I used baby bath and shampoo BEFORE 6 weeks! Oh the horror! (although, admittedly, she only got a bath a week if she was lucky)I used Huggies wipes instead of cotton wool in the hospital, I win
HA beat you both! Not only did I do both of those (well sorry but there was no way I could actually walk to the sink to get water, get it back to my bed and then wash her down and carry it all to the bin! I mean physically... it would have been impossible!) but I have also given her.... jars of baby food! :eek: (granted not often but even just the one should be cause enough for me to be sent away for 10+ years right???)DFW Nerd #025DFW no more!

I used Huggies wipes in hospital. I didn't have any cotton wool, they told me off for not using cotton wool, and when I asked they begrudingly gave me one cotton wool ball and told me to use it sparingly. As I don't have the ability to magic cotton wool out of thin air, I just used the wipes and fell out with the midwives.
I was also holding Charlotte wrong to breastfeed as guidelines changed between having the boys and her. By the time you get to the third, it's really hard to relearn something that comes naturally, so she was breastfed "wrong" all the time. I still don't understand that one
Charlotte had my food from early weaning, including chewing on a bit of garlic naan and dipping her fingers in a jalfrezi take away curry when we had people round for a meal when she was about 8 months old. Their eyes nearly popped out of their heads, especially as one lady had already rejected the jalfrezi as it was too hot for her :rotfl:Here I go again on my own....0 -

... but... *ahem*:o have a cupboard full of hipp organic and heinz mums own. And she says they are 'mmmm yummmm mmmmm yummmm':rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:
Cos seriously, see if I stuck to all my stuck up ideas of whats best for baby, the two older ones would be starving to death... or probably still at school and nursery or wandering the streets. The dishes would be piled higher than they already are and as for washing... pah, the pile thats there would be like a mole hill compared to the mountain. I won't even describe what the loo would be like...
Or maybe Id just be in the loony bin?0
