DS (nearly 2) was transfixed by this for some reason

DJ gets broody too, thank fuck he's had the snip.Grin

I have heard/seen many women make comments about this advert but I have yet to see it!! What is the general theme??

HandragsAndGladbags · 06/10/2013 20:40

I wept.

I am 10 weeks pregnant with dc3 and am not sure if tears of joy or trepidation Grin

Wipe your kids arse with Johnsons products and your the best parent ever, lots of family bonding with baby in dappled light deep fried in cheese with grilled mozzarella on top and shavings of Parmesan with a side order of corn.

Grin @ bootsy. Sounds pretty lame Smile

monkeynuts123 · 06/10/2013 20:52

All I know is I didn't want another baby and now I do! Powerful advertising or what. Oh it wasn't lame, it was divine! I think the hormones kicked in.

It is absolutely grotesque in its mawkishness

UriGeller · 06/10/2013 21:29

they don't mention it'll make your baby smell weird .

Oh, and its entirely unnecessary to slather a newborn in cosmetic fragrance.

They are already soft and smell delicious.

Johnson's baby products are Crap with a capital C. I was using (expensive, gifted) natural skin care products on my little girl, but when I ran out I turned to some Johnson's stuff that I had also been given. Her skin got dry, flakey, inflamed. The difference in her skin was so remarkable I've gone off cheap cosmetic products for life. Au naturale all the way for us now.

Layl77 · 06/10/2013 21:33

It made me think "aww that gorgeous baby will get scabby skin off that crap perfumed stuff"

HabitualLurker · 06/10/2013 21:34

You lot are right soppy bananas. It just made me feel a little nauseous..

bootsycollins · 06/10/2013 21:35

I'm baffled as to what is the actual purpose of Johnsons baby lotion, it's not a moisturiser or barrier cream, my auntie reckons it's just for freshening up baby's bum after a pooey nappy.

TheCrumpetQueen · 06/10/2013 21:37

I luffs it, made me get a lump in my throat

hettienne · 06/10/2013 21:38

Awful advert, and I never used any products on my baby, but still made me well up Grin I do have pregnancy as an excuse though.

Latara · 06/10/2013 21:56

I had to turn it off, I don't want to see cute babies in long adverts when I can't be a mum now/maybe never.

dimdommilpot · 06/10/2013 22:18

It made me cry. I am 14weeks pregnant with DC2.

cheeseandbiscuitsplease · 06/10/2013 22:36

It's a lovely advert but it made me think about anyone who wants a baby but can't. It would've killed me when I was ttc.

It is the foot-kissing part that makes me feel soppy. :)

cheese that is so true. :(

Johnson & Johnson can fuck the fuck off. Vivisecting wankers.
My beautiful DD's have grown beautiful and very much loved without the use of chemical laden, animal tested shite. Angry
