I got given 3 so didn't need to buy any, sort of thing that Mothercare would stock.

I got a three pack from mothercare recently :)

Was told not to bother and just use regular towels, but I find I do actually prefer the hoods, especially when they start to run away from you after a bath...you can at least hook the hood over them and it keeps the towel on ;)

DS has an incredible one from IKEA that makes him look like a wizard. Far too big for a newborn though, newborn we used mother are hooded towels but to be honest rarely used the hood! He also a ducky one as a gift. Super cute though.

Ikea have about 3 different ones. Mothercare have them and I bet if you check online or ask instore as I'm not sure if they would be in the baby or the bath section John Lewis, M&S, Debanhams ect will have them. In fact I reckon most of the supermarkets will have them as well although you may need to look online.

Otherwise, any online baby shop will have them!

I had a few but the nicest was from Dunelm. It was bigger than the others and much thicker.

I got a free one from Persil in my newborn Bounty bag (I know, they're the devil, they sell your details and prey on postnatal hormonal women... But I'm a sucker for a freebie!).

Otherwise, Mothercare or Asda, I'd suggest.

I've seen them in John Lewis but I would think Mothercare would have some too?

I was bought one as a gift (fairly recently I might add as baby is still a bump). Have no idea how useful it will be yet but it was from matalan so I imagine very reasonably priced.

I think I saw them on offer in Asda.

I got a 3 pack from boots for around £12. With DC1 we were given lots as gifts. Most were from home bargains and they're still going strong 2 and a half years later!

My friend has a lovely couple of fluffy hooded towels from the White Company (twins). They do pink, blue and white, large and small.

I had a cuddledry towel which went round your neck like an apron which I found more useful. It also had a hood.

I found them useless. The towels that go round your neck look really good. I haven't got one, I've just got wet clothes.

Sainsbury's sell them too.

Oh gosh, i had forgotten about hooded bath towels. It has made me all nostalgic for baby bath time. My ‘baby’ is currently trying to cram more stuff into the car as she is bound for uni. I am having a little wallow here.

I've just been to IKEA and they have some really big ones which would definitely last a bit longer than your standard baby (postage stamp) sized ones.

Our ikea ones are still used by our 8 yos.
