Happy New Year (+my first blog birthday giveaway!)

Posted by
Happy New Year everyone! You may have noticed that it's been a bit quiet around here for a few weeks. I was super busy in the run up to Christmas then I was struck down with the flu and only now am I starting to feel more human. I hope you all had a great Christmas. Ours was perfect and C and E are just at the best ages so they understood everything and were really excited.

January 2017 marks four years since I started this blog which I think is absolutely crazy. I never stick to anything so this is a massive acheivement for me. There are a few things that I want to do differently this year. Last year, I focused a lot on reviews and by the end of the year, I realised I hadn't done a monthly update on the children for a few months and was skipping my usual "Look in my Letterbox" posts. I definitely want to get back to basics and even start joining in with the Me & Mine and Siblings linkies again - I miss those!

To celebrate the fact that Mum of a Premature Baby is four years old, I have some giveaways with the first of which starting right now.


InfaCare Baby Bath and InfaCare Night Time Baby Bath are ultra-mild, pH balanced and generate masses of long lasting bubbles. A baby's skin is ten times more delicate than adult skin so InfaCare is formulated to be as natural and gentle as possible. Recommended by midwives and healthcare professionals, they have been clinically tested and developed to promote natural levels of acidity and alkalinity in skin and hair. Each are designed to prevent irritation and mums say that it helps with allergies.

The Night Time Baby Bath is becoming a fast favourite with mums across the country; with up to 70% describing it as "ideal" for their bedtime routine. You don't need to use much either as a little goes a long way. The gentle, powdery fragrance helps to relax, easing tots first into bed then off to sleep.

InfaCare Baby Bath retails at £2.15 per 400ml bottle and £3.19 for 750ml. The InfaCare Night Time Baby Bath is £3.49 for 750ml. Both can be purchased from all major supermarkets as well as Lloyd's Pharmacy and Boots.

Want to try some for yourself? I have two sets of 2 x InfaCare Baby Bath and 2 x InfaCare Night Time Baby Bath up for grabs. Just enter via the Rafflecopter widget below. Good luck!

T&C's:
  • Two winners will win two bottles of InfaCare Baby Bath and two bottles of InfaCare Night Time Baby Bath
  • The giveaway will run from January 1st until January 15th
  • Prizes will be sent via the PR company
  • Open to entrants aged 18+
  • UK residents only
  • One entry per person
  • No automated entries

    My little one is 5 now, but I still love using these products for both him & myself. I like that they are suitable for sensitive skin & not irritating which I find with most "older" aimed products. Plus the smell always reminds me of a sleeping baby which is always nice :)
