Mama Feels Good

So did you see The Apprentice last night? I gotta say i watch every series and i’m sure they get dafter ever year! Although they are well entertaining, personally i think Melissa’s time was up and it was a bit of a no brainer for Lord Sugar, but she defo gave us some entertaining times when she was there, especially with all thosae crazy words she used!

So the programme showcased a new baby grow that changed colour when your babies temperature rose beyond a certain point, i’ve done a bit of searching and the product is called bay grow and is available for purchase here,

o here is their blurb from their website:

WHY BABYGLOW? TEMPERATURES AND BABIES

The human average body temperature varies from 36.5 to 37.5. It is regulated by a well balanced and intelligent system that our bodies operate continuously.

Babies however cannot regulate their body temperature independently until after they are about 24 months old.

This causes them to frequently develop a fever, which means that their body temperature rises. These fevers are often due to viral infections that will come and go again, but occasionally a fever can be a sign of a more serious illness.

Why and how does the body develop a fever?

When the body detects infection or something it cannot identify, such as a virus, it produces a reaction affecting the heat-regulating centre of the brain called the hypothalamus. Several reactions in the body then purposely increase the body temperature to higher levels in an attempt to kill the infection. This is why in the case of illness the body raises its temperature. As fever can also become dangerous itself, the general consensus in the medical world is to attempt to lower the temperature back to normal levels.

BABYGLOW products are designed to start changing colour when the temperature of the body rises over 37°C and they are fully functional (white in area’s that touch the baby) when the temperature reaches 38.5°C, which is where fever can become dangerous to the child.

This unique functionality will help parents to see signs of fever or overheating immediately, even before the child becomes noticeably ill.

For further details about babies and temperature we recommend reading the relevant sections on www.nhsdirect.nhs.uk for authoritative informa

It’s all quite exciting, end part of last week we had a fabulous email from a London Stylist who would like her client to have some of our maternity tees for a photoshoot she’s doing later in the week. Yeah a celebrity client woo hoo. Can’t say too much because as fabulous as our maternity T-shirts are they might not get chosen for the magazine picture.

I’ve got to admit it’s all a bit new to me so after i got the email i couldn’t sleep i was mega excited then sunday night i watched The City on MTV and saw Olivia was getting clothes together for a photoshoot for Kesha ( you know the singer who sang the song Tick Tok)

Careful this song is very catchy warning warning you’ll be singing it all day!

Anyways Olivia from The City had approached all the designers and companies for freebies for the Elle photoshoot and the celeb came in and picked 3 things from like a whole table of stuff. So this kinda kept it real for me. I would be SO chuffed if they are used so i guess i will have to wait and see. But it did help that a friend of mine is a stylist for 2 well known celebs and he have me lots of advice so that was real cool. So next time when Angelina comes a knocking i’ll know what to do !!

We’ll let you know how things pan out.

Wow

Congratulations to Sara Cox and her husband on the arrival of her  third (their 2nd) baby ,

Sara announced it on twitter , we wish her and her new baby girl all the best.

I must say i don;t read too many blogs, some stores which i really like do cool blogs but you really gotta be feeling the person writing the blog to read it on a regular basis i think.

I Still Hate Pickles     is a blog about a ladies trip through pregnancy and the emotions and sorta everyday life being faced by women with a child and going through another pregnancy. I just like the frankness of it and it;s refreshing to read, it doesn’t sugar coat things or makes things  worse than what they really are / were.

I thought the recent post about remembering the previous labour of her first child was really cool, very similar (in the description of the pain etc) to my own labour, although i was induced and ended up with an emergency c-section. Here’s the article

What were you experience like during labour? And if you are having a 2nd , 3rd , 4th pregnancy do the other previous labours put you off?

No not really but we wnated to get your attention!! ha ha.

If she ever did she could come to our store, we love Mary portas, she could help us out any time.

Did any of you guys see tonights episode, it’s the 2nd one in her new BBC2′s season of charity shop ones? Personally i thought the store looked great after the re-fit but i can totally appreciate how the older ladies there didn’t like it. If they as the workers there just aren’t that into it then i dont know how well the shop will function, as Mary Portas has obviously got alot of passion for the store, which perhaps isn’t focussed in the same direction as others.

Did you see the show? Let me know what you thought.

As quoted from Celebrity baby blog :

Never say never! Gwyneth Paltrow, who last year revealed she had “no plans” to add a third child to her family with husband Chris Martin, appears to have had a change of heart! In an interview with the UK’s New magazine, the 36-year-old actress said that watching son Moses, 3, grow older has filled her with nostalgia. “At first I thought, ‘Okay, that’s it, I’m done, no way will I have anymore,’” Gwyneth recalls. “Then my son turned two and you think ‘Oh no, I don’t want this to be the last two-year-old I have. Maybe I’ll do one more.’”

Regardless of whether she does go on to welcome another child, Gwyneth has already been profoundly changed by Moses and his 4 ½-year-old big sister Apple Blythe Alison. She explains,

“Motherhood enriches your life in the most incredible way. My children have given me a real life. I never feel I don’t know what my purpose in life is anymore

The Grey’s anatomy actress is pregnant (we’re not talking Meredith her chraracter on screen, we are talking the actress here) with her first child.

Eleen and her husband Chris Ivery, who is a music producer have been married for 4 years and they met in an aisle of a supermarket, so wonder if this will reflect in the name they plan for their child ? Ha ha .

So we will have to wait and see if  meredith on Greys anatomy will become pregnant…ohh a Mcdreamy baby.

To be honest i don’t really understand what the fasination is with Lindsey Lohan wasn’t she the girl from the Herbie movie? Apparently Hollywood are rejocing  in someone else’s miss fortune and miss Lohans latest film Labour Pains is going straight to cable Tv and not being shown in the cinemas.

The comedy, which sees Lohan, 22, playing a secretary who fakes a pregnancy to avoid getting fired, did not get the go ahead for a Cinema release. It will now premiere on American channel ABC Family. The film is about Miss Lohans character having to fake her own pregnancy in order to refuse being fired, normally it’s the other way around!!

Lindsay does a Good  job in it but the problem is no one seems to want to see her in anything any more,” the Daily Express quoted an insider as saying. With the personal problems she has been going through, her career has been going downhill, and she blames the press for the misfortune

Well it will be available on DVD at some time so maybe here in the UK we might have a chance to catch it at some time.

Well not him physically but his wife! Ha Ha

Bones star, David Boreanaz let it slip out on the Live With Regis and Kelly (american tv) show that his wife is pregnant with their second child. He was trying to explain that he was talking to his son Jaden Rayne about the “birds and the bees” and asked his 6-year old son, “You’re aware that mommy and daddy are having a new baby?” That is when Kelly interjected, a little surprised and asked the actor if his wife was pregnant again. David replied in a joking manner, ““I said that? Oh I did! Yes, I’m having a new baby.”

Wow i always thought David was adish, lucky wife
