Quick PSA

Don’t be a fool like me! Before you run upstairs to have a quickie with your husband make sure your baby monitor receiver is turned off so the whole rest of your house doesn’t hear ur shenanigans. 🫠🫠🫠

Gifts not on registry

You specifically sent your registry out & still got something completely not on your registry & you don’t like it at all, do you ask that person for the receipt or just resell/gift it to someone else? I think it’s actually ridiculous to not buy off someone’s registry that they worked so hard on & you just blatantly get what “you” wanted…

Buying diapers before baby?

Hello all! I am in a pickle here.. as everyone around me is saying I HAVE to buy diapers before baby is born.. to stockpile or have a few packs of different brands. I have Everything I need for baby besides diapers. I’m 32 weeks already too.

I’m a FTM , but I don’t really want to buy a bunch of diapers before baby. He could be preemie for all I know, or go straight into a size 1… The diapers I buy could give him a major rash then I have a good amount I can’t use.. plus I know hospital will AT LEAST give 1 package of them..

Is this wrong for me to think this way? Cause everyone is making such a big fuss about it.. and I am lost. Worse comes to worse, baby will be sent home in a diaper and I can have my hubby go in store and get a pack on the way home. UGH 😭

Fake tan

Has anyone fake tanned during a previous pregnancy (specifically in third trimester)?

We are attending a wedding in a couple of months, so want to look/feel my best during early summer with a little golden glow ☀️ I usually sun it up, so fake tan is a little new haha I read that spray tans are probably best avoided due to inhaling, but creams/mousses/gradual tan are generally okay..? If so, any recommendations?

Obviously, I absolutely won't if it really isn't advised!

Travel buggies!

Hey! I can't decide what travel buggy to get.

We live in the UK and go to our holiday home in Spain every year. Plus other holidays abroad and weekends away in the UK.

The travel buggy we choose will be purely our holiday buggy snd then at my mum and dad's when we're not on holiday incase they have baby for days out etc.

We have narrowed it down to 3 thay we can afford, our baby will be 6 months old when she first uses it and it needs to be good in hot climate and easy to transport etc.

We can't afford anything more than £225 as this won't be our everyday pram!

We like the sound of cybex Beezy but it doesn't seem to have much ventilation?

Silvercross clic appeals to us but ove read some bad reviews??

Ikkle bubba aires also sounds good but again is there much ventilation?

Thoughts on Kinderkraft strollers?

Help please! So indecisive

Thank you

Car seat help

Hi all,

I’m looking for some help and advice on my son’s car seat.
His car seat is appropriate for his age (11 months).
However, he keeps going chin to chest when he falls asleep and flops his head too far down that he chokes himself.
I have tried readjusting the straps, it’s on the furthest back recline setting it can be.
I’ve tried everything but it is still happening and it’s really causing a lot of stress and putting me off driving with him.
What’s going on and has anyone else experienced this please?
Thank you all

Doona trike?

Is this worth buying? Or any trike really? My baby will be one soon and we’re contemplating getting her a trike, but it’s expensive so I just wondered whether it’s the right age, or whether it’s even worth it?
At the moment she’s still quite happy in her pram but I’m not sure if that’s something that changes once she starts walking / gets older, and whether a trike would keep her happier when we’re out and about?
Any advice would be much appreciated 🥰🥰

Car seat recommendations

So we had a Cybex with our first baby but it kept getting stuck to the isofix base and really put me off it. What is everyone going for, I’ve looked at Cybex again and they’ve said in John Lewis the issue is resolved but I’m not convinced. Looked at icandy cocoon but this looks like a fashion statement more than safety, and nuna but I am SOOO confused! X

Would you use a washable cover for your play mat?

Hi mums! 👋

I’m a local mum and I’ve been so frustrated with our foam play mat — impossible to clean properly in an apartment with no outdoor space.

I’ve been working on a solution and just wanted to know if anyone else has this problem before I go further with it. Basically a fitted, waterproof, washable cover that zips on and off.

Is this something you’d actually use? And what would be your must-haves? 👇

Just bought new clothes for my kids, threw them in the dryer and now they have shrunk 🤦‍♀️ any tips on how to get them back to original size?

I used to air dry all my cotton clothes but now having two kids (one being a newborn) I have absolutely no time and just throw everything in on low heat

Frida Baby brand

Does anyone else feel like Frida Baby should be boycotted? Or just me? They’re putting sexual jokes on baby products. I feel like that’s not okay and they shouldn’t be supported. But I feel like no one talks about this enough. This is just ONE of the many “jokes” on baby products.
