    Breakfast with Hipp Organic

    We were invited to try out some of the latest products from Hipp Organic over breakfast at Bills in Covent Garden. I’m lucky that my 7 month old loves her food and is happy to try anything – perfect as Hipp Organic have introduced ten new yummy recipes! We’ve already tried out the new savoury pouches but Little Sis got to try the new My First Yoghurt pots in banana and raspberry. These went down very well and I will be stocking up on them! They provide 23% RDA of calcium in 2 pots which give me peace of mind…

    Review: HiPP Organic savoury pouches

    Little Sis was sent some of the new savoury pouches* from HiPP Organic to try. At 7 months she has a very healthy appetite and seems to be enjoying everything she tastes. This brand new range of savoury pouches includes varieties specifically developed for babies from both four months and seven months. HiPP Organic has cleverly incorporated organic rapeseed oil, rich in Omega 3, into the new pouches, along with their finest organic vegetables and meats providing an easy and convenient source of nutrients essential for growth and development. We were sent four of the new pouches to try: ‘Carrots,…

    Bye bye baby

    I’m resigned to the fact that we’ve recently waved goodbye to those blissful baby months. You know, the ones where you can guarantee that if you leave your baby on his playmat in the middle of the floor he’ll still be there while you answer the door. Ever since Edward turned 9 months (a mere week or two ago!) he seems to have turned into a whirlwind of energy. We’ve been back home for a couple of days and he obviously feels the need to explore every corner. So far he’s pretty much ignored his lovely Christmas toys in favour…

    My lucky streak

    It’s been a while since I have posted about my recent competition winnings. I’m finding less time so enter competitions as Edward is down to two naps during the day and they are getting shorter (already! he is only 8 months!). However I have had some great wins over the last few months. First of all I was lucky enough to win a Belling Butler in a Twitter competition. I’m not quite sure where we’re going to put it in our little terraced house but it will be great for dinner parties! Secondly I’ve been lucky enough to win a…

    When only organic will do

    HiPP Organic recently carried out a nationwide survey to gain the views of the modern day mum. I could relate to some of their findings: 25% of pregnant women claimed to have had no cravings during pregnancy the 2nd trimester is the favourite stage of pregnancy for 63% of HiPP Mums 67% of HiPP mums felt that weaning their baby was fun, exciting or delightful I’ve tried and failed to make food that Edward will eat. I was really excited at the thought of weaning but underestimated how difficult it would be to get Edward to eat the food I…
