Hi all, my mum uses a wheelchair but I can’t push a pram and wheelchair by myself. Does anyone else have a wheelchair user in the family and how do you navigate days out? I haven’t tried using the baby carrier and pushing the wheelchair yet but worried it would be a bit much for a full day
Hi all, I am local but looking for recommendations of places to go. My mum can only walk short distances or otherwise uses a wheelchair, however I have a baby in a pram so can’t push both. Looking for recommendations of places to go where we can rent an electric wheelchair - I’m aware of Keswick and Whinlatter already :)
I’m new to calorie counting so appreciate this is probably a stupid question … if you do exercise and get extra “remaining calories” is this still in a deficit? My app is set up to lose 0.5kg a week, not entirely sure what the deficit is exactly. Or does using those extra calories make you break even?
Hi all! Husband and I are very new to calorie counting and his birthday is next week - I would still love to do a birthday cake or cupcake to celebrate. Does anyone have any recommendations? Preferably as “real” as possible. We are based in England
We’ve booked our first hot summer holiday with our 6.5 month old baby and just wondering if there is anything I need to add to my shopping/ packing list:
Buggy and parasol
Clothes and nappies and sun hats
Milton/ UV steriliser/ Nuby/ bottles etc
Swim nappies and swimwear and towel
Inflatable for pool
Fan to attach to pram
Sun lotion/ baby wash/ baby moisturiser
Should I pack my own spoons for feeding? What about his bib? It’s all inclusive so I’m not worried about finding him food.
What should I bring for nightwear? Room will be air conditioned so will I dress him the same as normal - should I bring the temperature egg?
Hotel is providing travel cot - should I bring my own sheets?
Any other tips would be great obviously a bit stressful when it’s the first time!
Thanks :)
Just wondering what options there are for carrying formula/ nappies about when using the carrier! Do people just do a rucksack as well? Maybe a bum bag would stretch across the carrier? I have a baby bjorn mini and a mom cozy one if that makes a difference. Longer walks would have to be the momcozy as the baby bjorn mini doesn’t have a waist strap and puts pressure on my x section scar
I understand that 30 years ago the rules were different eg babies put to sleep on side/ stomach instead of back and weaning at 4 months instead of 6, I left you sleeping in the car seat for hours etc etc. All conversations I’ve had with my mum already. Today she found out my son sleeps in a sleeping bag and not with a blanket and she just couldn’t stop going on about it “back in my day that wasn’t recommended” I’m not sure I even believe sleeping bags were a thing back in the 90s. You haven’t held a baby in 28 years like things change sorry!!! Is there any reason to be so annoying about it, especially when (to me) sleeping bags feel so much safer - we have used a cellular blanket when baby sicked on everything else and he just kept untucking it and trying to pull it on his head
