Thought i would start a thread where we can all share where we have bought sensory toys from to help each other find some bargains!

Wow!! What a minefield! Has anyone got advice on baby carriers. We tried the wrap type when baby was a little smaller and he absolutely hated it. I want to buy one which faces outwards as he is nosy and I think this would go down well... but he is also probably close to 15lbs now.. (5 months) so would need one ...

My husband is dead against them, but I really want to get some for my LB. He's a runner and I'm slow and pregnant, so for me it would be a win win. Without any reins I'm hesistant to get LB out of his pushchair as he will just run away from me. Thoughts on reins?

Does anyone know about about carry for car seats? Are they safe? I’ve never heard of them before until this morning. My grandad is 91 years old and can no longer drive so we will need to travel to him for him to meet the baby (which is about a 3.5hr drive away) when he is here but I’ve read that babies can’t be in c...

My little one seems to be reacting to Johnson’s, I’m just wondering what bath products we’re all using? I’m planning to head to Boots and pick up new bath products for little one and don’t know which ones are particularly good for sensitive skin.

Hi all, Looking for buggy board recommendations. We have an Ocaro, and ideally want a buggy board that doesn't stick out too much/is easy to wield. Thanks in advance for any suggestions!

Can the Calpol vapour plug in be used for babies aged 8 weeks? My little one is really congested and got a cold. We have tried the saline drops, taking her in the bathroom with steam but nothing seems to be easing it. On the packaging it says to use from 3 months. Do you think this will be ok?

My MIL and SIL are quite judgmental. Especially over parenting and the way I choose to parent my children. if we have no plans and aren’t expecting any guests, honestly I don’t rush to dress my kids (2 and 1). I allow them to stay in their jammies until we need to go out, or until someone’s is coming over. In my opi...

Just looking for some recommendations for travel prams, not necessarily for flight travel but just for ease as our travel system pram can be super bulky and heavy when wanting to make a quick trip! Thanks in advance☺️

Good baby wear slings please? I’ve tried a couple with my newborn and I can’t find anything that’s right was starting to think she was too small she’s 2 weeks old not sure that’s the case as she’s now over 3kg which most start from. I have a toddler so thought would make it easier going to playgroups and being out...

My baby is now 11 weeks old. I have size 1 nappies that she’s grown out of and a couple of MAM bottles that haven’t been used (my baby is exclusively breastfed) but I hate the thought of throwing them away, knowing someone might need them. Do you know where I can donate these or if anyone wants them? I can post

My baby is going to start solids soon and I’m super excited!! Looking for some high chair recommendations!!

I'm expecting my second baby in april. I hated the carseat I used with my first daughter. it was a nightmare to transfer anywhere 😫 someone is holding a nuna for me right now, but I just wanted opinions from other mommas on here first! if you use(d) the nuna, did you like it? what other carseats would you guys…

Heyyyy! I’m looking to buy a good baby camera/monitor. I have the Nanit Pro on my registry but it’s so expensive! Anyone have any recommendations on some that are just as good but cheaper? (Would love for it to monitor baby’s breathing etc) if possible.

Has anyone seen or used these car seat jackets? It opens in the middle by a zipper like a jacket so that they can be buckled but still have that jacket on. I hope that made sense. But does anyone use one? My mother in law tried to by my son something like that but I said nope.

My son is 3 and still hates having his hair washed and brushed. I’ve tried having him help, washing it with a cup, washing it with the shower hose, using a kids pitcher and using those hat things the make it where their face doesn’t get soaked. I’ve tried different soaps to see if what I was using was hurting his ey...

I have ebf my 4 month old and while I’m at uni for a couple of hours he may need a bottle. I want to express but not sure where to start.

These are all the toys my baby has. I feel super insecure when I see or hear how many others have. Is this enough? Thanks

My boy has now outgrown his car seat and we are looking for recommendations about a new car seat which will last as long as possible. He is 91st centile in height and weight so I don't want to be in the position where I need to buy another one too soon! Would anyone recommend theirs?

I have an ulcer on my inside cheek that will not budge! I don’t think you’re allowed to use bonjela in pregnancy (?) - what else can i use? (I’m doing hot salty water already) but need something more, ouchy!
