This is the feedback thread for the 100 Mumsnetters who hosted a baby massage class in their home, courtesy of WaterWipes. For those who did not attend, there’s still a chance for you to win – please see details below.

Here’s what WaterWipes has to say: “We know that the first few months can be an unnerving time for new parents. Baby massage is a great way to strengthen the natural bonds between parent and baby and we hope these free classes with a qualified teacher will give parents a fun and informative experience as well as equipping them with some new skills and the confidence to trust that they are all their baby needs”

1. What did you and your friends think of the WaterWipes baby massage class?
2. Did you feel the class provided a bonding experience for you and your baby?

Non attendee. The best time is when they sit and cuddle you.

Non-Attendee. After the baby is changed, fed and clothed and they're just playing with the toys and learning things.. thats the best time :)

bathtime and story time best time of the day

Simple when he smiles

Non-Atendee
I absolutely adore watching my baby doing different things every day!My favourite moments are when she is wide awake taking in everything around her, when she looks at me with her beautiful little face makes all the sleepless nights worth it!

Non attendee- I think it has to be bathtime which he absolutely loved....enjoying every minute so we had to let the water out in order to get him out! However time out in the garden comes a close second where he had duplicates of all my tools as he wanted to help.

my best moments are feeding my baby, nothing brings you closer

Non-Attendee.

He's no longer a baby but when he was, that first smile in the morning when he looked up from his cot and was so happy to see me - my heart would melt - they were my favourite moments

bath time is our special time. i play gentle music and bath my baby in a lovely warm bath.

I love bedtime - giving my daughter a bath and then sitting with her on my lap whilst she has a last cuddle all ready for bed. I love that time with her.

Non attendee - my favourite moments are where we are having sleepy cuddles together. Just so chilled and relaxed and not a care in the world , just thinking of how precious my son is

Non attendee- I love it when it is just the two of us

Non-attendee definitely the bedtime routine is my favourite, snuggles!

Non attendee. My children are older now, but the moments I treasure are when they were sleeping peacefully and I could just look at them and forget all the screaming etc that had gone before.

non attendee- quiet feeding time cuddles are lovely

I especially love when we're playing and she starts laughing her head off! It brings me so much joy to see her laugh and smile. :)

What are the moments you most enjoy with your baby?

When it’s just the two of us and am feeding my baby having that special bond in the peace and quiet were it’s just the two of us and I get to dedicate that time to my youngest child without the distractions of my other children

Non attendee
Breastfeeding my baby, the closeness is the best feeling ever.

Non attendee-my favourite moments are when my little one fell asleep on me and just looked sooo dreamy, it melted me and I didn't want to move in case I upset his little dreamy time! I could have sat like that for hours, felt like the best place in the world to be.

The spontaneous laughter when they discover something new

first snuggles with your new born is always the most special time i think , then after that , the first night they sleep through lol !!

Non Attendee -
The moments I enjoy the most is bath times, lots of mess, fun and giggles and then story time snuggles before bed

Non attendee- I enjoy watching as she learns new things and discovers the world, finding silly things to make her laugh (currently jumping up and down on the spot) and the sleepy middle of the night cuddles that can only be comforted by mummy.

Non-attendee here. My favourite moment with LO is getting him all warm & snuggled into clean PJs after a lovely bubbly bath together!

Non-attendee- My favourite time is when my daughter walks up next to me and takes my hand, I know it won't be much longer and she'll refuse to hold my hand any more
