Was browsing the BBC website and came across this article about William and Kate receiving a Finnish baby box.

This is what every expectant mum in Finland receives - its amazing!

Could you ever, ever see that happening here?

I saw this in the news a few weeks ago, isn't it fab? Look at those cloth nappies too

Would love to see this here, but sadly can never see it happening

It's ok though - we get a piddly small pot of sudocreme!

I loved this idea too...the box has an interesting history - it was introduced because infant mortality was very high, and it seems to have played a part in promoting much better outcomes for babies and families. I think it's just what we need here!

The box doubles as a crib. Amazing - and surprisingly space-saving too
