    Default Baby Planners?

    Hi ladies,

    I'm very new to the site, but have been following these posts from afar since giving birth to Leo - who recently turned 1.

    My pregnancy, birth and what came later was hard for me as I don't have any family to help out so it was very much sink or swim - thank god for my ever so helpful husband.

    ...but it got me thinking how much a helping hand would have done for my sanity at times not to mention stress levels, which leads me to ask - would any of you have ever used a Baby Planner? I'm wondering if this is a service I could offer other mums with a view to catering for all budgets. Let me know your thoughts.

    I don't think it's a service i would have used but i have 5 brothers under 16 so have had a hand in helping raise them so i felt a little more prepared than most.

    What kind of services would you be offering as a baby planner?

    Bellybelly was my baby planer! Gave me the answers to any questions i had from how many singlets to buy to recommendations on prams and cots.
    So no, i guess i wouldn't pay for a baby planner. But i'm sure people would.

    Default Baby Planners?

    Hi guys,
    Wow that was fast!! Thank you for your replies.
    I hear what you say, definately not everyone would require a baby planner or afford it for that matter. I thought perhaps a 'manual' type thing for those who basically want the A-Z of what to buy, what to eat, how to plan, local health & wellbeing providers, market research, a 'baby budget' etc etc, would cater for those who literally don't know where to start - to the full monty (i.e. personal shopper, baby shower planning, photography etc) for those who can afford to be more extravagant or those who are extremely time poor.
    Just a thought - am hoping to start some kind of business from home to try and stay with the little man as long as possible and become a 'contributor' again and have a focus of my own,
    Thanks again for coming back to me. x

    Just a thought, but maybe you could pick the brains of a reputable wedding planner, as the service sounds very similar
