July (having put it off for far too long!!)
So, I'm hopeful that some sensible peeps can make some recommendations, specifically with regards to essential bits of kit (i.e. carrier things, yard proof buggy etc etc). I keep mine at a livery yard on DIY and so far I've been very sensible and sold my little dun mare (who has gone to a lovely home - made it so much easier). The big ginger one I've stopped riding (due to him being a bit of a tit) but he is old and sensible enough to potter around for the summer. I'm quite lucky in the timing as he will be living out within the next month and is generally very low maintenance.
So yes, any advice is greatly welcomed...I asked a friend of mine for a shopping list of essential items, she came back with tenna lady and earplugs. Joy!! The challenge over the next few months is to STOP looking at youngsters for sale (thinking maternity leave project?). Yes I am completely deluded as to how much time a baby will take up : )
