Ask Claire

Claire is a mother of three, and as well as being a great mum, supremely knowledgeable in all things “baby”, she’s also a bit nuts about prams and baby equipment. While most people would be happy with one or even two prams, Claire has owned and tested more prams than you could shake a stick at. It is fortunate then, that Claire works for Baby Central and can be surrounded by some of her favourite things everyday. Or perhaps it’s us who are lucky. After a bit of press-ganging she has finally agreed to act as baby accessories advisor online to all of our customers. If you have a question about any item of baby equipment, or need other baby advice, just complete the form below and ask away.

Tips for Mums to be
1.In your last trimester try to relax as much as possible. Put your feet up and enjoy the peace and quiet.
2.To avoid or lighten stretch marks use cocoa butter every night from around 10 weeks.
3.In labour stay on your feet as much as possible, and move about lots. This can often make labour easier and faster.
4.Watch out for the “show”. The cervix – the neck of the uterus – dilates to allow the baby through during labour. This is sealed with a mucus plug, which is designed to keep out any infection. When labour is imminent, the cervix begins to dilate and the mucus plug comes away. This is called the show. Don’t worry. This can happen up to two weeks before labour actually starts.
