The Best Newborn Nappies

| January 7, 2012

Did you know the average baby goes through around 5000 nappies, that’s a lot of nappies!

After trial and error with several brands of nappies, I can thoroughly say the best newborn nappies are Huggies Newborn Nappieswhich are made from organic cotton.

We found Huggies Newborn Nappiesprovided the softest and most comfortable fit for our baby, as well as reducing the chance of leaks.

I used to buy my baby’s nappies from the supermarket, until I discovered you can buy Huggies Nappies from Amazonin bulk at a much reduced price and with free delivery.

Once my baby reached Size 4 nappies we moved into Huggies Super Dry Nappies.They’re superb for going the distance at night time and perfectly fit our very wriggly, almost crawling baby!

If you’re wanting to take your baby swimming Huggies Little Swimmersare the best nappies for use in water. Enjoy splish splash sploshing about without any worry!


 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

Jackson Reece Baby Wipes

| January 6, 2012

There’s no comparison if you want wipes that are gentle on your baby’s skin and can be used on the delicate areas of both the bottom and the face, very necessary once you start weaning your baby!

Having tried numerous other brands I recommend Jackson Reece Baby Wipes for delicate and sensitive skin. They’re free from parabens, alcohol, lanolin, Sodium Lauryl Sulfate (SLS), Sodium Laureth Sulfate (SLES) and many other harsh chemicals.

Jackson Reece Baby Wipes are mild and gentle cleansing wipes, made from a unique balm to soothe and protect baby’s delicate skin using natural ingredients of aloe vera, tea tree oil, lavender essential oil and purified water.

No Stretch Marks with Trilogy Rosehip Oil

| December 13, 2011

Here are some excellent natural and organic skin care and beauty products I discovered when pregnant. I simply can’t live without these, even now as a Mummy!

If you want some real pampering when pregnant using natural and organic skin care products, so as not to absorb any dangerous chemicals through the layers of your skin, try the brilliant range of Trilogy Skincare products.

Trilogy is a New Zealand company who use organic Rosehip Oil, renowned for it’s restorative and anti-ageing properties. Trilogy do not test on animals.

As an added bonus, I was lucky enough to get through my pregnancy without one single stretch mark to show for the 9 months (+2 weeks!) of my gradually blooming tummy, thanks to Trilogy Rosehip Oil.

I put my luck down to the regular use of Trilogy products, gently rubbing Trilogy 100% Natural Certified Organic Rosehip Oil over my expanding belly, which helped to prevent stretch marks and was a wonderful way to bond with my growing baby as I talked to her at the same time (she thought it was marvelous having a gentle daily massage and rewarded me with plenty of little kicks and punches)!

I like to use the Everything Balm as a body moisturiser, it smells divine! 

I still use Trilogy 100% Natural Certified Organic Rosehip Oil as a facial oil during winter to keep my skin moisturised and the Trilogy Everything Balm is multi-purpose so worth carrying around in your pram bag! 

I’m so glad I used Trilogy products when I was pregnant, I couldn’t have done without them – and they’re such great value.
