Clear the air in your little ones room with the Baby-Nose Clear Room Vapour.
Has your little one got a blocked nose which is causing restless nights? Whether it be down to the common cold or summer allergies, being nasally congested is uncomfortable and can be extremely stressful for young children with narrow nasal passages. As babies rely solely upon nasal breathing (except whilst crying when they breath through their mouths) it is important to try and ensure that your little one is able to breath comfortably in order to carry out feeding and for comfortable sleeping.
Having a little one who is unable to feed and sleep properly due to nasal congestion can throw routines out of sync and cause sleepless nights for the whole household. There are several things which parents can do in order to relieve nasal congestion throughout the night:
- Soak a muslin cloth/ towel/ washcloth in cool water and add several drops of Baby-Nose Clear Room Vapour to the damp material. Hang this over a radiator so that the water can evaporate throughout the night releasing moisture into the air and decongesting oils into the air.
- Fill a bowl with warm water, add drops of Baby-Nose Clear Room Vapour to the bowl filled with water. Allow this to evaporate into the air, humidifying the atmosphere throughout the night for easy breathing.
- Drop a few drops of Baby-Nose Clear Room Vapour onto the underside of your little ones mattress.
- Spend ‘over the odds’ on a humidifier, vaporiser or ‘eucalyptus plugin’ to aid breathing throughout the night (these techniques often tend to be a waste of money in the long run).
The Baby Nose-Clear Room Vapour won the prestigious Queens Award for Outstanding Innovation for its effectiveness. Designed to reduce congestion and to improve breathing, The Baby-Nose Clear Room Vapour is made with pure and natural essential oils. It is 100% pure and does not contain any toxic, synthetic fragrances or propellants unlike many other commercial decongestants available on the market. The Baby-Nose Clear Room Vapour uses a gentle blend of lemon, pine and tea tree essential oils in order to create a natural decongestant which has antiseptic, antibacterial and calming properties.
The Baby-Nose Clear Room Vapour can be used to clear little noses from birth onwards either within babies room (using the above listed techniques) or within the Baby’s Nose-Clear Inhaler Dummy (for three months and over).
Mums Baby Magazine put the Baby-Nose Clear Room Vapour into use during a hot, summers night in order to reduce congestion for a two year old hay fever sufferer.
Firstly, we suggest that only a few drops of the Baby-Nose Clear Room Vapour are required as the oil is extremely concentrated. Secondly, we would like to advise that you wash your hands thoroughly after setting up your humidifying arrangement with this oil, try to avoid contact with the skin when using this oil.
After a few hours of allowing the Baby-Nose Clear Room Vapour to air, we found that the room smelt extremely fresh and breathing was far easier for both children and parents alike. Although our toddler was still rather ‘blocked up’ throughout the night the decongesting oil in the air seemed to have some effect in aiding his breathing and therefore enabled a peaceful nights sleep for all!
Mums Baby Magazine give the Baby-Nose Clear Room Vapour 8/10. In order to reduce your little ones symptoms even more so, we would like to suggest that the Baby-Nose Clear Room Vapour be used in conjunction with the Baby-Nose Clear Aspirator and Baby-Nose Clear Massage Oil.
The Baby-Nose Clear Room Vapour is available for £7.14 from www.4little1.com

Get a good nights sleep with the Dream Genii Pregnancy Support & Feeding Pillow.
During pregnancy it can become difficult to get a good nights sleep. Most midwives and obstetricians suggest that expectant women should sleep on their left hand side in order to increase blood flow. It is unadvisable to sleep on your front (you wouldn’t want to squash your bump!) and sleeping on your back is said to decrease blood flow to your baby and can cause dizziness. Sleeping on your back often tends to be uncomfortable during the later stages of pregnancy due to the extra weight that you will be carrying.
The Dream Genii Pregnancy Support & Feeding Pillow is designed to enable Mums to be to get into a safe, comfortable and restful position in which they can achieve a good nights sleep. This pillow is designed to help keep you in a ‘left laying’ position 
(as advised). Sleeping with a bump can be awkward, many women experience cramp at times, this can be combatted by slightly parting the legs. The Dream Genii Pregnancy Support & Feeding Pillow includes a long pillow which can be positioned between the legs to prevent cramp.
The Dream Genii Pregnancy Support & Feeding Pillow features a flat pillow area in which you lay upon, each side of this flat pillow has raised sections in which to support either side of your body. Attached to the main pillow is a long ‘sausage like’ pillow which can be used to support and comfort the legs.
This pillow is literally a ‘dream pillow’ for those who suffer from SPD. SPD (sympysis pubis dysfunction) now referred to as Pelvic 
Girdle Pain, is a condition in which the pelvis softens (as it naturally should during pregnancy) and the joints in the pelvic area move causing irritation and discomfort.
Once you have finished using the pillow during pregnancy it is possible to continue using the Dream Genii Pregnancy Support & Feeding Pillow as a breast feeding support pillow. Simply position your baby in the main pillow section and then wrap the long section of the pillow around your back. This support enables you to feed your baby 
at the correct height in comfort decreasing back ache from leaning forward (a common problem during breast feeding).
Pillow cases can be purchased separately and are available in a range of designs. Available from www.dreamgenii.com for only £45.99, The Dream Genii Pregnancy Support & Feeding Pillow is the only pillow specifically designed to support your back, your bump and your knees simultaneously without taking up large amounts of bed space making this pillow a dream pregnancy product!
Keep your little one snuggled safely and securely with the Lindam Safe & Secure Bed Guard.
Moving your toddler up from a cot to a single bed is a big step in terms of development, for children this tends to be an exciting time as they are offered some elements of freedom in terms of being able to get in and out of their bed at their own will. However, for parents this can often be a time of worry and anxiety over their child’s security and safety during sleep.
Sleep is the time when our brains process the day’s activities and our bodies secure rest. Sleep is the time when growth takes place and interrupted sleep can cause numerous developmental problems thus ‘sleep’ is a crucial part of the human daily cycle.
Little ones generally tend to move around a great deal in their sleep and the safety of cot rails ensures that they stay secure in their cot/ cot bed during an essential and important time of their day. However, when your child becomes too big for a cot or is endangering themselves trying to climb out from cots/ 
cot beds then it is time to move them to a single bed, thus moving about can potentially lead to ‘falls’.
Suitable from eighteen months to five years of age, the Lindam Safe & Secure Bed Guard offers security from falling out of the bed, The bed guard is padded and is soft the touch offering comfort and support if laid against by little ones yet is strong and sturdy to prevent children from rolling off the mattress.
The Lindam Bed Guard is easy to put together and fits securely upon single beds (by laying the mattress neatly into the rails of the bed guard which is adjustable). Suitable for all single bed types (slatted divan and ensemble) with mattress widths from 76 to 100cm and lengths from 141cm to 210cm, The Lindam bed guard is adjustable to ensure a neat and secure fit. However, if you are using a cot bed in ‘bed mode’ then this bed guard is a little too chunky and wide to use, thus it may be worth investigating other bed guards which are suitable for your specific cot bed.
Once the bed guard has been fitted it can then be folded down by pressing two buttons featured either side of the rail, so that your child is able to get in and out of the bed easily whilst awake. The simple folding mechanism also makes changing the bed and lifting children from the bed far easier for parents.
Once asleep the bed guard can be raised and clicks into position with the safe and secure locking mechanism to offer your child a ‘safe sleeping environment’. If children do wish to get out of the bed during the night then they able to by shuffling further down or up their mattress to exit from the bed. The Lindam bed guard does not run the entire length of the bed as this would simply be a hazard as little ones may try to climb over the guard and suffer injuries from falling, as they could well do with cot rails.
The Lindam Bed Guard is available in three colours (blue, pink or neutral) and costs only £19.99 from www.safetots.co.uk, a small price to pay for peace of mind and safe, secure, sleep. For other stockist details log on to www.lindam.com
