Pregnancy and Baby Advice Thread: From Conception to Birth, and Beyond!

I've used both Huggies and boots and I prefer Huggies but boots are fine. I like tr Huggies ones as they have the strips down the side and are easier to put on/take off.
I went to one parent and baby session and wasn't too impressed, it cost me £4.50 and apart from the fact they got some rubber ducks out and some floats they did everything we did! So have just taken her ourselves since.

What do they actually do in these sessions then?
I thick is rather take him myself, and that way hubby can come too, otherwise we've got to stick to the session times when hubby is at work

I went to some swimming lessons with Jacob before getting pregnant... They make them go around in circles on their front to get used to water. Then you spin them around and go on their backs. Next I didn't like was they push them to you, only about a meter away but do this kind of under water!
Which then made him scared of water! Yet he's always been a water baby. He's got his confidence back again but I am not taking him to them lessons again! Il teach him myself x

Hmm I could do all that myself!
I think I'll save myself some money and teach him myself x

Yea we've been swimming. The only thing with a nappy is it'll "inflate"
We used a little swimmers but ripped the sides open rather than pull it down... Once they've had they're first injections they're grand to go

I don't know any have you tried google ? I get intermittent nerve pain but it's not constant. Hope something helps. What about resting on a ball on all fours ?

 

[SammieAnn87]

Never got this with my first pregnancy! Its sooo different lol

I had calpol at the ready but Cole was fine. He had a nap as soon as we got home but he was due one anyway. He didn't change any of his routine or anything. He wasn't sleeping through then so we were hoping we'd have a good nights sleep but he still woke up twice in the night like he always did x

Thanks, I'm hoping it doesn't unsettle him too much! X

Can't believe how fast it's come round for you!! So exciting x

Metanium, it's fab. Cole's never actually has 'nappy rash' as such but a couple of times when he's poo'd a few times in a day it's gone a teeny bit red. Metanium cleared it up almost immediately x
