“After only a few months of dating my future wife at the tender age of 21 we entered the often dangerous conversation of ‘if we had children what would we call them?’. “The first name we both suggested for a boy was Ethan. Fifteen years later we had a baby boy; no other name was considered – we still loved the name Ethan.” - Richard

“Before becoming a parent, I had an idea of what kind of mother I wanted to be, with rules and behaviours. But, when the real thing happened, I discovered a new person in me. I was doing things in a completely different way than what I expected – the experience is so different from the expectation.” - Camila

"My husband and I met at uni, and one evening we got onto the topic: “if we had children what would their names be”….we agreed “Ethan” would be a great name. Roll forward 10 years and we’re expecting our 1st child. We remembered that conversation so Ethan was top of the Boy’s names….however, our first born was a girl we named Mya. Roll forward another 5 years and we’re expecting our 2nd child and Ethan was born! So from naming to birth took 16 years!" - Denise

“Newborn babies sleep a lot – but are constantly waking up. There’s a good chance that they’re hungry, but if not, check the nappy and see if they’re too hot or too cold. And if they’re struggling to fall back asleep, try a white noise channel on YouTube. It’s remarkably soothing, for the parents as well as the baby.” - Chris

"When you’re a new mum, there are a billion things to think about, so you don’t want to worry about what you put on the baby…knowing something is safe to use on your baby and is developed specifically for your baby is one less thing to think about.” - Kimberly

"I try not to get pressured by things I read or what other mums are saying or doing… I just focus on what I need to do for my kids and trust my intuition and instincts. I try and figure out what’s right for them.” – Carla
