What should my baby wear to bed ?

Well hello cold weather. This sudden change in temperature can be challenging for new parents, mainly because you have to figure out what to dress baby in at night. Little bubbas can’t regulate their body temperatures on their own so it’s important they don’t overheat. This can be a real worry as it’s one of the leading causes of SIDS.

Tayo was born in a crazy heatwave , so for the first month of his life he literally slept in a short sleeve vest because our room was between 28-31 degrees every night. Soooo hot erghhh. When the temperature started lowering I found myself questioning what to dress him in. I found a great image online that tells you all you need to know really, so I thought I'd share !!

Leaving Baby Behind

Ahhhh so its most nerve wrecking time of any new mum...heading out for the first time without baby. Admittedly theres no 'right' time to take the leap but I'm thinking the earlier the better?

So I'm currently sat on the tube with the smallest bag I own with all of four things in it to take FULL advantage of not having to drag around a changing bag. Tayo is only just 3 months old and today I left him properly for the first time while I head out for a friends hen do. To say I'm anxious is an understatement, not because I'm worried about how my husband will cope, because I know he's going to be absolutely fine, its more how I'm going to cope being away from him for a day. Im sure after a few prosecco's my nerves will be calmed but that initial 'bye baby' was gut wrenching.

Got milk ?

From the start I knew I wanted a breast pump so I could share feeds with my husband, mainly so he had time to bond with our son, but as well as this, so we can share night feeds, and I'm not the only one awake at night. Funny thing is, once Tayo arrived, little did I know I wouldn't be pumping to share night feeds at all but so I could feed full stop...
