How To Adjust Your Baby’s Sleep When The Clocks ChangeRead More The idea of messing with sleep times can feel daunting, when you’re a new parent that’s fighting for every little bit of rest they can get. So we’ve teamed up… Post author By The Mum Club Post date 21 October 2024 How To Adjust Your Baby’s Sleep When The Clocks Change Welcome to the week where everyone else gets a lie in. The idea of messing with sleep times can feel daunting, when you’re a new parent that’s fighting for every little bit of rest they can get. So we’ve teamed up with Just Chill Mama aka Rosey Davidson to bring you a few ways to approach the clock change and help your little ones adjust in advance. The Best Ways to Prepare for The Clock Change This autumn, on Sunday, October 30th, our clocks go backwards. This means that if your children wake up at 6 a.m., it will actually be 5 a.m. *Yelp! If you’re feeling apprehensive, here are some things you can do to navigate the change. 1. Prepare a few nights before Does your child go to sleep and wake at a similar time every day? Rosey says, “I highly recommend preparing for the clock change in advance.” “You can do this by pushing their bedtime forward by 15 minutes each day for the few days in the lead-up to the clock change. You will also need to adjust the rest of their schedule (naps, meals, feeds etc.) by the same amount of time.” 2. Make a last minute adjustment Rosey says, “The night before the clock change (dependant on which way they’re going) put your little one to bed half an hour later (if the clocks go backwards). In theory, this could be the little tweak that will help get them closer to the ‘new time.’” 3. Make early wake up times really dull If your baby is waking up ridiculously early, Rosey advises “To keep things dark and boring for a little while to signal that it’s not quite time to get up yet. They will gradually adjust with time.” Wake up clocks can also help with older children. 4. Make some changes to your routine We all take a bit of time to adjust to the clock change, but Rosey says, “There are things we can do to help our internal body clocks to catch up.” The following things will help both you and your children sleep better: -Get lots of fresh air and natural light. -Eat at new times. -Reduce screen time before bed. -Continue with a predictable and relaxing bedtime routine. 5. Try not to stress about it “Remember that the effects of the clock change will be short-lived – within a week or so everyone should be back to normal!” says Rosey. 6. Look after yourself “It is also really important to look after yourself”, says Rosey. “Make sure you go to bed earlier than usual to prepare for the possibility that your little one might wake quite early while they are adjusting to the ‘new time.’” The best products to help your baby sleep Need some extra tools? Here are a few TMC picks that might help both babies, and parents sleep better. Baby Bedtime Bubble Bath 500ml JOHNSON’S® £3.50 Humming Bunny Night Light Moonie £59.95 Sleep Mist Childs Farm £7.50 Portable Blackout Blind Tommee Tippee £32.99 Coco Mat Naturalmat Baby £235 Groclock Sleep Trainer Tommee Tippee £29.99 (Sale) 3 Steps to Help Babies Sleep To help parents and children adjust, JOHNSON’S suggests a tried and tested routine to help babies and toddlers sleep better in just one week. Step One: Warm Bath Bath time is the perfect, relaxing way to start baby’s pre-bed routine. Along with engaging your baby’s sense of smell, bath time encourages skin-to-skin contact, which can lead to improved physiological, cognitive, emotional and social development. JOHNSON’S Bedtime Bath is designed to gently cleanse baby’s delicate skin and leave it feeling healthy. Step Two: Gentle Massage Research has shown that routine touch and massage improves sleep quality and quantity when part of a before-bed routine. A soothing baby massage can also help you recognise and respond to your baby’s body language and is the perfect way to make your baby feel secure, loved, and ready for sleep. Step Three: Quiet Time After giving your baby a warm bath and a relaxing massage, it’s time to send your baby off to sleep with a little quiet time together. Close contact between you and your little one helps calm your baby’s breathing, relaxing your baby for bed — a great reason for a post-bath cuddle. Keep the atmosphere calm and cosy and help your baby wind down further by reading or singing softly.

Reviewed By Us: Cybex e-Gazelle S PushchairRead More Post author By The Mum Club Post date 21 October 2024 Reviewed By Us: Cybex e-Gazelle S Pushchair Reviewed by: TMC CRM Co-Ordinator, Andi Venardos Pros Electric stroller with self-rocking handsfree function and e-assist lever for rough terrain, uphill and downhill 20+ configurations with car seat, seat pack, bassinet and basket Compact fold and self-standing Durable, stylish, easy to manoeuvre and sturdy Super spacious storage basket Cons Seat unit is on the small side but it does lie flat and can be used from birth A little awkward to fold down & requires two hands to do so Overall Thoughts Words can’t describe how cool this is! I don’t know who loves this stroller more – my husband, my children or me. We call it the Tesla of strollers. It is the best stroller we’ve owned as it’s multi-functional (20+ configurations) and electric! It has multiple seating options and the capability to transform into a double stroller adapting to the needs of my growing family. I have two children under 2 and it means I can actually leave the house with two happy and comfortable babes, walk on footpaths without feeling like I need a wide load sign stuck to my back and through shop doors without getting stuck! The electric assist feature is a game-changer and makes pushing two children around so much easier. It was also extremely helpful, especially after my c-section. It rocks itself which means the kids can be rocked to sleep when I’m out and about AND it means I get to enjoy a coffee while it is still hot. What is it and how do you use it? An all-in-1 Modular System electric stroller that you can adapt with virtually endless ways to combine Gazelle S seat units, Gazelle S cots and baby car seats. Controlling the pushchair is so simple, as the lever and user interface are built into the handlebar. The auto-rock feature is fantastic and means there is no need to stand there and rock the pram back and forth or buy a separate gadget to soothe your baby, simply press a button and it does it all for you. When on uneven paths, walking on different terrains or going uphill and downhill that is when the electric assist works like magic. You just push the lever and off you effortlessly go. Its compact and self-standing fold means it fits easily in my small car and it doesn’t take up too much space in our house. The frame is surprisingly lighter than I anticipated it would be being electric – which is a bonus! The super spacious storage basket is so great for storing all the bits (crap) you need for kids and it can carry up to 23kg. The brake also features a green and red indicator, so when baby brain and tiredness are in full swing, you have a visual to know you’ve put the brake on! Was it good value? Most definitely – I can’t imagine life without it. It’s a great investment due to all the attachments you can purchase that are compatible with the one base/frame, making it functional for many years as my children and family grow! Yes, it may be slightly more expensive than other products on the market but it’s electric (the only one to exist) and you cannot beat the features it has. You can tell this pram was so well thought out and created with busy mums and growing families in mind. Would you recommend it? Without a doubt. Cybex prides itself on safety, without compromising on design and functionality and I recommend it to any parents who want to invest in a durable, safe, innovative and multifunctional stroller that adapts to your families needs. It’s a such great stroller for one child, and if you have 2 or more it makes life 1000x easier. Tip Purchasing the Cybex e-Gazelle S Pushchair in a bundle with all of the attachments from the get-go is the best value for money. With everything you need from birth to approx. 4 years old, with siblings or even twins, you’ll enjoy complete peace of mind. Highlights – Adjustable Handlebar – One-pull harness + easily adjustable – A strategically placed mesh window keeps them cool and helps the air circulate – The e-Gazelle S folds into a convenient storage size, compact enough to easily fit in the boot of a car – Adjust the roomy seat unit into an ergonomic lie-flat position to provide comfort and support from birth – 23kgs of carrying capacity is spread throughout a super-spacious stroller basket and a detachable shopping basket – Extendable XXL Sun Canopy made of UPF50+ protective fabric shields your child from the weather and their surroundings – Move the e-Gazelle back and forth with an automated rhythm to gently rock and soothe your baby to sleep, all at the push of a button – Effortlessly glide up the steepest hills and over the roughest terrain with e-powered uphill & uneven surface support easily controlled by a user-friendly lever – 20+ Configurations – Control the speed of your e-Gazelle S with a user-friendly lever integrated into the handlebar. Set the rocking intensity, check the battery life and power on or off as you like via the user console Product Specs – Age range: From birth up to approx. 4 years – Child weight (in single mode): Max. 22 kg – Child weight (in duo mode): Max. 2 x 22 kg – e-Gazelle S frame including wheels – Seat Unit with rain cover (hard parts and soft goods) – 23kg super-spacious pushchair basket – Shopper basket – Bumper bar – Sun canopy – Battery and Charger – Dimensions Unfolded: L 945 – 1075 mm, W 660 mm, H 1000 – 1100 mm – Dimensions Folded (most compact): L 360 mm, W 565 mm, H 775 mm – Weight 14.7 kg Latest Deals From Retailers £1,049+ View Now

The Best Facials for Your Very Tired FaceRead More Post author By The Mum Club Post date 15 October 2024 The Best Facials for Your Very Tired Face Resembling a zombie? It’s time to schedule some time out and book in for one of these skin brightening treatments. 1. Best for Getting a Glow (That Lasts) “Skinwork facials are a step up from what you usually find on the high street, as science-led treatments and products are used in every facial they offer. My new favourite treatment is the Skin Fix Facial, which lasts 50 minutes and includes a deep cleanse with extraction, a high-tech heated mask, a mini massage, microdermabrasion, and a lactic and mandelic acid-perfecting peel. Not sure what all of that is? It doesn’t matter, as all the expert therapists are highly trained and will tailor whatever facial you choose to suit you. I always leave feeling like my skin has had a real clean out, and the glow lasts way more than a few days.” TMC Editor, Lydia House Skinwork Skin Fix Facial 2. Best for Hydration Things like forgetting to drink enough water or constant breastfeeding mean that new mums are more prone to dehydrated skin than anyone. So a facial that concentrates on hydration is just what you need. Hydrafacial is our favourite way to regain a glow and is a high-tech treatment that you can find pretty much everywhere. It’s even available in Jersey!” says TMC Co-Founder Lauren Webber, who gets her fix at Elizabeth Butler Aesthetics. The high-tech machine has a wand that can exfoliate, extract impurities, and deliver potent serums to the skin. Like a top-tier car wash, your skin looks clean, polished and a darn sight less tired. HydraFacial 3. Best for Lifting “I instantly felt lifted from my FACEGYM treatment, but the biggest takeaway is that you need to consistently do it to see results. I’m not interested in getting Botox or enhancements, and I found this is a great way to get similar results in a natural, non-invasive way. I had my first treatment last year in my 2nd trimester (just the hand sculpt – you cannot use the EMS technology when pregnant) and have since gone back to have many more treatments. They also gave me tips and exercises that I could do myself at home to help with maintenance between treatments.” TMC Brand Partnerships Assistant, Andi Venardos FACEGYM Signature Sculpt 4. Best for Skin-Plumping “I went to this one a few months after having my son, and it was absolute heaven. Each facial is tailored towards your individual skin needs. My skin was quite dehydrated, so after a deep cleanse and exfoliation, the therapist applied multiple masks and paired this with massage to help boost brightness. It made my skin look so much better. I looked fresher, and it was lovely to take a moment for myself.” TMC Co-Founder Lauren Webber 111 SKIN Celestial Black Diamond Non-Surgical Face Lift 5. Best for Relaxation “Let someone take care of you (and your face) for a change. And book in for this dreamy holistic facial. Perfect for new mums or anyone who needs a rest. It takes you to new levels of relaxation, as they use guided meditation to help you pause external thoughts and the constant drill of your ever-growing to-do list. Your face is given a deep cleanse and exfoliation as you’re cocooned inside a warm blanket, and then they apply soothing and nourishing treatments. You also get a luxurious massage with warm ceramic Akwaterra pods that boost circulation and brightness. And while the skincare works its magic, crystals are laid on and around you, and your mind is calmed with guided breath meditation. It’s pure heaven!” TMC Style and Content Creator, Luzaan Shaw The Harmony Facial 6. Best For an Immediate Glow Fancy a trip to Chelsea? Make sure you stop by Sarah Chapman’s newly-refreshed skincare hub ‘The Glow Hub, which offers a menu of quick, concentrated treatments with glow-giving effects. Offering micro versions of the longer treatments found in the main treatment rooms, it’s the perfect place for busy mums who want a quick lifting massage or an LED boost. Our favourite treatment is the Glow Boost + LED Glow Pod, £100. The combination of lifting massage and LED makes skin look immediately more radiant and youthful. Sarah Chapman Glow Boost + LED Glow Pod 7. The Best £250 Laser Facial For £50!!! We’re obsessed with Skin Laundry and their innovative facials. We particularly love their Signature Laser Facial, which helps with breakouts, rosacea, pigmentation and builds collagen. And their currently offering The Mum Club readers an amazing discount which is worth £200! And as an exclusive for first-timers. If you’re a newbie to the salon, you can book via the link below and get their incredible Signature Laser Facial for £50!! *Which is normally £250! *To claim your offer, book via the link below and then prove you’re a The Mum Club member at your appointment by showing them you’re logged in or the newsletter. Book Here 8. Best For Younger Looking Skin Not for the faint hearted. Potenza is an advanced treatment at Therapie Clinics, that uses dual action microneedling to cause slight trauma to the skin and stimulate healing. The device also uses radiofrequency, which creates deeper collagen production and skin tightening. The needles don’t put anything into your skin. Instead they shock it, which encourages it to produce collagen (the thing that makes it look younger). And after your very red face calms down (it takes a few hours), there are a few days of recovery, where skin feels dry and you can’t have hot showers or workout. But after that, you should notice a real difference, with most people reporting glowy healthy looking skin. We admit getting home (with a red face) and the actual experience wasn’t ideal, but within a few hours we’d forgotten about it and the results were so incredible, we’d definitely have it again.

Pipe the chocolate onto the top of each blueberry, ensuring the blobs come together. *Or use the back of a spoon if you’re feeling lazy. 6. Top with candy eyes. 7.

Reviewed By Us: Philips Lumea IPL 9900 Hair RemoverRead More Reviewed by Lauren Webber, Co-founder Post author By The Mum Club Post date 7 October 2024 Reviewed By Us: Philips Lumea IPL 9900 Hair Remover Reviewed by Lauren Webber, Co-founder As a busy mum and business owner, finding time for self-care can be tough, so I decided to try the Philips IPL Hair Remover at home. And after using it for a couple of months I’m hooked. Pros Convenience Long-lasting results Fairly pain-free. Cons Time investment upfront Initial cost Not for all skin tones/hair types What is it? The Philips IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) Hair Remover is a handheld device designed to reduce hair growth over time. It uses gentle light pulses to target the hair root and prevent regrowth. You can use it on various areas, like your legs, underarms, and bikini line – all from the comfort of your own home. Overall Thoughts? “It’s been a great investment for me. I love that I don’t need to worry about shaving constantly, and it’s saved me so much time overall. However, it does require a bit of commitment, especially in the beginning. I noticed a reduction in hair after just a few sessions and a real difference after about 4/5 treatments. As the hair grew back it came back in patches but each time i did it the patches and hairs reduced and after the 6th or 7th time i’d say i had barely any re-growth.” Is it Worth The Money? “If you’re looking for a long-term hair removal solution, I’d say it’s worth the investment. While the upfront cost is higher, it’s much more affordable than repeated salon treatments. Plus, the convenience of doing it at home is a win.” Would I Recommend It? “Yes, especially for busy mums who need a more convenient and lasting hair removal option. Just be prepared to invest the time initially, and make sure it’s suitable for your skin and hair type before buying.” £539.99 View Now
