I have been a fan of Lollipop Lane for as long as I have had children, and have watched their ranges change and develop over the years. We have tried their cot bedding sets, and will now use nothing else as they are soft, pretty and wash so well. I was recently sent a Herb’s Garden changing mat and a Blue Whale cuddle robe to review. Changing mat. The Herb’s Garden changing mat is much much better then the standard changing mat you can buy – this one has something special. It comes with a towelling liner and a pillow for the ultimate in comfort during changing time. The liner prevents your baby from having to lie on a cold and plasticky mat, and the pillow offers them somewhere to rest their little heads.
Max is so super comfy on this mat, and is much happier to lie here for nappy and clothes changes than he was on his previous mat. And I just love it because it looks gorgeous, and is the same high quality I have come to expect from Lollipop Lane.
Cuddle robe. I love hooded towels for babies – I just think they keep them so warm and snug after a bath. The Blue Whale cuddle robe does just that. The soft and gentle towelling material keeps Max cosy while wicking water away from his skin too. It dries him beautifully without becoming sopping wet. Just the job for bathtime cuddles.

I don’t have any children but would love to win this for charity, to go to Romania
Distract them so they don’t fuss whilst you are changing them
Make sure you have everything to hand. Also talking or singing as you do it for comfort and fun lol x
Always have a set of everything you need both upstairs and downstairs you don’t want to be running up and down the stairs looking for wet wipes!
If changing a boy make sure you pop the nappy back on for a few seconds when you’ve opened the tapes if not you will get very wet.I very quickly learned my lesson.
have everything ready before you start
Be prepared for anything
Make sure you have everything you need to hand before you start.
Don’t let go of your child to grab items that you need. A baby could roll off if lying on a bed, changing table or sofa. You could prevent many accidents by making sure you have everything you need before starting to change the nappy.
use it as an opportunity to bond – sing songs, rhymes etc.
Make sure everything is to hand before you start!
Have everything you need close by, and make it fun
Have everything ready and some toys at hand
make sure you have everything you need before you start!
sing rhymes to keep them occupied
Make sure you put a new nappy under the bum as soon as you remove the old one.
leave it undone so they can have a leg wiggle but remember,
just because they have just done a huge poo, doesn’t mean another one isn’t about to arrive!!
Sing a song whilst changing the little wriggler. Pop Goes the Weasel works well for us as the Pop is apparently very exciting!
Being organised is a must but really think about the height you are changing baby, could save a bad back.
my regret was not buying a change table, i change my daughter on the sofa, the floor the table and it wasnt easy.
