Napping in baby swing

My baby falls straight to sleep in his swing chair and if I don’t get him out will sleep in it for over an hour- is this okay? He’s strapped in and supervised.

He's perfectly fine in a baby chair it was only a recent rule that its not advised. Nothing wrong with it . Keep just him supervised. 😊 mine use to sleep in the bouncer over night and was perfectly fine

Correct me if im wrong but you should not leave babies in bouncers/swing chairs to sleep as there is a suffocation risk as their heads can slump. They should only be laid on a flat, firm surface and deffo should not be allowed to sleep in bouncers overnight! There's advice on lullaby trust 😊

Do whatever you like, advice was asked for and I have done just that. Lullaby trust highlights what is safest for babies - can only do your best 😊

My boys sleep in theirs all the time 🤷🏼‍♀️ it’s recommended that they shouldn’t because of suffocation risks but if you’re keeping an eye on them I don’t see the problem . My first born slept in his aswell but we only ever do it in the day

You just do what you’ve gotta do sometimes . Trust your gut , you know your child better than anyone

Mine falls asleep in his chair / swing thing and I don’t wake him or remove him. I’m always there to make sure he doesn’t slump and is breathing ok 🙂

Colostrum

Started harvesting my colostrum last night. I managed to get 1ml from one breast (could’ve collected more but as it was my first time I didn’t want to overdo it) but when I went to collect from the other breast I got nothing, only a little drop. Is it normal to get more colostrum in one breast than the other?

Maxi Cosi Car Seat

Is this normal for the Maxi Cosi Pebble 360 car seat to rattle like this? The base is sturdy and all green tabs are showing, it’s just the car seat that feels loose!

Emma's Diary offers (not bags)

Sorry if this has come up before, I tried to search.

Has anyone successfully bought products from the offers section on the Emmas Diary website?
Where there are links to other stores with heavy discounts like 60%-90% off.
Seems too good to be true but Emma's Diary bags are legit (albeit full of marketing)

Im specifically looking at a product from The Nursery Store.

Thanks!
