SHEIN BABY CLOTHES (5months)

Would you do it? They are so so cute but the quality?? They only wear them once or twice right? I’ll wash them first before wearing?

Or is it a huge NO!

I would avoid clothes from Shein have been found to have high amounts of led in them. Would definitely recommend Vinted instead I’ve got so many nice pieces on there for so cheap!!

I havnt brought baby clothes but girls party dresses which have been really itchy and uncomfortable.

My LO is in shein right now as we speak (me too 😂). Like mentioned above, wash before use and it'll be absolutely fine. I've found the best brand within Shein called Cosy Pixie I believe. Has the best quality! Could easily say it's from h&m!

There so many things wrong with them since people have gotten rashes from their clothes off that site

I haven’t bought my bby anything from there but I noticed 2 handle down dresses were from there and she was fine.

I ordered bits and sent them back. Purely because they all had the “keep away from fire” sign on them which just tells me the clothes are flammable.. I heard a story of a woman who apparently had a top from there and it caught fire and went up so easily 💀

Obviously baby shouldn’t be near open flames bla bla but the thought of it made me say no x

I baught my son a few small outfits from SHEIN when he was younger than 1. The quality wasn’t great and I ended up giving them away. But I’ve seen cute stuff.

I just buy all her clothes off FB marketplace. 3 months of wear us not long enough for me to justify the waste of buying new.

Also Shein is just a trash company in general.

In my honest opinion I wouldn’t. You can get better on Vinted if you’re not too fussed about buying used xx

i got some hand me downs for my boy & tbh the quality doesn’t feel nice & they’re button ups. i have no patience for that 😂

I absolutely wouldn’t from an ethical point of view? Putting my baby in a brand that abuses / underpays its workers feels wrong

My wee girl had loads of gorgeous stuff from shein and PatPat- was good quality the items I had so can’t complain x

I order off SHEIN for myself and my baby and he does fine! I make sure I read reviews and always wash (I wash everything no matter where it’s from) he hasn’t had issues and honestly a couple of the pieces fit so so cute and are super soft!

My sister bought us some bits for my daughter from Shein. Quality is cheap and awful. One of the bodysuits fell apart during washing (always wash everything before wearing).
I put them on my daughter for a few mins, took photos and sent them to my sister and then got rid of the clothing.

I don’t recommend Shein. Even if they were ethical (I’m not judging people for buying from them. Not everyone has the budget to avoid unethical brands or fast fashion), the quality is hit and miss.

I brought clothes from SHEIN they’ve been fine, quality depends on what stores ur buying from on SHEIN though and o usually size up so the clothes last a bit longer cause babies grow fast.

But in general regardless where you buy clothes from even if you buy from in store new clothes should always be washed before their first use for multiple reasons. Main one being at one point or another the clothes have been in a warehouse that goes for everywhere you clothes shop tescos, H&M boohoo, asos, next etc even if for yourself but especially for your baby as skin it more sensitive.

You can look out for 100% cotton on there

Asda george, Sainsbury's, Tesco, primark, vinted. Can find good prices and better quality than shein for sure.

Can someone pls help i keep making this post and nobody is responding

My boyfriend booked a trip for us to go to mexico for a week as my push present. I have severe anxiety leaving my 7 month old with my mom. I know she will be in good hands but she’s exclusively breast fed for the most part but accepts bottles just fine. i have all my pumping parts packed and will pump when baby normally eats but i don’t want baby to forget me or have latch issues when i return!! any mommas ever experience this?

Postpartum

I’m only 3 days postpartum (FTM) and already have extremely bad anxiety. I’m crying every night, as I think of another night of no sleep. My baby will not settle in his cot, he cries every moment we put him down unless in his chair rocker. So me and my partner are having to alternate after 3/4 hours of being awake with him downstairs. I’m trying everything to get him to settle. It’s a load of overwhelming stress. I’m 23, I was desperate for a baby and now I have one and feel completely useless. I miss it just being me and my partner.

When does it get better?

I was crying on the phone with the perinatal mental health team today and the lovely lady, bless her, kept assuring me that it gets better. I kept telling her I hope so because people have been saying that since having my LO and it just feels like it keeps getting worse. She assured me it gets better....

Night time routine

Heya, my 3 week old daughter is currently exclusively breastfed and I’m not pumping. Can anyone recommend the best way to share the load with my partner? At the moment I’m doing all the feeds/burbs/settling and my partner is sleeping through which obviously isn’t sustainable, I’m trying to work out the best way to get him involved. Any advice very much appreciated!

Rapid cool/ hot shot method

Sorry if this sound stupid but how are we doing the hot shot method?
Are we boiling the kettle and letting it cool a little before adding to hot flask? Then with the cool water do you boil the kettle and leave it to cool right down before putting into another flask?
My baby brain is fried trying to work out the easiest way!

Rant/WWYD

My sister (youngest, 24) has two kids, 4 & 1, and i (oldest, 30) just have my one who’s 6mo old right now, so i ask her for advice or call her to vent about things sometimes. Well im tired of her turning around and telling my other family members that I’m “losing my sh*t.” Literally have not lost my sh*t nor have i ever freaked out to her about my baby, i just call her to talk and tell her what stage my baby is in or talk through how im feeling, but she chooses to tell people that im like a complete nutcase or something which worries me that my family is going to start being judgmental about me as a mother or looking at me funny like I’m some fragile ticking time bomb.

What would you do in this situation? I’m already pretty much decided that I’ll stop telling her anything about my struggles, but I’m almost at the point where i feel like it should be confronted because she, of all people, should understand what I’m going through.
