Baby wipes

I use the pampers harmonie aqua wipes, but they are £10 for a box of 9 packs when on offer. Can anyone recommend some wipes that are just as good but cheaper? We just go through them so quickly.

I use boots unfraganced wipes

I use the Amazon Mama Bear wipes - 12 quid for 18 packs of 56 unscented and unfraganced wipes. They use the same ones at my nursery actually.

If we’re just at home, I use microfiber washcloths that I wet in warm running water, and I just wash them with her diapers. Cuts down on the cost of wipes a lot. 1 pack of 50 microfiber washcloths on Amazon is like $10 I think? There are many days I don’t use disposable wipes at all bc I’m only changing her at home.

I'd recommend using reusable wipes. I just cut up an old towel/tea towel and just wet it as I go xx

Or you can get reusable wipes if you want x

We love the Sainsbury’s wipes, they aren’t too dry which we have found with some of the other brands. They are like 60p a packet if buying individually x

We buy Huggies wipes, £9 for a box of 12 in Tesco and Sainsbury’s. We go through millions because we also use them for ourselves in the toilet. I prefer Huggies wipes to any other wipes because the wipes separate so much easier and I’m not sitting pulling out half a pack when just wanting one😂 so they’re very handy when you’re rushing because of baby😅 definitely my favourite and go to wipes!

Aldi £4 for a box of 6

If you have a Costco card cost wipes are really good quality 900 wipes lasted us almost 3 months I think it was about 15£

I do have a Costco card! Thanks I will try these!

Sainsbury’s own brand sensitive water wipes. £ 0.65 for one packet I feel are reasonable - and they are great!

Mama bear from Amazon

Avatar

Sainsburys own water wipes are great

Avatar

100% Amazon mama bear! They’re so good, I started with water wipes and these are so much cheaper and just as good x

Avatar

The Amazon mama bear ones are absolutely amazing. Tried all the supermarket ones nothing compares and I have it on subscription so never run out. When my box arrives I keep it upside down and the wipes are really really moist and lovely on baby’s skin

Avatar

The Lidl water wipes dupe (white pack) are the absolute best.

Avatar

Reusables are so effective if you don't mind washing them. I have a kit by the brand Cheeky Wipes, one for baby, one for cleaning. They're so good at basically everything

Avatar

Thank you everyone. Ive bought a few to try x

Mama bear Amazon sensitive

Avatar

Hey! I have been using mama bear baby wipes from Amazon since day one and they have worked wonders for me and make nappy changing so much easier. And they are great for sensitive skin my boy has never had an allergic reaction or rash to them and they are very gentle on the skin. The moisture to wipe ratio is amazing and they are quite affordable as well I usually get a box of 18 wipes for £12-£13.50 ish and they usually last me just less than a month maybe less depends on how many nappies we go through. But I love these wipes whole heartedly. I will add the link to them in this message so you can check them out.

Hope this helps ❤️❤️

Does anyone else’s baby spit up breastmilk but not formula?

I’m seriously considering seeing a lactation consultant because I don’t understand why he can’t hold down breastmilk but can formula. I use soy formula since I’ve used it with my daughter and I’m thinking it might be due to not getting milk coming in for a few days so I had no choice but to give him formula, but now even if I take breaks in between feeding him breastmilk to burp or try to mix breastmilk and formula, he spits it up sooo much. I’m ready to just give him just formula because I’m worried about him not eating enough

I think Motherhood has made me more bitter than I realized…

This is such a ramble but I don’t know where else to put it all.

I’m four months in and I don’t really have hobbies right now. I don’t do anything for myself except maybe doomscrolling or listening to a podcast while I breastfeed my baby. I used to craft and have game nights with friends. Activities that usually are at least 2 hour stretches. Now if I have an hour free my mind immediately goes to baby, or doing something in the house for baby.

And I thought I didn’t mind. Like I knew postpartum could be very mentally consuming. But I think it’s altering how I view people around me and it’s prodding at my relationship with my husband.

He spends most of his time making food for us, looking after our dogs, playing with the baby, ect. But he still has time for his hobby. Spends maybe an hour a night on it. Even adapted to using a bot for shopping for his hobby after a certain incident where we had to have a heart to heart after he left me home alone with the baby for hours during a busy workday (I work from home) to shop for his hobby.

And yet there’s like this little green eyed monster in me that rages every time I know he’s running off to start up the bot. Even though I’m the reason he does it this way.

We took a family trip last weekend to see his best friend and their kids and let them meet the baby. He brought the laptop. He’s always brought a laptop on trips and it’s never been a problem to me before. But one night we both woke up while the baby was still asleep, and he wandered out of the room. I tried to fall back asleep but couldn’t. So I went to the kitchen to try having something warm to drink to settle me. And he was there at the table running the bot from his laptop. I flipped out at him. But there really wasn’t reason to. It’s not like I needed help with the baby and he was ignoring me. He wasn’t avoiding our friends. He was just awake and unable to sleep and found something to do with his time. Yet my snap reaction was “why the hell would you do this on a family trip?”

I don’t know what it is. Maybe it’s the less complete sleep from baby’s middle of the night feed? My brain being just consumed by baby? Maybe I’m not as over that shopping incident as I thought? But I’m just so annoyed at his hobby right now. The green eyed monster thinks “you could be using that time differently” but realistically to do what exactly??? Stare at our baby in the dark???

I spent probably an hour apologizing to him after I snapped. And he’s of course hurt and frustrated because I said some very mean things in the moment.

I don’t want to be this jealous, angry person. But I also don’t know how to find time for myself in this right now outside of basic hygiene. It’s like I’ve forgotten how to be myself, even if just for an hour.

Maybe I need a therapist.
