Mould on car seat

We had a spare second car seat and we’ve just got it out of the loft and it’s covered in mould. One option is to get this professionally cleaned. Would you be happy to use it after it’s been cleaned, or do you think skip it and buy new? 😭 I’ve also seen videos online suggesting using ‘The Pink Stuff’ but I’m not…

How to wash baby clothes

Hey, sorry if this seems like a silly question, but I don’t have any family members to ask. What temperature should I use? What detergent is best? Should I use fabric softener as well?

Leaving hospital

Does anyone have a fixed car seat meaning they won’t be bringing it into the hospital to leave? What are you using instead to take baby out of hospital? I’m thinking we will be fine to carry them or use the bassinet of the pram instead but for some reason really overthinking this 😂

Hand luggage duty free

Strange question but we are flying with Ryanair. With just the free under seat bags. I was hoping to order nappies and formula to the boots at the airport. But wondered whether I would have to fit these into my under seat bag or whether because they were bought at duty free they don’t count. As if I have to prove my...

Grandparents car seat

Hi Mums Myself and my parents now have the Joie360 in our cars. Other grandparents had the MaxiCosy baby car seat (can’t think of the type, Pebble maybe) - anyway - they’ve accidentally got rid of it so now they don’t have a car seat for when they have her. Baby’s auntie tends to collect her from London and Nan an...
