Review: Theraline Wynnie Nursing Pillow

AD

 I recently had my third baby and as you can imagine my house is full to the brim with baby paraphernalia. But one baby item that I had never tried out before was a nursing pillow. As any parent to a baby will tell you even though babies are tiny they do start to feel rather heavy, your arms begin to ache when you are feeding them.

When my son was born I was very kindly offered the chance to try out a Theraline Wynnie nursing pillow . Theraline is a company who specialise in maternity and nursing pillow's.  They also sell other products such as baby pillow's - to help prevent flat head syndrome, neck pillows, for children to use on car journeys and maternity products.

Babies R Us Babyologist Baby Monitor Review

AD

* Babies R Us have now closed down in the UK *

When you have a baby there is so much choice available when it comes to what baby items to buy, especially when it comes to baby monitors. There are so many different makes and models on the market all with different features. As I am a bit of a worrier I have always wanted monitors that detect baby's breathing -  as I am forever up checking on my children multiple times during the night. 

 I had heard of so many people that their monitors kept going off for no reason during the night worrying them. So, in the end, I did not buy any and just brought normal monitors instead which turned out to be a bit rubbish if I am honest as they were really crackly.

However, a few week's ago I was very lucky to be selected to be a tester for Babies R Us and they sent me some new baby monitor's to try out that had babysense movement monitors included. This was perfect for me being a mum to a one-year-old and a newborn.

We were sent the Motorola MBP16 baby monitor and Babysense bundle.

Review - Baby Natal Newcastle Practical Baby Care Workshop

AD

* Baby Natal is no longer running *

When I had my first daughter eleven years ago I attended NHS ante-natal classes and read every baby book and magazine that I could get my hands on, when she was born I was shocked that I did not have a clue what to do with her. I had never been around a newborn baby before so I was frightened to pick her up, I did not know how to feed her or change her nappy or dress her and I felt totally clueless for those first few weeks while I figured out these things. 

Even when I had my second daughter last year I was still a bit unsure of things, as so much had changed in regards to baby care in the ten-year gap between my children. I bet I am not the only new parent who has felt like this, so this is where Baby Natal come in.

My Real Mum All Bran Challenge

AD 

If like me you think All Bran is a bland, boring cereal then you will be surprised to find that actually it is not like that at all, as I have recently discovered for myself when I took part in the #RealMumsAllBranChallenge. Brit Mums recently teamed up with All Bran to challenge some bloggers to try the new All-Bran cereals for five consecutive day's to see what we thought, here is how I got on.

Review: The skeleton cupboard by Dr Tanya Byron

AD - Review Item 

I have always loved reading ever since I was a child I have loved nothing more than getting lost in a good book but now that I am a mum of two ( soon to be three), I find that I rarely get the time to indulge in my passion for reading books. However, I was recently lucky enough to be sent a copy of The skeleton cupboard - a new book by Dr Tanya Byron by Mumsnet book club and I couldn't wait to have a read.
