Click here to find out more! Welcome to babyworld news February 2005
We have a few romantic overtones this week, as Valentine's Day approaches. Even if you're not a romantic at heart, it's important to remember that time as a twosome is an important part of family life, and can help you cope with the ups and downs of being a busy parent. babyworlders came over all romantic when they recalled the moment they heard those words " Will you marry me?"in our article Romantic Proposals. And if you're in baby-making mood then then these Foods of Love might help your evening to be successful. What better night to spoil each other with fertile foods, seductive sweets and passionate pastries!? Well, actually some of you would prefer sex toys it seems, according to our Sex survey. So, take a peek,if you dare, at Hot buys for naughty girls and guys!

Perhaps you've heard that 98% of our deliveries are made the next working day. So, whether you're pregnant, have a newborn, twins or a baby with special needs, the babyworld shop is the place to go. For February, our range of Wooden Toys has reductions of up to 25% and we've added Natal Hypnotherapy CDs to help relax you during pregnancy and calmly prepare for the birth. Oh, and does the prospect of a good night's sleep seem more romantic than a dozen roses to you? Well, from Feb 14 we're running 'The Big Sleep' promotion with a free Snoflake mattress with cribs, cots or cot beds, and discounts on selected sleep inducing bedding, massage oils, comforters and sleeping bags!


 

Foods of love
If you are planning a baby then a good diet is essential and with Valentine's Day surrounded on both sides with pagan fertility festivals, what better time to follow our four-course advice on the foods of love!

Message in a bottle
Pre-eclampsia can be a life-threatening condition for you and your baby. But one of the key symptoms can be easily detected with a urine test. Find out more about this peculiar illness of pregnancy.

Let's talk about sex
Mention sex and parenting in the same breath and it becomes something of a joke. Magazine articles promise that you can have the sex of your life after the birth of your children but, as we have seen in our survey, this is often, sadly, not the case. We wanted to find out what really happens behind the doors of babyworld members' bedrooms (without getting arrested) and hope you are as intrigued as we were with the findings.

Fluid in the first year
We all know we should drink at least eight glasses of water a day but what about our babies? For young children and babies drinking enough fluid is essential to health and well-being. But which milk and what kind of water is best? Read on to find out what your child should be drinking and when.

New look Discussion Forums
It's been all change on our discussion forums. You can now add pictures to your messages and we have added lots new forums. Come on in and enjoy discussing, debating and deliberating along with hundreds of other babyworld parents!

Nest egg for baby
Don't forget your baby is entitled to a £250 voucher to kick start his Child Trust Fund account! However, like many parents you are probably have more questions than answers, find out how to invest your child's money wisely.

Don't leave me this way
Most parents will be familiar with the distressing sight of their child crying when they leave them at nursery or with a carer but this doesn't usually mean there is anything to worry about. In fact, separation anxiety is a very normal part of your child's development.

New baby - new tax credits
Nine out of 10 families with children are entitled to tax credits! Whether you are already receiving tax credits or haven't yet claimed - why not make sure you are getting what you are entitled to? Once your new baby arrives let the Inland Revenue know that your circumstances have changed.
