My colleague goes off on mat leave and I am responsible for putting her hamper together (the only mum in the department), we have £160 but I can’t for the life of me think of what to put in it and what wo...

Nanobebe

So i was given some free nanobebe dummies when I went to the baby show earlier in the year. These dummies are the only ones my little boy will take and I can't buy them anywhere! Does anyone know where I can get them from or an online store I can buy them from? I only have 3 and they're the 0-3 month ones!

Double stroller recommendations?

Please share your recommendations. Are the side by side strollers, or the stackable strollers better? I’m most likely going to have 2 under 2 and need help

Changing formula

Has anyone changed from Kendamil to another brand? Baby girl is great on her formula but it’s getting a bit tiring with the low stock of kendamil!! Not sure if it’s worth swapping her into a different brand that’s easier to get hold of😫 what formula are your babies on?

Calling all people with black/ mixed curls!

My son is mixed and has lovely curls but the back of his head feels a bit dry. I currently use the African pride dream kids product range and the oil cream seems to work slightly but it hasn’t resolved it. Please recommend good oils or other hair moisturising things to try. His hair only gets washed once a week wh...

Doona car seat/stroller

Just got the Doona car seat/stroller and am super excited about it. Has anyone had it before and what did you think of it? How long was your baby able to use it? I’ve heard they’re amazing but babies can outgrow them quickly. Want to make sure I have a larger car seat ready for her as well.

Receiving blanket question

I know I could just use the hospital one, but I really want to bring something from home as a receiving blanket for my little one. Could I use this? https://a.co/d/3gYXCNq It’s muslin cloth from what I see. Does anyone have a different recommendation or experience to share?

Diaper sizes are ridiculous

My son is just over 1.5 years old. 26lbs. 2’8” (32”) height. He has always sized up in diapers pretty quickly, but he’s currently in size 6. He sized up from size 5 about 2 months ago, but now I’m wondering if he needs another size up… with size 6 it’s almost impossible to get it on without a cheek hanging out a bi...
