We have the opportunity to influence the way our children feel by the way we treat them. Try to move away from generic “good girl,” “good boy” statements. The 5 A’s give children what they need the most – the sense that they matter.
ACCEPTANCE
Your affirmation gives your child a sense of security. Focus on their strengths and give them age-appropriate choices. Do not criticize when they fail but encourage them to try again. “You’re so special, there’s no one else like you in the whole world!”
APPRECIATION
Praise and encouragement give your child significance. Respond positively to their helpfulness and kindness. Acknowledge small steps of progress and praise them publicly. “I like the way you shared with your sister. What a thoughtful thing to do.”
ATTENTION
Your availability affirms your child’s sense of importance and self-worth. You can’t have quality time without quantity time. Play or read stories with them. Listen to them and have eye contact. “Wow! You’ve lined your cars up in a row.”
AFFECTION
Showing affection develops your child’s “lovability”. Find out and meet their love language. “Get ready for your night-time bear hug!”
ACCOUNTABILITY
Discipline develops character and self-esteem. Give them simple jobs and responsibilities around the house. Communicate expectations and consequences clearly. “I’m sorry, the sandpit is now closed because we don’t throw sand at each other.” © 2013 Focus on the Family Singapore Ltd

maternity bras
Support, nursing and sleep bras to keep you comfortable and fully supported in pregnancy and beyond.
Why should I buy a maternity or nursing bra? One of the first things you may notice when you discover you are pregnant is a change in breast size. Your breasts continue to change throughout pregnancy, sometimes going up a couple of cup sizes. As tempting as it is to wear your normal bras at this time, all our bras are wire-free ensuring nothing can dig in to your delicate breast tissue during this rapid time of change. When do I need my first maternity bra? When your current bras feel uncomfortable, often around 8 weeks. How often should I be fitted? It depends on your individual needs, but every 6-8 weeks is usually fine. How many bras will I need? It depends on your individual needs, but many women find four is about right. When will I need a nursing bra? Get measured around 36-38 weeks to be ready for when your milk comes in. What size bra will I need? Have a look at our step-by-step bra-fitting video online at mothercare.com

Maternity towels are essential for monitoring mum’s progress and blood loss just after the birth. Ordinary sanitary towels aren’t suitable during this time as they may mask signs of infection. 80-100 breast pads per week for the first 4 weeks. It’s common to experience some bladder weakness during late pregnancy or after your baby is born. Most continence problems can be cured or improved by speaking to a doctor or specialist continence nurse.

pushchairs With so much choice at mothercare you’ll find the perfect pushchair that suits your baby, your lifestyle, your growing family and your home storage!
What to consider Always check that the pushchair you like fits (folded) into the boot of your car and that it can fit (unfolded) through the narrowest area of your home – pay attention to hallways and the width of your front door. If you often use public transport or you travel on planes, you’ll need a pushchair that’s lightweight and easy to fold.
Think about where you will use your pushchair – an all-terrain pushchair will suit families who enjoy beach, woodland and countryside walks. You could choose a parent-facing seat so you can chat with your baby (as it really encourages language development), a forward-facing seat, or one that can face both ways.
What’s the choice?
Prams
Pushchairs
Travel systems
Most of our prams and pushchairs are suitable from birth. Prams typically have a lie-flat position suitable for newborns.
Pushchairs can be reclining, forward or parent-facing and can be suitable for newborns right up to the toddler years.
Complete travel systems come with a car seat that attaches securely to the conventional pushchair base.

As astonished as you may be, you’re not alone and statistics show that in 2011, 11,330 women gave birth to twins, 172 to triplets and 3 to quads or more!
Transport There are plenty of twin pushchairs on the market. It’s worth taking into account where you will store your pushchair and whether it will fit through your door (measure your door & hallway; if space is tight, consider buying a tandem rather than side-by-side pushchair).

car seats If you’re planning to take your baby on journeys in the car, you’ll want to make sure they have the correct car seat for their weight and that they feel safe, secure and comfortable at all times.
Babies can get very hot when travelling so remember to remove your baby’s outdoor clothing, hats and gloves (on long journeys), so your baby does not overheat in the car. On sunny days use a car sunblind.

Car seats are divided into groups – it’s the length and height of your child that is important when choosing a car seat for your little one. Our in store experts will provide a free safe fit to ensure the car seat you buy fits your child and your car.

Are you compatible? Not all car seats fit in all cars, always try out the car seat in your car to ensure it fits properly before you buy. Make sure that the seat you choose suits your lifestyle – consider portability and who will be using the car seat in their car. ISOFIX bases are also a good idea, see page 118

Car seats are divided into groups and it is your child’s weight, not age, that matters. Weigh your child before visiting a Mothercare store so we can help you select the correct car seat. Ensure you are clear on the benefits of keeping your child rearward-facing for as long as possible. There are a number of options once your child is ready to move into a Group 1 car seat and our car seat experts will give you all the information you need to make this decision. The make and model of your car is also important, if there are multiple cars that the car seat will be used in ensure this is communicated to our experts. Our car seat experts will demonstrate how to fit your chosen car seat and ensure that you are clear on the features and how to use them, leaving you confident on how to use the seat safely when you leave our stores. If you have an ISOFIX car safety seat and ISOFIX mounts in you car, you can minimise the risk of installation errors when securing your child car seat. ISOFIX is the standard system built into all new cars and seat manufacturers, designed to make installing your child safety seat quick and easy. With ISOFIX you simply ‘plug in’ a compatible car safety seat to mounting points in the car.

Being close to your baby, especially in the early days, helps you to bond with them as you can maintain eye contact with your little one whilst carrying them. Your baby will also be soothed by the sound of your voice as you chat to the people around you.
2
Great for manoeuvring in crowds – meeting up with friends is so much easier with a carrier rather than using a pushchair.
3
Using a baby carrier or sling means your arms are free – great if you also have a wriggly toddler, or need to get things done around the house but want your baby to be nearby.

Help to keep inquisitive toddlers away from stairs, or areas/rooms that are out of bounds (your kitchen for example). Measure the width between the walls and skirting boards for the correct fit. Decide which gates you want – fix to the wall or fix with cups (no need for tools). Do you want a manual or push-to-close gate? Manual requires you to press a button to close whereas push-to-close clicks shut. You can buy extensions for wider spaces and different finishes so that the gates fit in with your décor. Buying safety gates for the top and bottom of the stairs is a good idea to give you peace of mind.

What’s the choice?
Moses baskets
Cribs
Cots
Moses baskets are ideal as they're small and comfortable. They can easily be moved around your home making them perfect for daytime naps or longer sleeps at night. See page 146.
Cribs are smaller versions of cots and are suitable for newborns until about 6 months old (depending on the size of your baby). See page 148.
Cots can be used for newborns. Just remember to put your baby in the feet to foot position (your baby's feet placed at the bottom of the cot to minimise the risk of them wriggling under the covers). See page 150.
Cot beds Cot beds convert into toddler beds when your little one grows bigger and are a great investment. Remember they are slightly bigger than cots so measure your nursery before buying. See page 151.

mattresses Don’t forget a new mattress is recommended for each child as it provides better support and is more hygienic. Here are some useful tips to help you choose the right mattress for your baby...
What size mattress do I need? Getting the right size and shape is essential as little limbs can easily get caught in gaps at the sides and ends. That’s why we always recommend that any gap should be no more than 3cm. We have mattresses to perfectly fit all our current nursery furniture from moses baskets up to single beds, as well as special sizes for items outside of our range. To measure the size of the mattress you need, measure the internal length and internal width of the furniture.
Top tips Buy a new mattress for each child: there is a higher risk of cot death if a baby sleeps on a mattress previously owned by another baby from another home Make sure the gap between the cot or bed and the mattress is no more than 3cm all the way round so little arms or legs don't get trapped in gaps Check the fit of the mattress before you remove the packaging Keep the mattress clean, rotate it regularly so each end gets equal wear

baby monitors Baby monitors allow you to listen, see or monitor your baby's movements. Here are the basics
to help you decide what’s best for you and your baby.
What to consider The many different features on monitors offer you a variety of ways to check your baby is sleeping soundly and in comfort. It’s up to you to decide which monitor suits your baby, your home and your lifestyle.
Number of channels
Out-of-range indicator
Nightlight
Sounds & lights
The more channels the monitor has, the more frequencies it can tune into, giving you the clearest of signals at all times. Creates a soft and soothing glow and also allows you to check on baby without disturbing them by turning on the light.
Advises you when you have moved out of signal range from the baby unit, allowing you the peace of mind to move around freely. Parent unit displays lights that react to baby’s sound and movement.
Room temperature
Allows you to check the room temperature through the parent unit to ensure it is not too hot or cold for baby.
Monitors are not intended to replace adult supervision, so regularly checking on your baby is essential.

sleeping safe and sound Knowing your baby is sleeping safely will give you peace of mind and the ability to take some time to rest yourself – something you’ll be in need of in the early days of parenthood. Here are some tips to help you encourage your baby into a good sleep routine once they reach six to eight weeks old. Keeping a routine Here’s a simple routine as recommended by Norland College: •
Teatime feed
•
Playtime/reading with your baby
A consistent bedtime routine will help your little one know it’s time to sleep. Stick to the same order of a feed (or teatime if they’re older), bath, story and bed at the same time each night. (This order can be changed depending on your baby, but keep it the same each night.). Positioning your baby
•
Bathtime, dry and cuddles
Babies should always be placed on their back for every sleep including naptime.
•
Dress in night clothes
•
Lights low for bedtime feed
Always place your baby in the feet to foot position – so their feet are at the bottom of the cot and the sheets are half way down so they cannot wriggle underneath them.
•
Into cot/bed for lights out
•
Try not to cuddle or rock your baby to sleep as they will rely on it – instead let them fall asleep on their own.
The right mattress Make sure your baby’s mattress is firm, clean and has no more than a 3cm gap all the way around to stop little legs and arms getting trapped. If you use a sheepskin, take it away as soon as they start to roll over onto their tummy. Temperature Always keep your baby’s head uncovered when sleeping to stop them from overheating – take hats off at naptime and bedtime.
Always buy a new mattress for each child – there is a higher risk of cot death if a baby is sleeping on a mattress previously used by a baby from another home.
Did you know? Babies’ circadian rhythms (our natural biological cycle which tells us we should be awake during the day and asleep during the night) are not fully developed, which means small babies tend to sleep in the day and be up at night!

Tips: which bedding Choose lightweight blankets and clothing for sleeping or use a baby sleeping bag. In warm weather your baby may only need to be covered with a sheet. Remember, folded blankets count as two blankets. The ideal room temperature is around 18°C (64°F). If your baby is sweating or his tummy feels hot, remove some covers. If his hands and feet feel cool don’t worry – this is normal. Mothercare recommends a minimum of 4 fitted sheets, 4 flat sheets and 2-3 blankets.

preparing for bathtime Bathtime is perfect for bonding with your child, as well as washing away the day's grime. It’s also a great way of winding children down from a busy day and signalling to young babies that it's bedtime soon. Here are some tips to make it safe, easy and fun.
Things you may need…
* * *
Changing mat
* * * * * * * *
Non-slip bath mat
Top 'n' tail bowl Baby sponge or face cloths Baby towels Baby bath Bath thermometer Nappy cream Bath support Bath toys Bath toiletries
Never leave your baby or child alone in the bath, even for a moment.
224
Before you start… Make sure you have everything you need: towels, toiletries, flannels, baby thermometers, sleepsuits and nappies etc so you’re not rushing backwards and forwards. As bathtime begins… Undress your little one but keep their nappy on. Wrap them in a towel to keep them warm whilst you gently clean their face and neck. It's best to only use a small amount of baby toiletries in the early weeks – or just cotton wool and warm boiled water. Wash their hair over the bath whilst they are still warm and cosy, wrapped up in the towel. Next remove baby's nappy, wash their bottom and place them into the bath making sure you are always supporting them. Babies like to be held firmly in the bath as it helps them feel safe and secure. After bathtime… Have a towel ready for when you lift your little one out of the bath. And now for the rewarding bit – wrap them in the fluffiest towel and give them lots of cuddles!
a d v ic e
Top tip If your baby always cries at bathtime, spend 10 minutes playing, giggling and tickling their toes so they feel relaxed before you bathe them. Then make sure you tell them in a confident soothing voice what is happening. For instance, ‘now I'm going to wash your hair, but it won’t take long’ can help your baby feel soothed, even if they don’t yet understand what it means!

potty training Exciting, messy, stressful, progress, rewards, advice, potties everywhere and spare pants... However you view potty training, it’s a milestone that all toddlers go through; sometimes easily and sometimes taking a lot longer than you thought! Here are some useful tips to help your little one (and you) make a smooth transition from nappies to the potty. Is it time to start potty training? If your little one wakes up in a dry nappy or lets you know when they need the toilet it’s a great time to start training. Go on a potty buying trip to encourage your toddler to choose their very own potty.
Top tip Training pants will help your little one to feel grown up, but can also help if accidents happen. Choose elasticated trousers and skirts without buttons or fussy zips and buy bigger pants, which will be easier to pull up and down.
242
a d v ic e Before you get started... Talk to your toddler about the potty and how grown up it is to be out of nappies. Look for books you can read together about potty training.
Get everything you need from mothercare... Snoozie safari
Getting started Place a potty in the room where your child spends most time so there isn’t far to go when nature calls.
1. Snoozie safari potty X3905
Be patient Try not to get cross if accidents happen (which they will!) and trust your instincts. If your child doesn’t seem to be getting the hang of it, stop and try again in a month or so.
removable easy clean insert
Success! Give out lots of praise, make a reward chart with stickers or give a little treat when you’ve had a week of successful potty training.
2. Snoozie safari potty chair X3906
Beyond the potty Once the potty has been mastered, it’s a good time to move on to using the toilet.

breastfeeding Breastfeeding has many benefits for you and your little one, and it’s also great for protecting them against infections and diseases. Many new mums find that breastfeeding can take a while to master. Your midwife, health visitor and friends who have breastfed can all be a great support in the early days and breastfeeding helplines can help if you are having problems. For help getting started with breastfeeding or for tips and advice see our advice cards in store.
Before your baby is born 3-6 months pregnant Read up on breastfeeding and familiarise yourself with ‘how to breastfeed’ guides. Pick up our advice cards in store for lots of helpful tips. 36-38 weeks Now is a good time to get measured for a nursing bra. At Mothercare our trained bra fitters will be able to offer advice on the best bra to suit you and estimate your cup size in preparation for when your milk comes in.
250
After your baby is born Straight after birth Your breasts produce a creamy substance called colostrum which provides your baby with early nourishment and antibodies until your milk comes in. Colostrum is very concentrated so your newborn will only need small amounts at first. Feeding your baby within the first hour after birth If you feel up to it this can help with the bonding process. Remember, your baby’s mouth should completely cover the areola below the nipple and your nipple should be far back in your baby’s mouth. 2-4 days after birth Your breasts will start feeling full and this is a sign that your milk has come in. Midwives usually recommend that you feed your baby on demand (whenever they are hungry) at first until breastfeeding is established and you feel comfortable.

bottle feeding If you’re planning to bottle feed your little one, it helps to read up on bottle feeding basics including cleaning, sterilising and making up feeds.
What to consider Do... Do buy new bottles for each baby. Do wash all your feeding equipment with hot soapy water using a teat and bottle brush before sterilising. Do read the instructions from your steriliser unit before use. Do check the temperature of your baby’s milk before each feed. Do throw away any unused milk after your baby has finished feeding and always make up a new batch for the next feed. Do follow the formula milk manufacturer’s instructions very carefully when making up a feed.
Don’t... Don’t put boiling water straight into the bottle; instead allow to cool for no longer than 30 minutes. Don’t try to force your baby to finish each feed, baby’s appetites vary and sometimes they’re just not hungry. Don’t mix breastmilk and formula milk in the same bottle – breastmilk can be kept (and frozen) but formula milk needs to be discarded after each feed. Don’t heat your baby’s milk in the microwave, hot spots can scald.

Bottle feeding When bottle feeding, it’s important to keep the teat full of milk to help reduce wind. Our Innosense® bottle has an off-centre teat making it easy to keep the teat full of milk whilst hardly tilting the bottle at all. This results in a natural and relaxed feeding angle – with parents confirming that their babies fed more comfortably*** CAN HELP REDUCE WIND, confirmed by parents*

weaning The latest advice is to start weaning around 6 months, but all babies are different so talk to your health visitor about when is a good time to start weaning your baby. For handy tips and advice on the stages of weaning your little one, watch our Paediatric Dietician Judy More’s videos online.
Your baby's nutritional needs will change as he grows, so you'll find when he gets to somewhere between five and six months old he'll seem hungrier for something other than milk. Great first weaning foods
Second stage weaning
Your baby needs to learn to take food from a spoon rather than the breast or bottle. Start once a day with one to a few teaspoons. Try some of the following foods mixed and pureed with a little of your baby’s normal milk:
Fom around 7-9 months. Increase the number of meals to two then three a day as your baby gets used to food from a spoon and you start to introduce finger foods.
· Baby rice · Carrots · Banana · Sweet potato · Butternut squash
· Plastic spoons and forks · Non-spill cups with lids · Bibs and lots of gentle face wipes · Travel cutlery · Container to keep snacks in · Messy mat

Things you may need… Recommended: Face cloths Soft weaning spoons

Did you know?
As opposed to preconceived ideas, it is not the outside of baby bottles touched by hands that is the most important to sterilise but it is the base of the bottle, where the deposits of milk can build up and bacteria will develop.

playtime Play evolves as your little one grows; they’ll start by exploring toys through taste and touch and graduate to squealing with delight at peek-a-boo, banging pots and knocking down towers.
At first newborn babies can only see objects which are about 8-10 inches away. Play gyms and cot mobiles are great but babies also love faces. Try changing your facial expressions to see if your baby reacts.

a d v ic e stroller how tosafety breastfeed
sing a stroller can make getting around so much easier for U many parents, grandparents and carers. But to make sure the product is used safely – it’s best to follow the latest safety advice to keep your baby or child content, safe and secure on every journey you make, no matter how short.
key safety points
• always read the user guide provided by the manufacturer for your stroller or pushchair. • fold and open your stroller with care. Children are naturally inquisitive so always keep their fingers well away from any moving parts as you do this. • make sure the stroller is fully open and securely locked in place before you place your baby or child inside. • the harness should be used on every journey but again keep your child’s fingers away when inserting the fastening into the buckle. • make sure the brakes are in place whenever you stop or park your stroller. Never leave your child unattended even with the harness fastened and brakes in place. • remember your stroller is for one baby or child (unless it’s a double) and cannot take the weight of another child. • do not allow your child to climb into the stroller or for an older child to play with it. • and always follow the weight and age restrictions given by manufacturers.
easy travel
stroller comfort
always use the harness
general safety points
• when your stroller is not in use store away and use the clasp to keep it folded. • do not carry heavy loads in stroller baskets – they’re only suitable for small amounts. Take care when going up and down kerbs or steps. Never push your stroller onto an escalator with your child in it. • the same applies to shopping bags – although, it’s tempting to hang bags on the handles, shopping can easily cause your stroller to tip over and cause damage to the frame. • always show grandparents or child minders how to use your stroller or pushchair. • remember to remove weathershields or warm covers when going indoors – to prevent your baby from getting too warm. • regularly check over your stroller for any signs of damage and ensure all moving parts are cleaned and regularly lubricated.

in car safety advice on keeping your baby safe on the move
Most parents understand how important car safety is, but many people have trouble fitting and using car seats. Recent surveys have revealed that more than half of baby and child car seats are fitted incorrectly. That’s why it’s so important to read the instructions that come with your car seat. This advisory card is full of useful information on how to make sure your baby or child travels safely at all times, no matter how short the journey.
buying the right seat Talk to our expert advisers instore. For a new baby you will need an infant carrier (or combination seat). Our store advisers can check that the seat you wish to buy is suitable for your car, and they can help you fit the seat.

important car seat advice for parents • newborn babies need a rearward facing car seat from their very first journey. • rearward facing car seats offer the best protection for young babies, who have very little control over their head and neck muscles. Your baby should be positioned rearward facing for as long as possible. • car seats are tested by the weight they can carry, not the age of your baby or child. • mothercare recommend that children travel in the rear of the vehicle. However, if it is necessary for them to sit in the front seat when in a rearward facing seat the airbag must be de-activated. If the child is in a forward facing seat the vehicle seat should be slid back all the way and you should refer to the vehicle hand book; this will advise whether the air bag should be de-activated or not. In all cases, refer to the car seat manufacturers’ instructions to check suitability for your child’s seat in a particular seating position or vehicle. • since 2006 all new ECE-approved cars come equipped with Isofix anchorage points built in. Isofix-compatible car seats can easily and simply be plugged in, with much less opportunity for incorrect fitting. Check your car manual to see if your car is isofix compatible. • never buy a secondhand seat – it may have accident damage that you can’t see, making it a danger for your baby to use. • the law requires all children travelling in cars to use the correct child restraint from birth until
fitting your baby’s seat • practise fitting the seat before your baby arrives – read through the instructions and keep them in your car until you’re absolutely sure you know how it works. • make sure the harness around your baby or child is firm but not restrictive. • the seat belt should be as tight as possible, to minimise forward or sideways movement of the seat. • make sure the seat belt passes correctly through all the correct guides on the child seat – some seats have an alternative routing if the seat belt is too short to use the normal route. • the seat belt buckle should be straight when locked and should never rest on the child’s car seat frame as it may snap open. • for forward facing seats, push your weight into the child seat as you tighten the seat belt to make sure the child seat is securely held. As usual, there should be no slack in the seat belt. for further information please approach our retail staff for assistance or contact customer care department at 6692 9680 or email customercare@mothercare.com.sg

baby howslings to breastfeed constant visual contact
A baby sling provides a convenient way of transporting a baby. But, to make sure the product is used safely, it is best to follow the advice below when using a sling indoors or out and about. Our advice for using slings, in particular for a baby under four months, is:
• mothercare slings are designed to be used for full
term healthy babies. For babies under the care of a paediatrician, seek advice before using.
• babies should be carried in slings in the same position they would be in if you cradled them in your arms;
waist height
• baby should be carried at carer’s chest height and no
lower than the waist. Adjust the sling to fit the size of the carer and ensure sling fits securely for the carer and the baby.
• baby’s face should be visible at all times and not covered by body or by fabric. Ensure baby’s face is pointing outwards with plenty of ventilation. This also means baby should be carried on the carer’s front, not back.
• regularly check that the baby remains in the correct position. • be particularly vigilant when using a sling with a young baby, or a baby with a heavy cold.
• always read and follow the instructions and product
labelling for the sling. These are designed to inform you how to use the product safely. Remember that all slings are designed to have slightly different features. please also remember:-
• when you first use a baby sling please ask someone to help you so that you can practice putting the sling on and off etc. Check the sling on a regular basis to ensure no parts are worn or broken. • take care not to let baby get too hot or cold when using a sling. Remember your body also creates warmth for baby. Layered clothing for baby is ideal, so layers can be removed or added depending on the environment and when moving indoors to outdoors. Be aware that the thickness of the sling fabric can also affect baby’s temperature. • always keep one hand free when using a baby sling to protect you and baby should you suddenly need support. • take care of your back. As baby grows consider their weight. If baby gets too heavy, swap to another transport option. for further information please approach our retail staff for assistance or contact customer care department at 6692 9680 or email customercare@mothercare.com.sg

swaddling your baby
swaddling all you need to know
Swaddling is the practice of wrapping babies in swaddling cloths, large muslins, lightweight blankets or cotton sheets. Swaddling keeps a baby’s arms close to their body and legs snuggled together, which may help your baby to sleep soundly and securely by recreating the comfort and snugness of the womb.
tips and advice...
a helping hand for the first steps of parenting 334
• choose lightweight fabrics for good air circulation, ideally soft and stretchy to wrap around baby’s body. • regularly check your baby is in the correct sleeping position, on their back. • swaddling can help relieve symptoms of colic by providing gentle, even pressure around the abdomen. • swaddling may also help with positioning your baby for breastfeeding by tucking away wriggling little hands and arms. • please remember swaddling is only intended for use with young babies. • do not allow your baby to get too warm – regularly check your baby’s temperature. • babies should not be swaddled at every sleep or nap time.

to make sure swaddling is practiced safely, it is best to follow the advice and diagrams within this leaflet and follow any swaddling instructions you may receive. how to swaddle 1. place baby as shown with their shoulders lined up with straight edge of the blanket. 2. firmly pull one side of the swaddling blanket around the baby and tuck it under baby’s arm and body 3. firmly pull the last side of the blanket around baby and tuck underneath. please remember... • swaddling is only recommended for the first 3-4 months. • your baby will need to wear just a bodysuit (and sometimes a sleepsuit) underneath the swaddling sheet or blanket. But this will depend on the time of year (and the room temperature). • you should stop swaddling before your baby starts learning to roll over. • make sure the sheet or blanket is no higher than your baby’s shoulders. • your baby’s head should never be covered with the swaddling blanket, and needs to be clearly visible. • heavy blankets should not be used for swaddling due to the risk of overheating • we recommend using a room thermometer, the ideal room temperature for babies is between 16-20ºc. • you should look and feel your baby regularly when swaddled to make sure they are comfortable and not too warm or too cold. • always place your baby to sleep on his or her back. • ensure your baby is not swaddled too tightly to restrict breathing, or too loosely so that your baby can move and become entangled in the cloth. • it is important a baby can move with no restrictions throughout the day. They need to develop their muscles, which will help them, to crawl and sit in the future This is why babies should not be swaddled at every sleep or nap time. for further information please approach our retail staff for assistance or contact customer care department at 6692 9680 or email customercare@mothercare.com.sg

preventing accidents how to breastfeed ways to prevent accidents… • supervision – this is so important, especially in new surroundings e.g. on holiday or visiting relatives. • take care at busy times of the day – you may be distracted e.g. at meal times, bedtime or getting ready to go out. • fit home safety products – e.g. Install safety gates at the top and bottom of stairs to prevent a fall. • learn basic first aid – so you know what to do if your child has an accident. • be fire aware – always fit a smoke detector and use a fire guard (plus know how to escape in the event of a fire). • watch for older children playing near babies or toddlers. • a safety harness for the highchair or when out and about with an energetic toddler (with the additional reins) can help keep your little one safe. • remember to always supervise your baby at meal times. Babies can even try and tip their highchair by pushing on kitchen units or walls close by. • a monitor offers parents peace of mind. As soon as baby wakes, you’ll know about it. Please remember though monitors are an aid, they aren’t intended to replace adult supervision. • hot drinks can scald a baby even after 15 minutes, so keep them well away from babies and out of young children’s reach. common dangers… and how to avoid them • falling and tripping – remove toys, fit a baby safety gate, and always supervise on stairs. • burning and scalding – always test bath water, and never let children play close to the cooker / oven area. • drowning – never leave a baby or young children alone in the bath and always use a non-slip mat. • suffocation/strangulation – keep cats away from bedrooms, remove blind/curtain cords well away from your child’s reach. • choking – babies love putting things in their mouth, so remove older children’s small toys from the floor, and keep household liquids and medicines safely out of the way. Keep deflated balloons well away from babies and young children – they pose a real danger if swallowed.

adv ice tips to ensure your baby sleeps safely
helping your baby sleep safely
Having a new baby can be one of the most joyful times of your life. But, it can also be one of the most worrying as many parents are anxious about cot death. Fortunately, cot death is very rare these days. What’s more, you have the power to make it even rarer. By following the advice in this leaflet, you can significantly reduce the risks and help your baby sleep as safely as possible.
what babies need for safe sleep • place your baby on their back to sleep, and not on their front or side. • the safest place for your baby to sleep is in a crib or cot in a room with you for the first six months. • remember there are risks in sharing a bed with your baby. • cut smoking in pregnancy – fathers too! And don’t let anyone smoke in the same room as your baby. • settling your baby to sleep – day and night – with a dummy can reduce the risk of cot death. • breastfeeding your baby helps reduce the risk of cot death. • establish breastfeeding before starting to use a dummy.

a d v ic e how to breastfeed questions and answers about safe sleep
blanket guide
The advice in this leaflet is based on scientific research and has helped reduce cot death rates by 75%. what bedding should I use for my baby? If your baby is under one year, never use a duvet, quilt or pillow. Instead, use light clothing and a baby sleeping bag or light blankets firmly tucked in no higher than the shoulders. Place your baby with their feet to the foot of the cot, to prevent them wriggling down under the covers. how many blankets does my baby need? It depends on how warm the room is and how thick the blankets are, but to check if your baby is too hot, look for sweating or feel the back of your baby’s neck or their tummy. Don’t worry if their hands or feet are cool – this is normal. If your baby is too hot, remove one or more layers of blankets. Use this chart as a guide.

Room temperature °C
how warm should my baby’s room be? Babies don’t need hot rooms. In fact, the ideal room temperature is 16-20ºC. All-night heating is rarely needed and babies should never sleep next to a radiator or in direct sunlight. Remember to keep your baby’s head uncovered. can I use a baby sleeping bag for my baby? Yes, you can use a baby sleeping bag so long as it is the right size for your baby and also the right tog rating, so it’s not too hot or too cold for your baby to wear depending on the time of year. what kind of mattress should I use? It is very important that your baby’s mattress is kept clean and dry. Ideally, you should buy a new mattress for each new baby. Recent medical research suggests there may also be an increase risk of cot death if a baby is sleeping on a mattress previously used by a baby from another home. This seems to be largely down to the bacteria that can be found in used cot mattresses. The research is not saying there is a definite risk from used mattresses but the way of avoiding a potential risk is to use a new mattress for every new baby. can my baby share my bed? The safest place for your baby to sleep is in a cot or crib in your bedroom for the first six months. There is a proven risk in sharing a bed with your baby if you (or your partner) smoke even if you never smoke in bed or at home, have been drinking alcohol, taken drugs or medication that make you drowsy, or if you feel very tired. There is also a risk in bed-sharing if your baby was born prematurely, was small at birth or is less than three months old. for further information please approach our retail staff for assistance or contact customer care department at 6692 9680 or email customercare@mothercare.com.sg

The issue of using second hand car seats is frequently raised by parents and whether it can ever be safe to buy a second hand car seat. Road Safety Officers and Health Professionals understand that parents can be tempted to buy second hand but the risks and dangers are just too high for many reasons:
• you do not know the history of the car seat and whether it’s been in accident (even a minor accident can damage the internal structure of the seat and make it dangerous to use). • the car seat may not conform to the latest European Safety Standards • cleanliness and hygiene can be an issue (certainly for a newborn baby) • lack of instructions and how to fit the seat in your car correctly will not be an option if you buy second hand. • in the event of an accident a second hand car seat may not provide the right level of protection for your baby or child • in the event you do decide to buy second hand you need to completely trust and know the person who is selling the item to you. If you are in any doubt about the product (and for your own peace of mind) do not buy it –
it’s just not worth the risk.

how to breastfeed toilet training
trainer pants
when to start... • take the lead from your child – if he or she starts to show an interest and an awareness of what’s happening to his or her body try introducing a potty – this maybe when your child is around 2 years old. But remember every child is different and there is no need to rush. • by 3 years of age most children have fairly reliable bladder and bowel control, but some aren’t ready to start toilet training until they are 4; this is nothing to worry about. Most children follow this sequence: night time bowel control, daytime bowel control, daytime bladder control and finally, night time bladder control.
step stool and potty
handy tips • if you’re planning to start, always have a potty around so your little one can get used to sitting on it. • dress your child in easy to manage clothing – summer is a great time to start. • try to establish a daily routine. Sitting your child on his or her potty at certain times during the day may help e.g. after meal times. But always give your child plenty of encouragement and never force your child – always go at your child’s pace. • it is very important not to put your child under any pressure – knowing a nappy is going back on at bedtime can be very comforting for your child. • once your child uses the potty regularly during the day, you can then move onto the real toilet. • being able to control the bladder at night is the final stage for your child. Remember a child of 2 to 3 can’t hold urine for much longer than four to five hours. • bed-wetting is very common up to the age of 7 and boys are especially prone. It can be hereditary – check this out with your family. • if training twins try not to compare them. • let your child’s nursery, nanny or childminder know that you have started toilet training. for further information please approach our retail staff for assistance or contact customer care department at 6692 9680 or email customercare@mothercare.com.sg

Breast milk is the perfect food for your baby. It’s available on demand, at the right temperature, and has many health benefits for you and your baby. This advisory card is full of useful advice on how to breastfeed your baby.
a d v ic e
breastfeeding your baby
breastfeeding bras
be prepared • during pregnancy, attend a local breastfeeding information class. • eat a healthy diet, and eat frequently – you need more calories during breastfeeding than pregnancy. • ensure your bra fits correctly and buy the correct maternity bras. • ask your lactation consultant to help you position your baby correctly on the breast when you first start to feed. You should sit comfortably, with baby’s tummy facing your tummy. You may need to use a pillow to support you and your baby.
latching your baby on correctly • correct latching is vital – it lets your baby get the milk more easily and allows him to feed well. • he should have all of the nipple and most of the areola in his mouth so that his gums are well behind the base of your nipple • his nose and chin should be gently pressed against your breast, and his sucking shouldn’t hurt.
feeding - getting comfortable
tips for successful feeding • your baby should start with some fairly quick shallow sucks and then once your milk starts flowing his sucks should become slower, deeper and more rhythmic. • most mothers find that they need to use both breasts. Keep your baby on the first breast for as long as he is sucking properly. When his sucking slows or he starts falling asleep it may be time to take him off and wind him. If he seems fully fed you can put him down to sleep. If he’s still hungry, he can feed on the second breast until full. • how long your baby feeds can vary from as little as 10 minutes to as much as an hour or more - this will depend on how fast your milk flows and how strongly your baby sucks.
contented baby
look for the signs • your baby is feeding well and getting enough milk if: he settles well after feeds; he has at least 6 wet nappies a day; he gains the right amount of weight. • your baby is not feeding well if: he falls asleep at the breast but then wakes and cries when you try to settle him; his nappies are dry or his urine is concentrated and smelly; his weight gain is poor. If so, check your breastfeeding position with your lactation consultant or gynaecologist and ask for further advice. • never be afraid to seek help if you are struggling.

washing teats
keeping everything clean and sterile • whether you’re using expressed breast milk or formula, careful and thorough washing and sterilising is essential. • use a bottle and teat brush to help you clean all the equipment thoroughly before you put it in the sterilising unit. • always wash your hands before you take any items out of the steriliser. • when using sterilising units, read the instructions carefully and practise using the unit before you actually need to use it. making up feeds • always wash your hands before making up a feed. • carefully follow the formula milk manufacturer’s instructions. • powdered formula comes in a tin or box and is not sterile. To make up formula milk safely, feeds should be made up with water at 70°C (i.e. using the water within 30 mins of boiling) to kill any potential bacteria. • make up a feed when you need it. It is now not safe to make up a batch of bottles to store in the fridge. • always add the recently boiled water to the bottle first and then add the powdered milk to the water – the right number of scoops of formula powder will depend on your baby’s age and needs (see formula instructions). • place the cap on the bottle and then shake from side to side to mix the powder and water together. • cool the feed down by placing the bottle in a jug of cold water. Always shake the bottle and check the temperature (with a few drops on the back of your wrist) before feeding your baby. • if your baby is unwell or premature, follow all these instructions and maybe consider using ready-made formula milk for the first few months (as it’s already sterile). • throw away any unused milk – whether breast or formula, it’s not safe to reheat or use it later as it is the perfect breeding ground for bacteria. helpful tips • feeding your baby – whether by bottle or breast – is a perfect time to communicate with your baby by smiling, making eye contact, stroking your baby’s face and and giving your baby your full attention. • bottle and teat care – always replace any damaged, cracked bottles or teats straight away. • Health Visitors and Dietitians recommend that babies stop using a bottle and change to a beaker or cup before 12 months. • remember to keep everything clean and sterilised for the first year. • giving baby a feed is a great chance for Dad or grandparents to bond with your baby.

how to breastfeed weaning your baby what to give your baby • the amount your baby eats will vary. Always let your baby decide how much to eat. • she may begin with about two teaspoons once a day but as their feeding skills develop babies begin to eat more food and need to drink less milk. By a year, they should be eating minced and chopped family foods and you can cut out all bottles of milk. • offer finger foods right from the beginning of weaning so that your baby can play with food and start to learn how to self feed. Start with soft finger foods like sticks of cooked vegetables, cooked pasta pieces, toast fingers or pieces of soft ripe fruit. When they begin eating minced and chopped food from about 9-12 months you can give harder finger foods e.g. raw vegetable sticks and apple slices. • up to 6 months, most babies won’t need vitamin supplements. After this, breastfed babies should have baby vitamin drops containing vitamins A and D. Non-breastfed babies who drink less than a pint of formula a day should also be given drops. • give a mixture of foods so your baby gets all the nutrients they need. Include: – meat, fish, eggs and pulses – starchy foods like potato, rice, pasta and breakfast cereals – fruit and vegetables – cheese and yogurt • used in moderation, jars aren’t a bad thing – they’re convenient, and made without additives and salt. But jar food tends to be smoother and some babies find it hard to move onto lumpier food. And it’s better for your baby to learn to like your family foods that are made with fresh meat, fish, eggs, vegetables and fruit. • if your baby has a vegetarian diet, include starchy beans, peas, lentils, dahl, tofu and eggs for protein and iron. overcoming common problems • if your baby doesn’t want to eat lumpy food, try increasing the lumpiness very gradually, moving from puréeing to thicker and thicker mash and then onto mash with soft lumps. Offering finger foods can help a lump-phobic baby to try new textures. • if your baby doesn’t seem to like vegetables, s/he just needs longer to learn to like that taste. Just keep offering them. Naturally sweet vegetables (e.g. sweet potatoes, yams, carrots and parsnips) are often more popular choices. • babies learn by copying so eat the foods you want your baby to learn to like. After about 12 months it takes much longer to learn to like new tastes.– sometimes you have to offer a new food about 15 times before your child will try it. Always offer new foods with a positive expression/or in a positive way- it really helps. But don’t get into a battle about it – mealtimes should ideally be fun for you and your baby • if your older baby doesn’t want to eat much, it may be that s/he is drinking too much milk or diluted juice. This can lead to iron deficiency, so try to moderate how much of these your child drinks

how to breastfeed travelling with young children and sun safety
keep heads covered
• try to do a little research before you go, as every cot, pram and steriliser provided at your destination means one less thing for you to take with you. If there are laundry facilities you can take fewer clothes and if the hire car company provides car seats it means you won’t have to. making things easier • i f you’re travelling by car take nursery rhyme and story CD’s, a selection of distracting toys, and a supply of snacks to avert boredom. Plan frequent stops. An adult in the back often helps. • be prepared for travel sickness, take suitable bags in the car or on the plane plus lots of wipes. Consider travel sickness tablets for older children or anti sickness pressure point wrist bands. • if you’re flying try to book aisle seats close to the loo, and pack small toys (bring them out one at a time) and snacks (to avoid ears popping). Take plenty of drinks, a change of clothes for baby (perhaps even a clean top for you). • check whether you can buy nappies, wipes, formula milk and baby food at the resort - saves you having to take lots of supplies. • if you’re going overseas, make sure your baby has a passport.
swim safety
a playshade can help
sun-safety • i f you’re pregnant your skin may be more sensitive to the sun, so up the SPF, drink plenty of water and stay in the shade whenever possible. • small babies should be kept out of the sun altogether so take a pram parasol, or sun shade to provide cover. A pop-up beach play shade is useful for day time naps on the beach and for breastfeeding out of the sun. • buy a high SPF for children and try to give them a good coating before they get dressed each morning (even if it looks cloudy - they can still burn). You can always top up on the beach and after swimming, UV sunsuits give great peace of mind and protection. • show a good example by wearing a sun hat and insisting children wear hats too.

baby walker safety
baby walker safety helpful advice
a helping hand for the first steps of parenting 356
During the transition from crawling to walking, babies enjoy anything which they can use to pull themselves up into a standing position. Baby walkers help to serve this purpose well, if used with care and under adult supervision.
a d v ic e
baby walker safety Baby walkers are designed so that babies can sit in the walker and then move it around by pushing it along with their feet. Although, they’re called baby walkers, they are not really designed to help babies learn to walk, but more to give them a degree of mobility, to have a fun playtime session with the parents (or carer) and for your baby; the fun of being able to see the world from a different more up right position. The following advice is essential to consider before your baby uses a walker. • carefully follow the instructions • always check the walker is correctly assembled, thoroughly read over the user guide or instruction leaflet that comes with your baby walker. Keep it in a safe place, should you need to refer to it again at any time. • never leave your baby unattended – the parent or carer needs to share and be part of this play time activity. • only use on flat surfaces. Check surfaces are flat and free of objects that may cause tipping over. • guard all fires, heaters and cooking appliances, remove hot liquids, electrical flexes and other potential hazards from your baby’s reach. • prevent collisions with glass in doors, windows, furniture, and any access to stairs or steps. • be aware of your baby’s development • baby walkers are intended to be used by babies who can sit unaided (from approx six months) and then only for short periods e.g. 20 minutes to a maximum of 30 minutes. • make sure both your baby’s feet touch the floor – the seat height should be adjustable for this purpose. • remember your baby will move much more quickly, particularly in a reverse direction, than when crawling. • walkers are not suitable for already accomplished walkers. • general safety... • always lock all castors when using in activity mode, unlock all castors in walker mode. • confine use of the baby walker to one room at a time, keeping doors shut. • never carry the walker with your baby in it. A ll our walkers conform to (BS) British Standard EN 1273:2005 – please only use baby walkers to this standard - baby walkers with older standards are less safe. Be aware if buying second hand. for further information

a d v ic e how to breastfeed playing with your baby newborn up to 6 months • at this age, babies are fascinated by faces – after just one day, a baby will prefer their mother’s face to that of a stranger. • tiny babies love to have ‘conversations’ – so copy his smiles, frowns and gestures and talk baby talk with him. • even though they can’t hold things yet, babies still enjoy watching you wiggle a teddy or a rattle for their entertainment, and also make sure your baby has lots of tummy time play. • look out for ‘cues’ that show that your baby is ready to play – e.g. face-to-face contact, reaching out hands, turning eyes or head towards you, smiling, babbling and cooing. • remember, babies of this age need lots of sleep and tire very easily. • from 4 months your baby will now be reaching out and grabbing things, and will be much more physical too, maybe starting to roll or sit. • to help your baby become more ‘body aware’, play physical games such as gentle swooshing them into the air, or blowing raspberries on their tummy. • reading to your baby is very important – he or she will love hearing your voice, and over time will pick up language skills quicker and develop a love of books. • at this stage babies can’t focus on two things at once – so give them a new toy and they will drop and forget the one they are playing with. • • •

6 to 12 months sorting and playing comes along tremendously as your baby has more control over their hand to eye coordination. allow plenty of time for tummy play, rolling and crawling. from baby books to shape sorters and stacking beakers – allow your baby to play with these toys one by one and find out how things work for themselves, with on hand help from you if needed. intricate rattles with more parts, loops and textures can be really interesting to your baby now. consider toys for the pushchair, highchair and in the car, to help avoid your baby getting bored. start bedtime stories from around 6 months (or before) – even if only short and sweet your baby will love the attention. baby swimming, tumble tots or baby yoga might also be worth trying at this stage – ask your Health Visitor for details.
