  The Contented Little Baby Book of Weaning

Excellent – Love love love this book! I used this book when i weaned my son onto solids at 4 months and i couldn't be happier. Just like Gina Ford's other books, i couldn't recommend it

more. A must for parents weaning their babies onto solids. Step by step guide to weaning your baby onto solids, from as early as 4 months. suggestions for types of foods to introduce and when. Lots of recipes to try. This is a British book, so some of the words (eg names of vegetables) are different to what we would use here (eg courgette = zucchini)

  Blackmores Pregnancy and Breast-Feeding Gold

Excellent – I am currently pregnant with my 2nd baby and again am using this product. With both pregnancies, i started taking these capsules a few months before conception and had a very

healthy 10lb boy the first time. In a few weeks, I am expecting my 2nd bub. My obstetrician approved of my choice in this product, and I have never had any problems with it, aside from the fact that the capsules are quite big and i sometimes find them hard to swallow. Easy to find - available at most supermarkets and pharmacies, reasonably priced, trusted brand None aside from the fact that the capsules (you take 2 each day) are really big and can sometimes be hard to swallow

Terrible – I was pretty unhappy with this shop. I ordered an Oioi carry-all nappy bag online from these guys and it said online that this bag was in stock. They charged my credit card the

next day after I ordered, so i figured all was OK. However, 2 weeks later I still had not received the item, so I gave them a call and left a message (as they did not answer the phone) and also sent them an email. I did get a call back the next day saying the bag was not in stock and would be 2 weeks away, and they told me i should've received an email notification that it was not in stock. I told them i never received any emails aside from the one confirming my order had been processed. 2 weeks later I still had not received the item, so i called them again and was told it would be another 2 weeks at least. Finally a total of about 6 weeks after I had initially placed the order, I got a call saying the bag was on its way to me. I received the bag within 2 days of that phonecall but i am not happy with how much they stuffed me around and will probably not shop with these guys again. Good range of products and prices but aside from that, not much else I was happy with. Order very slow to arrive, however they are very quick to charge your credit card for it! Hard to get in touch with them as they do not answer the phone - but if you do leave a message, they do get back to you. If you email them with a query, takes days to hear back!

Good – Overall i found these guys were really good - I bought a Phil & Teds stroller with toddler seat, plus some other bits and pieces for baby no.2 and the prices were pretty much

unbeatable I found. The stroller and everything else arrived within about a week of me placing the order, but they did not have the toddler seat to go with the stroller I ordered. They gave me a call to let me know it would be 3 to 4 weeks until it was in stock, so that was fine. A month later I still had not received the seat but they rang me and told me it would be another 5 to 6 weeks. It finally did arrive, a total of about 10 weeks after I initially placed the order. Lucky i ordered it long before bub was due, otherwise I would've possibly been stuck with 2 kids, and only a single stroller with no double seat! Best price i could find on the internet for the stroller i bought, super quick delivery for items they have in stock, they also don't charge much for delivery I had to wait quite a while to receive one of the items i ordered from them, which they did not have in stock at the time I placed the order.

Good – We bought this booster as we are having a second child now, so our toddler has graduated to this booster. It's a pity most boosters don't come with in-built harnesses as those

are usually a lot easier to use, but we did buy a separate harness to use with htis seat and it is quite secure, so pretty happy with this seat in general. Slim design, so it fits easily next to another car-seat, comfortable, adjustable headrest which can be adjusted as baby grows, not too expensive If using for from 14kg (minimum toddler weight to use with this booster chair), you need to buy s separate harness to use in conjunction with the car's seatbelt, and the harness is quite fiddly to use, but once you have the seatbelt and harness lengths adjusted as required, it's not too bad.
