My son has just come out of the NICU. How do I use these? Sorry for the silly question.

Not a silly question! You want to unpop the shoulder popper and unzip the bag and open it out. Lay your baby at the top, on top of the bottom layer. Lay the top layer over them and fasten the poppers at the top over their shoulders and zip the bag back up. They will be cosy in no time 😍

He basically just goes side it. How old is he? My little one was a Nicu baby was too small for it at the time so heating just had to go on. Message me and I’ll send you pics if you’re stuck x

Not a silly question at all just unbutton the two buttons at the top of the sleep bag and unzip it then just put baby in and button the button back over babies shoulders and zip it back up. My son seemed to small in his so I just folded the excess fabric under him making sure he was placed at the bottom of his bed 🥰

Finding out gender

Has anyone found out the gender at a private scan at 14 weeks? And has this been accurate?

I found out at 17 with my first but I know a scan place that offers from 14/15 weeks and I’m impatient 😂🥲

Induction?

Anyone been induced before? Was it more painful? Better than thought? Worse than thought? Worth it? Thoughts?

Baby names

My daughter‘s name is valentýna and I’m struggling to find other nice girl and boy names beginning with V I’ve got a few and I’ve got loads that aren’t beginning with V, but I feel like I wanna go for all vs and I also love girl and boys names that match so because my daughter’s name is valentýna I would love to call my son Valentino my husband does not agree 😃

Induction or c section?

As a last resort, would you rather be induced or have a planned c section?

Really not liking the thought of being induced from people’s experiences I’ve read!
