Tip of the day

Never ask a child IF they need the loo... moodlum

Quote of the week

CaptainNancy's (admirably succinct) family rules: "Don't be a dingbat/duffer. Keep calm and carry on. Dream big. Shut up and get on with it."

Recipe of the week

Carmenere's cinder toffee: sweet, sticky, made-in-five-minutes toffee squares that'll spark off a few 'yums' among the 'oohs' and 'aahs' of your little fireworks-watchers.

Can't rate this highly enough. My second baby did not want to be put down and from six months old I could plonk her on this and get on with what I was doing. Great for housework, short school runs and trips to the shops.

OK for very short trips and to help correct posture, especially for slim-hipped mums/dads. However, doesn't help with the 'burning arm' sensation when carrying an up/down baby or toddler. Also, not hands-free, which is always a definite plus with other little ones liable to suddenly dash off!!

Personally, prefer a comfortable and of course safe/secure, hands-free carrier.

Yes it does make you sweaty around the waste. But I would not be without mine! Had no problems due to a bigger bust. It claims to be suitable for all sizes, but velcro does not stretch past a size 20. Having experienced back problems in the past and having a slightly large baby was very conscious about carrying baby around. Baby hated the slings and papouses, but is quite keen on this seat as they can get a good look around. Strain has decreaed on back since using this and used it to visit a stately home where a pushchair was not suitable. EXCELLENT!!

I really couldn't get this to fit right, but I am fairly petite. Everytime I used it it gave me backache and after a few attempts I sold it to another mum at toddler group who got on with it much better.

18month old loves helping me cook, and this is such a comfy way for him to sit on my hip without me standing awkwardly. Quite comfy as a pregnancy support belt as well! Can't imagine using it for more than a 5minute walk though
