Artipoppe carrier?

Heya. Thinking of buying an Artipoppe carrier. I know it’s over priced but I will be carrying my little human for the next two years and would like something pleasant to the eye and touch
So:
1) does anyone have one already and if so any reasons why NOT to buy one?
2) also, does anyone have a friend recommendation code/link?

I have 2 and I love them! Also I have a link if you still need one :) I’ll message you it

Yes please!

I disagree that they're over priced. Cost-per-use mine has been used far more at 5 months than pretty much anything else we bought.

Reasons not to buy? Baby likes it too much and will choose it over the pram every day of the week 😂

which ones do you have? And do you machine wash them? I know website says machine washable but heard a couple of people saying that when they arrived the instructions said appt clean only

I think I’m going to buy one too, very pricey but I think worth it. I don’t wear any black and I love the cream ones however I’m worried it will get ruined very fast?!

I’d love a link too please love!

Hahaha

Ok ladies. Gimme a code lol! 🙌

sure! I’ll message you!

hi Ada, I’ve got the grey leopard print and the black and white tweed. I’ve never really needed to wash them to be honest. I’ve only ever spot cleaned them! I have seen other people wash them on a gentle/cold wash though if needed!

I’ve messaged you both, lemme know if you can’t see it!

I've spot cleaned mine quite a few times, not had to wash it yet!

Bought it! Nothing like an impulse buy on a Monday morning! 😅

😂😂 which one did you get?

I preordered the swan monogamy white one:

Was between this and black zorro one. Maybe get that one next… once I try to pass my recommendation link to some friends haha

you might like this one too since main colour is cream and organic cotton

I've got the black one as I wanted it to complement my outfits as much as possible 😂

Yeah . It’s a nice minimalist one. I will have to get that too at some point

oh that one is really nice!! I also had the black Zorro one at one point but then regretted not going for something bolder so I sold it 😂

Haha kinda what was in my mind when I went for this. I thought I would prefer something a bit more fun as I usually go for the plain minimalist ones

I also love the denim one!!

agree! That is also cool and versatile

please could I have a link!

If anyone wants £50 off an artipoppe just message me! ☺️

Hour night wakes and 5am get up

Can anyone shed some light as to why on earth my child doesn’t want to sleep??? My eyeballs are bleeding!!

Never been a good sleeper, but the problems always changing. He’s nearly 9 months old.

Beginning of the month he dropped to 2 naps. We could put him to bed at 7pm and he’d get up for the day at 6am, with multiple wake ups every 2/3 hours.

Now we put him down at 7pm, he can do a good 4/5 hour stretch, but come 1/2am he’s up every hour then getting up for the day at 5am. This then completely messes up the day because I can’t keep him awake long enough to even get to 7pm, let alone later.

He has 2 naps, roughly about 1hr10 each but it changed based on when he wakes and trying to get him to a reasonable bed time.

What could be the reason for this? 6am is fine, but 5am is not 😩😩

Over supply of milk

I am nearly 5weeks postpartum and I have such a big over supply of BM.
Has anyone donated / sold their supply, if so where do you recommend for this?

AITA

In the uk there is an outbreak of meningitis, in a specific area mainly. My BD has family from that area and decided to go and meet up with them, I said if he does then he cannot have contact with the kids for 7-10 days after incase he picks anything up. Am I being over dramatic? I reallyyy don’t want my young kids getting anything serious

I think its fair

Me and my partner agreed to sleep in 1 day of the weekend.
He doesn't find it fair to look after both kids (my 4 year old isnt his) while i sleep so he looks after the baby while i sleep and my toddlers at his dads and ill look after both the next day.
Straightaway it was pretty unfair as i let him sleep in until he wakes up 10-12
He wakes me up when baby starts fussing because he wants milk (doesnt need it)
I cant pump as i dont supply enough.
So i get woken at 9/9:30 to feed baby then i get him sleep then theres no point sleeping in as my toddlers being dropped off.
I also find it unfair that i get both kids to sleep most night, i get my toddler to sleep everyday hes home (4/5days) and i get my baby to sleep most nights with the exception of maybe twice a month as his dad struggless then about 95% of his thru the day naps.
I have also been unwell for a few months (tumor scare) and am waiting 18 weeks to see a specialist so im obviously petrified for that, so unbelievably tired and alot of aches and pains, specifically these pounding headaches ive been having.
After i had been up til 11:30 getting both kids to sleep lastnight and my partner falling asleep at 10 then him ignoring the baby cries all morning until my toddler woke up im fed up slammed to door and rold him not to expect to sleep in unless he gets the baby to sleep the night b4.
I keep having issues with him not feeling the wet from baby being sick or weeing himself or being able to smell it do about 98% of the time hes given to me i have to clean him up n change him.
Including at night, we agreed my partner would change nappies (1 a night at 5am) while i feed (2,4,5,6:30) but every night when i get him hes pissed through and my partner gets annoyed when i wake him up n moan about it.
Then the morning after hes annoyed at how much washing there is (thats his job) and moans about how often i change myself (baby constantly shits thru and sicks on me) and baby
Honestly im just so tired all the time

Baby clothes

Just out of curiosity, why do parents love zipper onesies?

Don’t get me wrong, I tried zipper ones it’s easy to zip in and out when putting it on the first time and taking it out, but I find it difficult when changing diapers especially when baby is asleep.

I prefer those kimono style buttons where it’s easy to button or too down button with crotch snaps.

Is everyone thinking the same or different? Lol

Car seat
