Arrggghhh! So frustrating.
I've been advised that an order I had placed for maternity bras, a nightie and nursing camisoles has been dispatched - MINUS the cami's as the company has been taken over by Bendon, and they won't be supplying that item anymore!

I've searched high and low for a NICE nursing camisole, that is long enough to not show the bottom of my bump in the third trimester. Seems everyone that does a pregnancy/nursing cami thinks that pregnant bumps either don't get very big, or everyone loves to show some skin hanging out. That, and if they happen to be long enough, then they don't go past a size 12!!! rant.gif

The store is providing a refund so I can try and source the camis somewhere else.

ARGH bubbly! Feeling your pain for you!

I've seen some Lovable camis that look good and go to a 16 & 18.

Queen Bee have them, and I saw them in store at the b'feeding assn shop at Malvern East.

There are other colours, just look at Queen Bee and search Lovable.

Good luck

Thank you for your email.
We have been in discussions with Lovable to try and find out the status of the Bundle Seamless Cami.
We wanted to get up-to-date info before we cpontacted you about it.
We have been unofficially informed that Lovable have been taken over by Bendon.
As part of this takeover these is not currently clear information about what styles are available or continuing.
We have been advised by our Lovable rep about an hour ago that it is unlikely the Bundle seamless cami will be available from them.

So we will have to cancel it from your order unfortunately.

hopefully your refund will come through asap and you can buy them elsewhere. It wasn't Queen Bee you bought them thru was it?

No, it wasn't. It was Blest Bras. I'm scared now to order them through Queen Bee, in case they figure out what's going on and cancel that order, too!
Plus I'll have to pay double postage, which I HATE doing. Sigh.

Hi Loue, CarlyB and Teemoo,

Thank you so much for your replies. They brought tears to my eyes, so I appreciate it. That didn't make sense, but it's pregnancy brain so I'm just going with it!

Sorry for the late reply too, have just been absolutely flat out the last few days! Crazy times. But on the very positive front, DP was able to sort out his issues with his brother and things ended on a good note, which is a huge relief. Hopefully they can keep communicating and things will keep going in a positive direction.

I also sorted out my hip issues. I think it was my ligaments stretching in my sleep, so DP went out and bought me a body pillow, and so far I have had 2 really good nights sleep, which has made the world of difference. I highly recommend them to anyone else who is having sleep issues.

Also I'm pretty sure I felt the baby move last night, so very happy original.gif

Hi,

We are contacting the Lovable rep to find out for you if they have any other colours available in the bundle cami for you as we have none in stock in any colour in your size.
We wil get back to you as soon as we hear back from her.


So lets see what they come back with. I will NOT be paying postage if they do happen to get a hold of some stock.



Today is a complete rant.gif rant.gif rant.gif rant.gif day.
Boss is in a bad mood, and I'm sure you've all heard the expression sh*t rolls down hill.

I was also watching Chocolat on TV last night, and a Target Christmas commercial came on that I suddenly started bawling my eyes out over. Unexplainable hormonal state, DH was concerned that something was wrong, because it was my first real 'what the hell was THAT over' cry session! I think I just have to put today down to wildly unbalanced hormones, and try to get through the day without killing anyone! glare.gif
