DON'T KNOW WHAT FORMULA TO CHOOSE?

This guide should help you. As always, it's important for you to do your own research when making decisions. Remember, there's no right or wrong decision, so long as it's safe and in the best interests of your baby.

You can’t spoil a newborn by holding them.
In those early weeks, your baby is learning that the world is safe, that their needs will be met and that they’re loved.
Responding to their cries and offering comfort builds trust, connection, and security, the foundation for healthy development.

You’re not “making a rod for your own back” — you’re building a bond.

✨ October Babies ✨

There’s something so magical about little ones born in October 🍂👶 As the days grow shorter and the air turns crisp, these babies arrive in a season of cosiness and change.

🌟 Did you know?

October babies are born into the start of cold season, so it’s a great time to think about keeping their environment warm, using layers rather than heavy blankets, and paying attention to hand hygiene around visitors.

Natural light is lower at this time of year, so getting out for a short walk when the sun is up can help both you and baby regulate your circadian rhythms and boost mood.

Skin-to-skin is especially comforting in cooler weather, keeping your baby warm and connected while supporting bonding and feeding.

Their birthstones: opal and tourmaline are said to symbolise hope, love, and creativity. What a beautiful reflection of the journey you and your little one are beginning together. 💛

Do you have an October baby? I’d love to know when they arrived and what you remember most about those early autumn days 🍁✨

You can't pour from an empty cup.
