Baby formula

Hello ladies, we’ve decided we are going to be using formula when baby arrives but have no clue what brand is the best? Does anyone have any recommendations? From what I’ve seen Kendamil is very popular but have also been told every baby is different 🤷🏽‍♀️

Stroller/pushchair

Has anybody bought or been looking into buying a stroller/pushchair for their little one yet? I’m going on holiday at the end of summer and don’t want to take my every day pram as it’s super heavy. I’ve been looking at the Kinderkradt Nubi2, Kinderkraft Apino or the Cosatto Yo. I’ve also fallen in love with the Eg...

Owlet Sock and Monitor

Does anyone have this and recommend it? I’ve looked at the reviews and they look amazing but it’s £399.99 (🤯) so I want to be sure before purchasing. Is it necessary? Does anyone have any other recommendations that are similar? Any advice would be greatly appreciated x

First Aid Kit

I'm trying to find a decent first aid kit that's appropriate for babies. Has anyone managed to find one, or do you plan to make your own up? I'm a bit confused about the child friendly kits, because most of the contents can't actually be used on babies. Many thanks!

Pushchair/travel system recommendations?

There are soo many different options and I’m keen to shortlist a couple so I can keep an eye out for them on Vinted/Marketplace (we’ll be buying the car seat new). Our front runner seems to be the Joie Versatrax - the Nuna Mixx doesn’t seem to be worth the additional cost when super suspension isn’t really something...
