Did you know that skin-to-skin can help to regulate baby's temperature?
When holding their baby close, mum's breasts can detect changes in their temperature, then adjust their milk when needed.
Aren't our bodies amazing!?

ALT Did you know? your breastmilk helps regulate baby's temperature. Your breasts can detect a change as little as 1 degrees C in your baby's temperature, and will adjust accordingly to heat up or cool down your baby.

Using second-hand baby products is a great way to save money and it’s better for the environment too! However, remember to check the 4 things listed on this image before buying or using a second-hand item.
ALT Before buying or using second-hand, check the instructions (often downloadable from manufacturer’s website), it complies with British safety standards (should be stated on the product, packaging or website), it hasn't been recalled or deemed unsafe (check the product recalls section of gov.uk), and that it's all in one piece with no broken or missing parts.
