Hi moms! 😊

I'm looking for perfume recommendations. What are your favorite perfumes that last all day and get lots of compliments? I like feminine, fresh, and elegant scents, but I'm open to all suggestions. 💕

Thanks!

I love all of these, but have been obsessed with Henry Rose lately. They don’t use any carcinogens or endocrine disrupters which I love. You could start with one of their small sample packs to find the scent you like but can’t go wrong with any of them. “Torn” is my everyday scent.

Juicy couture gold couture is my #1.

JLO Still. Burberry body. Lancôme miracle. Miss Dior Dior. And the Victoria’s Secret body mists they smell lovely for an every day spritz, I have their shimmer sprays too that have glitter in them. I don’t like the Jadore one I gave that to MIL

Alien by Muglier. Period.

Clean Reserve has a lot of fresh scents.
DG L’Imperatrice
Jo Malone English pear freesia
Miu Miu- white bottle
Maison margiela Replica- Bubble bath

I’m a huge fan of Kayali, although I think she’s better at gourmand scents.
But try Wedding Silk Santal, I think it’s elegant and has some fresh notes.

Jo Malone anything 🥰

Kayali Oud gasm. Kayali Yum Marshmallow. Kayali Pink Pepper. Marc Jacob’s daisy. Bakarat Rouge. YSL libre intense

Bvlgari - coral , amythst and rose goldia
Jo Malone - English pears
Calvin Klein - women

Kissing babies 😩

(For context my son is in the NICU!)

Yesterday my mother in law kissed our son 😩😩 I was so shocked as I thought everyone knew you don't kiss a new baby let alone one born 3 months early and is in the NICU 😭😭 I did say to her "op, I don't think you're allowed to do that" and she apologised but I didn't want to make a scene or make it awkward as it was just me and her there, but I think she only thinks the no kissing applies to the NICU and not for when we're home aswell 😩

I told my husband but (no offence) as a man he didn't even know about this rule!! I have told him before especially when explaining about the RSV vaccine in pregnancy but baby was born so early I didn't have the chance to get that vaccine 😩

Not sure what I want from this post other than to rant 😩

Sleep 😫

Does anyone else’s little one struggle with sleep or start waking super early? Our little boy used to go to bed around 7.30pm and wake around 6–6.30am at best. But for the last 3–4 weeks he’s been waking anytime between 4.45–5.15am, which is getting pretty exhausting 😩

He’s 12.5 months old — could it be the heat, an age thing/sleep regression?

Night time nappies

I’m looking for tried and tested night time nappies as I’m losing my mind with the overnight leaks 😩
My little boy is now moving into size 3-4 depending on the brand and I feel since we’ve gone up a size, I can’t seem to find a nappy that doesn’t leak. He’s wet through then he struggles to go back to sleep after. Ive tried Tesco and Asda so far. Bonus points for budget friendly!

Does this look like chicken pox please?

I will be speaking to pharmacy for confirmation but it is currently 6am and they're not open 🥴

On her belly too

4 yo does not understand- you got to close your eyes to get back to sleep at 4am… who has this problem?

My 4 yo has always been a poor sleeper and early riser. If something wakes him at 4am the sleep pressure is too low for him to sleep easily and only extreme daddy cuddles in a black room works 😅 but otherwise he just wont close his eyes to go back to sleep… im sure if i took him in the car seat he might fall asleep but im not doing that!

My friends 6 yo does this too! Who else? My 1 yo has NP going back to sleep if dad is next to him, i just saw him sit up and look around n say daddy 545 am as i secretly crawled out the room. Went back 15 min later and 1 yo is fast asleep again… i dont think my hubby even moved or woke up!

This damn heatwave

Giving me such bad anxiety. My baby is drinking roughly a similar amount of milk as she usually does but the wet diapers have reduced so much. I introduced a little bit of water yesterday as a part of her nappy had somewhat of a darker yellow colour.

I am always on edge waiting to see whether my baby has a wet nappy. I try to keep the room as cool as I can with a fan but I think I'm going to buy one of those portable AC units just in case we get more heat waves.

I also just feel so disgusted and sloppy during this time - I'm just consumed with worry.

Last heatwave, my baby also did not produce anywhere near the same amount of wet nappies she usually does but was fine after the heatwave. I just get worried she will now get dehydrated
