I REALLY don't need a nursing chair!

My youngest child is 11. I really don't need a nursing chair, or any other nursery furniture for that matter. How long as these ads running for? It seems like they've been going for ages. I've clicked the cross and the "not relevant" option. I've hidden all the baby topics. Please make it go away!

Me too-ridiculous! My DC are teenagers; they also don’t have cradle cap😝

I agree. Although I haven't read the post, so maybe it makes a compelling argument as to why we do indeed still need a nursing chair...

Toooldforthis36 · 05/06/2024 06:58

My kids have left home - I don’t need one 🤣🤣

These adverts are very cringy IMO.

But companies will be paying mumsnet money to have them, so they shall stay.

As the old saying goes, Money talks

IamaRevenant · 05/06/2024 07:01

Haha yes. I do not need a nursing chair and I am not going to pay for a Mark Warner 'vacay', no matter how many ways you propose it to me

IamaRevenant · 05/06/2024 07:06

Also I do not have a daughter and if I did I would not need your tips on getting her into rugby.

Seriously I know MN needs to make money but can you mix up the ads a wee bit??

DoublePeonies · 05/06/2024 08:04

Agree.
Rugby and nursing chairs (and the vacation, now it's been mentioned - I'd not figured that was also an advert) are very prevalent. I was wondering if I'd outgrown Mumsnet - because and not just because they were there in duplicate, but because they never moved, making me think MN wasn't getting used very often, and so was dying.

Even just having them once rather than 2 versions would be a big improvement. And, no, I won't be paying for the premium version to avoid them.

BlowDryRat · 05/06/2024 08:42

I don't mind ads. I enjoy using MN and MN needs to make money. It's the repetition and long run-times that are irritating.

I have a baby and still don’t need a nursing chair! Does anyone? I feed my baby on the sofa or in bed!

HebeMumsnet · 05/06/2024 11:22

Hi there @BlowDryRat and others,

Thanks for highlighting this. We think we've fixed that now so the Nursing Chairs page shouldn't be appearing everywhere or as regularly. If you're still seeing it a lot, please let us know but hopefully it's sorted now.

DoublePeonies · 05/06/2024 11:31

@HebeMumsnet nope, not working. I've got 4 versions of nursing chairs and nursery furniture in my active right now.

Usernamesarenoteasy · 05/06/2024 11:37

It's literally about 3 posts beneath this one in active right now.
I never had a nursing when either of mine were small, I certainly don't need one now they're bigger than I am.

MuscariFan · 05/06/2024 11:44

Agree, so boring, and clicking through to the 'not interested' bits does absolutely nothing of any use either.

DoublePeonies · 05/06/2024 11:46

Me too! I’m still seeing the nursing chair adverts over and over again. Driving me up the wall!

BlowDryRat · 05/06/2024 17:41

They've gone! Thanks @HebeMumsnet
