bad advice - you both didnt die SIDS
we changed to grobags from swaddling and our parents told us we were wasting our money as we didnt die in our sleep WTF???? after awhile we gave up trying to explain that while we didnt die, many babies did and we are trying to reduce our childrens risk!
all newborns/babies must be washed at least once day! (MIL)
well 1 my son cat napped so while he was sleeping i was trying to
2 his got bad skin and bathing would flare it up
3 he didnt move today and i washed his bum!
i recieved some shocking bad advice
my mum was told by her mum to prepare her nipples for BF before i was born by scrubbing them with steel wool! (my mum didnt dare)
good advice a midwife gave me for engorged boobs was fill 2 disposable nappies with water and freeze them and apply to boobs when hot and painful and then refreeze (cabbage leaves are good but dont last she said)
