The Herringbone project may have "ended last summer", but the features about it were new, weren't they? Wasn't it just in the last week or so that they posted up the instagram post etc?
Oh the “dressing room” (aka ugly kitchen) was up until 3ish days ago on IG and their website as a case study. So they can try to sugarcoat the SOD’s as past clients all they want, but nope. It’s only just been deleted.

Not a #AD but Little blue nest has the cutest designs for muslins, comforters and quilts. They also have a bundle package where you save 25% over buying individually.

There's also sling libraries- you might have one in your area, where you can try on a number of different slings and see which one works/ how to use it and are asked to make a small donation- the one near me had £2 listed.

boba 4g was my jam for baby wearing - awesome piece of kit (and cool enough for mr stapp to wear too). check if you have a local sling library - you can get help and support to find the right kind of sling for you and also often hire them to try before you commit as they can be $$.

Just click on his followers and it shows all of them. The most recent are the newest - that’s the most beautiful thing Instagram ever did!

@heretoreaditall2019 I loved the giant Aden & Anais bamboo muslin squares, they’re about 120cms and wash up so soft and light. There are so many baby things that are just a ridiculous rip off, but I genuinely feel like those are worth the money. Re slings, I would suggest borrowing or EBay if you can, or at least having a good long try with various types. I used completely different slings with all of my children, and they can work differently for what you want to use them for. I used one of those soft slouchy ones for around the house or maybe a trip to a cafe or restaurant (sob ), but for any proper walk I had some sort of ergonomic upright thing. I had so many different ones I can’t even remember what they were called. I remember when one of mine got bigger I got something that just sort of supports them on your hip. Like everything with babies, try and try, and do what feels comfortable.

Please can we keep to the thread topic! Understand people want to have discussions around other things, and you are are free to set up another thread in another section and share a link but let’s keep this one about the SODs! Sorry to moan but it’s really difficult to keep track if comments are spiralling onto other subjects.
 
Oops, sorry. Although I saw it as striking a blow against the influencer bullshit by offering normal advice.
Don’t worry, the conversation came about as we were talking about stuff Clemmie tried to sell to pregnant/new mums....and we gave real life advice on what really works!

(Ps @heretoreaditall2019 we found the Gro brand swaddles really good) my boy used to wave his hands round like crazy and wake himself up then get upset so swaddling helped us!)

Took it upon myself to message Herringbone Kitchens and have had a reply - they seem to want to disassociate themselves from the Hoopers completely which is AMAZING news!
I have to say I think this is a really unprofessional reply, she shouldn’t be talking about past employees whatever the reason and they haven’t deleted the kitchen it’s still on their website as I was looking for kitchens over the last few weeks.

i believe education over punishment is often better, or else nothing changes?
