boppy nursing pillow review
. . . this is a sponsored post
the boppy pillow has been elected "baby of the year" in America by consumers for an outstanding seven years in a row!! The stretch panel stretches to fit most waists. And with so many funky slipcover designs to choose from, you can match your nursery, home, or personal style.The pillow is uniquely designed with a recessed interior perfect for babies little bottom. Also can be used for when baby starts lying on tummy to prop themselfs up, and perfect support for when baby starts to sit up. The pillow is multi function and isnt just a "breast feeding" pillow. Its designed for maximum hygiene and saftey.
My kids are aged three and one and i breastfed both of them, My back was in agony with taking all of babies weight when feeding. . . and posture? dont even talk to me about that!!
i havent used the pillow for feeding KT as she is off bottles now but i use the pillow for when im watching tv or when sitting at my laptop and it has helped my back pain alot. Im not as stiff when im standing up after using the pillow.
When i was preg this was one item i didnt think i would need or use for a long time, and would be a waste of money but im soo wrong!! I WISH I HAD ONE SOONER!! It can be used for many years and when baby is older it can be used for a neat little seat :) KT loves it!! It came in a funky pink design and matched her princess room just nicely!
My friend is preg and i have already order one for her, its a special unique, funky gift and i know she will just love it too!!

Method Laundry detergent. . .
. . . Another free sample!! :)
I'm fast becoming a sucker for sniffing out free samples, Lol! That's two this week!! Today I was sent some 'fresh air' Method Landry Detergent to try.

What I thought about it. . .
I'm crazy about making my house smell amazing, I have plug-INS all around my house and also secented candles dotted Round the place too, I love raining days when I can dry my clothes on the radiators and fill my house full of my lovely washing powder smell, crazy I may be... But I love my house and clothes smelling perfect! So today I tried out my new 'fresh air sample' I have to say it smells great, easy to use one hand washing! It has a pump on the top to squirt it into the drawer 4 pumps = 1 wash
I had a few of KTs bibs in there too which were covered in that awfull orangey red stain you can never get out!! Crossing my fingers I put on my mashine, hoping the new detergent would smell great and I wouldn't have to wash them again, Lol!!
Mmm.... Washing done and clothes smell FAB!! Even KTs stained bib had faded alot more than my normal detergent.
The detergent has got new smart clean technloogy that seeks out dirt and stains!! I didn't believe it untill I tried it myself, Perfect! My towels were also nice and soft and left my clothes smelling really fresh and clean.
The bottles are small but mighty! Its no bigger than a normal sized bottle of fairy liquid, great for the environment, greener 95% plant based, biodegradable formula, ultra concentrated for 35% smaller carbon footprint.

What do you do?
I have always been a strong beliver in discipline and teaching my children about respect. I'm not a mummy that believes in smacking my tod when naughty.
When JK does step out of line I give him a warning and if he continues to misbehave I then put him on the time out spot for 3mins. He soon realises he was wrong and he then stops. I also have a reward chart with tasks for JK to do each day and he gets a smile for each one he does. We have rules to follow as well which we all sat down a wrote out with JKs help. He is a well behaved boy and I am always getting compliments on how good he is. Not that I'm being bias or anything, LOL!!
He does have the odd huff but never has he taken any tantrums.
My friends don't discipline there kids as much as I do and a few of them use smacking as a way of dealing with naughty Tods,I'm not saying there kids are monsters but the bad behaviour does continue. What kind of message are they giving out by smacking? And what does it achieve?
When I'm at friends house and if there tod was beig naughty and friend smacks tod when I am there I can't help but feel weird. I truly can't see the benefit of it, and I think I would feel bad if I ever done it to JK or KT.
Everyone has different ways of dealing with situations, WHAT DO YOU DO? What discipline and rules do you use at home?

Teething!!
My baby girl Is teething!! She is still sleeping through until morning but during the day is a little grump! I have tried everything to ease the pain from her lumpy gums, calpol, bonjela I've even tried gving her a baby tooth brush to bite on which I used for when my son was teething but nothing seems to work with KT.
With the summer being here, I have started buying icepoles during my weekly shop.NOt thinking KT could have them but for my son and his friends. KT saw JK with his and was checking it out! I soon gave her an un opened one to bite on one day when she wouldn't stop moaning and touching her gums, she stopped crying instantly!
Now everytime she is teething I reach for the ICEPOLES giving her half at a time.
A cheap teething tole which works wonders for red swollen gums!! It has also help her burst the gums for the tooth to come through!!
What have use used when baby is teething? Have you found any alternative to the over the counter products??
