Maxi Cosi Opal Car Seat Review

In general you have 2 choices of car seat styles for new born babies, a rearward facing one (which will last 9-12mths), or a forward facing seat that will last until the baby is 18kg or thereabouts.

Tear-free hair washing with a Munchkin Shampoo Rinser?

Another interesting test for us, as even “no-tears” shampoo irritates Abbie’s sensitive eyes (inherited her Mummy’s downfalls poor child!). The “device” holds quite a bit of water, so one or two fills rinses the hair clean, which is a bonus when it’s the least favourite part of bathtime! Does it keep water away from the face/eyes?

“Nobody puts Baby In A Corner” Babygrow

Everyone wants the Dirty Dancing babygrow with *swoon* Patrick Swayze’s immortal quote on it. We know this to be true. We know this because we get lots and lots and lots of hits every day from people searching for it. Sadly this is because we have in our directory a company who no longer stock it… so your search is fruitless. BUT! Help is at hand – we’ve found a new one! For 16 of your pounds, you can get one...
