I’m hoping to have a baby in the near future and I’m so confused by it all from what I see on social media and on facebook (especially those who are easily influenced).Sooo many influencer mums now are choosing aesthetics over basic safety now it's scary! When you have a baby these days one of the things that's drilled in to you by the midwives and HV's is safe sleeping. We even had one come in and check our sleeping arrangements. It's insane that so many mothers hear this advice but don't actually listen and go against it for the sake of looking pretty on Instagram! When I look at photos of me sleeping in my cot as a baby I'm amazed I even made it out alive! But then they didn't have the research we have now.
In my head I thought I knew the absolute basics that you first need, but seeing all this emphasis on fully kitted out nurseries costing thousands of pounds makes me doubt myself!
I can easily see why people get themselves in debt and I can see why there are so many mummy influencers as there is so much scope for unneeded swipe ups and money making. No doubt why hinch is keen to get away from cleaning and into lifestyle influencing!
