REALLY????BABY CRY ANALYZER ?????

BABY STUFF - DO WE NEED ALL OF IT ?

I came across this on the website while looking at different baby stuff (I am addicted to shopping for things for Chloe) and couldn’t believe that someone has came up with such an invention.

Why cry mini -baby cry analyzer. Apparently this machine will tell you why your baby is crying : is it because they are hungry? bored ? sleepy? unwell? … Really??

I love gadgets and everything what makes life easier but this one is a step to far in my opinion. Do we really need something to tell us why our baby is crying? Are we really that lazy and in such a rush to get answers that we don’t have the time or patience to learn about our baby? To learn what they sound like when they are hungry or bored? The first few weeks when you get to know your baby and his/her needs are special and precious …. Isn’t this one of the reasons why we become parent …

Also is this not dangerous ? Relaying on the machine to tell you what your baby needs ? What if the mashine is wrong ? What if your baby is unwell but the machine tells you that your baby is bored? …

What is your opinion about it?

Do you have one of those and think that I am wrong ?

Please share you opinion.

Have a fab day !

ILL ABROAD !

MY BABY EXPERIENCE

Above Us yesterday before it all started ….

Writing it while laying on the hotel bed in Lisbon, Portugal waiting for Chloe to get up from her morning nap.

This meant to be the perfect last family holidays before I have to go back to work … Not the first time when Chloe gets sick !!! Yep I was lucky enough not to have Chloe ill until now.

She was fine the whole day when we were traveling except a bit of a runny nose, which I blamed on teething ! She went of to sleep without any problem and then at midnight it all kicked off.

Chloe woke up screaming with 39 C fever and such a bad runny nose that she couldn’t breath ! That’s when the panic started building inside me … What if giving Calpol won’t get the temperature down? Should I be asking the hotel for a doctor or an ambulance ?… Why is this temperature not going down (2min after giving calpol) ? …

Chloe would be waking up every 10 minutes crying for the next few hours … I think that we managed to settle at around 4am …

Luckily I had thermometer , calpol, nose spray and this little funny thing to clean baby nose with me … Or shall I say luckily I had Calpol as the rest wasn’t really helpful to me. You see I have taken the forehead thermometer which as it turns up reeds different temperature every second, Chloe would scream whenever I went enywhere near her with nose “thing” (don’t know how this thing is called) or the nose spray so I couldn’t use it.

After googling baby temperature on NHS website I found out that you shouldn’t use forehead thermometer on babies as it isn’t accurate (hhhmmmm why do they sell them? Why do they market them for babies?) and that with baby over 6 months I shouldn’t panic yet (easier said that done!). I ended up just giving her lots of breast milk and water to keep her hydrated and Calpol to keep the temperature in control.

Luckily Chloe seems very happy this morning with her amazingly good appetite (she loves hotel breakfasts) and so far good morning nap so fingers crossed we went thorough the worst. Now we just need to go to the pharmacy to get more Calpol and old school thermometer 😊

ANOTHER DAY, ANOTHER MEAL …PANCAKES WITH APPLE,PEAR AND BANANA

DESERT RECEPE

ANOTHER DAY, ANOTHER MEAL….

PANCAKES WITH APPLE,PEAR AND BANANA

Those are great from quite a young age (around 7 months) as a breakfast, desert or a snack ! Chloe and me loves then !

Ingredients :

– 300ml of milk

– 1 tsp of baking powder

– 225 g of plain flower

– 2 large eggs (beaten)

– 30g of melted butter (don’t have to use it)

– 1 banana (chopped)

– 1 apple (chopped very small or greater)

– 1 pear (chopped)

Cooking method :

I usually do a bunch of mixed fruits pancakes and the few of just one flavour, but really you can do whatever you fancy! Chloe loved those pancakes as they have a lovely sweet flavour and are packed with fruits which she loves!

COATS TIME !!!!!!!!

YUMMY BABY & KIDS FASHION

I have already showed you a small winter coat collection few weeks ago. Now that Autumn is definitely here and shops are now full of the coats I decided to pick what I think is the best out there. I would advise you to buy your baby writer coat now that you have the biggest and best choice; as they do sell very quickly, especially the really nice one.

The choice is very big in styles and colours. When it comes to the baby coat/jacket you can go for whatever you like as they will look super cute in everything!

Small selection from Next (www.next.com)

Those beauties are from ZARA :

This very cute and smart selection is from Monsoon (www.monsoon.co.uk)

H&M also have some amazing coats, like those :

Lindex also have some really nice coats like those :

ANOTHER DAY, ANOTHER MEAL … VEGETABLES AND LENTIL CURRY WITH CHICKEN

DINNER RECIPE

ANOTHER DAY, ANOTHER MEAL …

VEGETABLES AND LENTIL CURRY WITH CHICKEN I have made up this one, but surprisingly it has turn up to be very tasty😊

Ingredients :

– 1/2 red pepper

– 30g of red lentils

– 50g of peas

– 50g of aubergine

– 1 can of chopped tomatoes

– 1 small chicken breast

– 1 onion

– 1 garlic cove

– 2 tsp of mild curry spices

– 100ml of coconut cream

If your baby started eating more solid foods like Chloe then chop everything in to a very small cubes; If your baby still eats purees then cut everything in to chunks as it will be blended anyway.

Cooking method :

Fry onion and garlic until golden, then add curry spaces and lentils, and a minute later chopped tomatoes. Bring to the boil and simmer for 10 minutes.

In a meanwhile I roast my aubergine and chicken on the frying pan. You don’t have to do it but I find that this is the only way to cut chicken in to small cubes (I can’t do it with a raw one) and that aubergine keeps its consistency better when cut in to small cubes.

Add all of the other ingredients except peas and simmer for another 10 minutes. Add peas 2 minutes before the finish time. Hope that your baby will enjoy it

DESSERT : Yogurt with Blackberries

If your blackberries and sweet you natural yogurt, if the are quite sharp then add your baby’s usual flavoured yogurt.
