I finally learned what the sticky bit on pull-ups is for 🙈.

[@crystalburnham9757]

0:57 Wow, I had no idea they made pull ups for younger sizes, I stopped the video and ordered them! Thanks!

[@martinabaratovatywonek3339]

Dear Emily, I want to thank you from the bottom of my heart. I am a Mum of a cute 10-months old baby girl and your vlogs have helped us with breastfeeding, weaning or other baby questions/issues. Your smiley approach showed me that it can be a lot of fun and most parents deal with the same issues. I feel like I can always look up a topic to find some guidance and information from you. Thank you!!!! Keep up the good work. Martina

[@ronellkauer7736]

Thank you. I am a first time mom. Living in south africa. My boy is 6 months old. I look your videos since i was pregnant. Thank you so much. Your helped me alot. Many blessings to you and family.

[@malkies6341]

Never have I ever subscribed to someone’s channel before they gave me a reason to subscribe.

[@elisacortez6767]

My son really loves the green straw cup too! He’s starting to crawl so I’m so glad you’re doing a video about baby proofing!

[@staceyhughes1770]

I am actually addicted to your videos lol my little one is only 4 months old but some of your tips have helped me so much. You're such a lovely person with a beautiful family and deserve all the success you get x

[@mrsemilynorris]

Ah such kind words Stacey. Thank you so much for watching xx

[@hannahjames5840]

Booster seats - the chicco travel seat is amazing. It folds up for travel, has a tray for the occasions where that's a better option and my boys love them and they are really hard wearing

[@SoSallyo]

Perfect Emily! Stair gates are the bane of my life! The amount of times I’ve tripped over those floor bars! 🙈 I do love the Ikea chair and also the brother max x

[@kym.etherington]

This has been so helpful! My son is 16 months and I'm going to try everything you reccomended!!❤️

[@katiev6456]

Hey Emily. We just took the tray off the ikea high chair and pulled it right up to the table instead of getting a booster seat. It works really well and my little one loves sitting at the big table with us xx

[@martag4002]

I recently bought the "Baby to Love Easy Up" seat from Amazon.es for my youngest and it's great. You can attach it to any chair with its adjustable straps, it's made of soft material, no hard plastic to damage your chair, it can be wiped clean as it's mostly waterproof, you can strap the baby down or not, he can rest his feet comfortably on the chair underneath... And it was very cheap! And it can be folded down for storage or eating out. It has been fantastic for us, great find xx

[@Stephc1205]

These videos always come just at the right time for my little boy who turns one this month 😀

[@hetalkamdar7007]

I am a mom of 2 boys and have actually learned every single thing from u and applied for my son now who is 5 year old and seeing ur videos for my second baby who is 6 months old ur a life saver really..thanks

[@BlancaGonzalesTheBlancaProject]

His curls are the cutest! My son also uses 2 of the 3 sippy cups you showed, the straw cup is my favorite! I love the chair wrap for a high chair on the go, such a great idea!

[@MyJewishMommyLife]

Love this! My son is almost 18 months so this was really helpful for me. I really want the Stokke Tripp Trapp high chair but it’s so pricey and like you said the IKEA one is just so good.

[@jessicaholben4543]

I love when you do these videos! my Julia is 15 months and i always get great ideas from you. Right now Julia loves pushing buttons so we gave her an old remote control and keyboard. she will push buttons for ages. Thanks so much.

[@eviexoxo6454]

My baby has just turned 14 months old and you make my life so much easier

[@georginavegan366]

Hey Emily I have been showing my 2.5 year old son your vlogs and he loves Caleb! He laughs at everything he does, and I'm hoping watching how the boys treat Jackson kindly will help Harry with his baby sister (he yells at her all day) 😓 xx thank you from Australia

[@sophiemiller9873]

We use the mothercare seat it's kind of like a bumbo but has straps underneath that you attach to the chair , it has waist straps & a tray and a button on the bottom to swivvel the chair around it's so good & comfy too & easy to clean

[@ashagoud4069]

Always helpful for new mums.. one or the other tip you give is just what i am looking for.. Thanks for making these videos.

[@AbiBaxter1]

We just bought a seat from mamas and pappas to use as our main high chair for our 6 month old. It has an insert you can take out so it will fit up to about 3 years old. It's great!

[@van9825]

Thank you for this video Emily! Definitely gonna look into all products ♥️

[@chloepiotrowski1611]

Thanks for your video Emily!! Found it super helpful as always! Love your channel!❤️

[@ImmaPandaRawr]

I love pampers pull ups too! We were struggling so much with our wiggly 10 month old and those things were a life saver. Thanks for this video! I’m a ftm and my baby’s first Christmas and first birthday are a month apart. We’ve avoided purchasing any toys recently waiting for these two events. I was a little lost trying to figure out what to buy him. I

[@JessicaNicoleFaust]

Ahh pull ups! I guess I never thought of using those instead, because my daughter is 15 months and she is not good with diaper changes! Yes, sleep sacks are a must! 👍 Love those gates! Perfect! His hair is so sweet!! So curly!!!❤️

[@austrasadvice9955]

Hi! I love your videos so much! I started to follow you when i got pregnant and on Wednesday my baby princess will be one year old already 😢😍 I have learnt so much from you! Thank you for that! You make my parenthood even more enjoyable! 🙏

[@CharleneHawley]

I love the Ikea high chair, if you take the tray off it sits right up to the table to save you buying a booster x

[@faizaelaz2978]

Thanks for this video it has been really helpful. I’ve just bought the jo mama bene portable high chair. Can’t wait to use it.

[@criscrisgar]

Emily!!! I LOOOOOOOOVE your videos! I just love you and I am so happy that I found your channel!! :) Keep up the amazing work!

[@jennycraig4929]

Love your videos! I’m due my first baby in April and watching your pregnancy updates & baby videos have really helped me! 👶🏻 xxx

[@jennyangelle]

My favorite part of your videos like this or clothing hauls is while you are telling us about the product you also show a video clip of it!! My youngest is 8 but I watch every video you make🤣👍🏻🙌🏼💟

[@rebeccahaidry3383]

My daughter is 15 months old. Nappy changing is the hardest she runs away. The pampers pull ups helps. Bepanthan nappy cream is the best. My little girl had a bad nappy rash it helped it heal quickly. I love calpol it helps with teething. My daughter loves textured books. Nice video. I'm a new subscriber.

[@amandaprovience8457]

I finally got the Ikea highchair and love it! One of my baby must haves is a teething toy that vibrates when she bites on it.

[@sonalyadav373]

I used the Summer booster seat. I’ve actually used that with my little one from the moment she started weaning. I just found it easier having a booster rather than the high chair

[@loumt8349]

I don't even have kids yet and I'm watching your videos religiously 😂 taking notes for later! Love your channel Xx.

[@amityadams]

Hi Emily. I love this post! Thank you for sharing. Try CANTU kids leave in cream (comes in a tub). I use that for the daytime for my daughter's curls and their detangled for night time. It holds it very nicely.

[@NicsNutrition]

Ahh my baby is 11mo now and I can relate to this video so much!! It also makes me so excited for the months to come!!

[@kemilola]

Hi Emily! The best tip for curly hair is to not brush out the curls, but rather, finger comb the curls when it is still wet/damp. The curls follow their natural pattern and last much longer. Love your channel and videos! ❤️

[@emmaslater7101]

Loving the fabric highchair! I got one when I saw it in your baby bag vlog. We also brought a Summer Infant Sit n Style booster seat. It attached to a chair at any table, it has its own tray, a handy compartment at the back to store snacks and beakers in, and it folds up. I got it from amazon and it's so reasonable. Not sure if it's exactly what you're looking for for Jackson but maybe worth a look x

[@MariumHanif]

I love this idea of having different stage essentials!! great idea! x

[@UmmSh]

Yesss! Emily always coming through with these videos 😍 so useful and beneficial. 😘😘

[@saradk9493]

Perfect timing. My son is 3 months younger than Jackson. I’ll for sure get him a stacking toy.

[@jasmineochoa5374]

I love watching your videos you’re one of my favorite KZbin’s 💖 It doesn’t matter what it’s about your videos always bring my mood up ! Thank you for being so amazing !

[@emmawilson5240]

Love watching your vlogs. Even though I don't have a child. I still get excited when u upload a video! xx

[@jenniferjones5658]

I'd definitely recommend the chicco pocket snack booster, it's a travel one as well, we take it over to the grandparents all the time and its height adjustable so will fit any table. My daughter is 14 months now she absolutely loves cars and monster trucks, they were actually my older brothers when he was a kid

[@jessicastoch7042]

I love your channel so much and as an au pair I often find myself coming back and watching all your videos more than once for tips tricks and hacks. thank you so much for your hard work and dedication to this channel, i cannot tell you how much i enjoy listening to you talk. i love that you never drag on for any topic and you always keep things upbeat and interesting. Jess

[@mrsemilynorris]

Ah Jess I love the way you have put this. Matt always says that I am authentic but direct, which is how I want to come across to be honest. So interesting that you're an au pair and my videos interest you. Thank you so much for watching xx

[@freespiritdamsel]

I have been loving your posts and subscribed to your channel because I find your videos entertaining and highly informative since I delivered my baby. I love your must have videos and regrets. Looking forward to more of these vids.

[@hinds7424]

Hi Emily I live your videos very inspiring and helpful I've been binge watching your old videos and I must say you have become one of my favourite KZbinrs 💖

[@sarahsharon5210]

I always thought it was so funny that your youngest and my first had the same due date, and now they have the same favorite movies as well.

[@cd6313]

Love these videos! So helpful. Thank you x

[@johanahaziza2516]

The portable high chair! That's perfect! Thank you for these useful videos!:)

[@lauras.9143]

Hi Emily :) I absolutely love your videos, you are so encouraging and such an inspiration to this new mom.

[@munirapatel6270]

Mamas and papas seat is the best , I have it for my bub and we love it ❤️

[@victoriaowen3359]

Love this video, my son just turned one so can't wait to see what you use. Love watching your videos while I do the morning routine with my two. X

[@nope31697]

Use a wooden wide tooth comb! Brushes frizz and flatten curls. I recommend Aussie kids, when he's older

[@samanthabullock20]

We have the same stair gates from 7 years ago too! They were pricey but defo worth the investment 👌🏼 x

[@rhiaking]

Great ideas, my little girl is about to turn one! Thanks Emily xxx

[@1siimple]

My little boy is almost 3 but I still love watching you do these videos lol

[@jennifersmith2750]

Scrunch mousse into his curls with your hands. Works great!! I bet he gets comments on his lovely curls all the time 😍 my little boy always did & now he's 9 he has really cool, surfy looking wavy hair lol suits my son's laid back personality perfectly! Love your channel xo

[@aidam.ndiongue3952]

Thank you for making videos like this, I always get good ideas from it!!! P. S: I've been following /watching you ever since I became pregnant (I'm a mom of a 5mo old baby girl) and finally, for the first time left comment today, yay!

[@valerieg5469]

For curly hair - wide tooth comb (brushes and fine tooth combs damage curls and make them very frizzy), leave in conditioner is great!

[@yurjhr1662]

Thank you!

[@brianaxo8265]

❣️❣️ I also love the mat and munchkin cup to bathe them

[@LaurenYaxley]

Loved watching this video we have so many of the same essentials but then our boys are not far apart! looking gorgeous as ever Emily xx

[@emilymaggs2077]

Happy Monday. We're eating Ravioli and watching Emily Norris xx from Italy

[@mrsemilynorris]

Wow so Italian! Thank you so much for watching Emily xx

[@thistleandlavendercrochet]

Thank you for this video! My little one turns 1 tomorrow and your videos have been so helpful x

[@kullybasi1500]

I’m a first time mummy and I’ve learnt so much from your videos. My son is 16 months old too, I suffered with post natal depression and I can honestly say your videos given me so many positive vibes and confidence with my baby. Thank you so much. Can you please do a potty training hacks video and how you trained your boys, when to start training etc? Xx

[@amandab6034]

We love the “That’s not my “ book series.

[@vivianlee438]

I love my bumbo as a booster/high chair. I have never had a proper high chair coz I have no room in my dinning room so I just used a bumbo multi seat. I've been using it with the foam insert coz my baby was still small but as she grows bigger, I can take off the foam part so she can use that till she's 3 years old.

[@sailorcheri]

I went back and just re-watched this video as my little one is turning 1 year old next week (eeek!). My recommendation for sippy cups would be the Munchkin Miracle 360 cups. I only just got them last week and didn't know how long he would take to get used to it. But he's doing great and knows how to drink out of them already. Plus they don't leak either!

[@katieg286]

My daughter just turned 1 yesterday. This video has been very helpful xxx love your videos emily.

[@maniismonologues7721]

For curls, try Curly Kids curl gel. It’s in clear container with a bright yellow top .

[@SalmaANM]

I loved mamas and papas baby bud booster seat, used it for 5 years and now passed on to my nephew

[@kyeiwaah]

I needed this 🙌🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾

[@cristamoody6024]

So so helpful thank you so much xxx

[@sianmcdowell178]

As for booster seats we HIGHLY HIGHLY HIGHLY recommend the Tripp Trapp chair - we use them as both a high chair (with a harness) and as a kids chair - thy're a great investment as they can go on to be used for adults. They are adjustable for ANY age. They are so good looking too.

[@lisabarnwell8409]

Emily I have curls (a mop top of ringlets as a child) and my boys have baby curls. If you brush through his curls when wet after the bath, and then separate them a bit with your fingers, that should define them. Just don't brush them when dry (that will only make them frizzy), best way to revive curls is to spritz them with a spray bottle of water, and run a wider tooth comb through them. You could use a spritz of your detangle spray on the ends then as well :)

[@j.amberpetree5032]

Hi Emily! If you feel like making your own hair gel, try homemade flax seed gel. It’s light, holds curls so well & is natural. ❤️

[@foreverdreamingx89]

Oooh! Great products. Pampers pull ups are amazing! My favourites are Ellas and Organix snacks (lots of good dairy and soya free options - LO is allergic). I’ve found munchkin click lock sippy cups great, they’re the only ones that haven’t leaked everywhere when she’s thrown them. Jojo maman bebe do a sleepsuit which works well for my daughter as it gives her more freedom and movement than a sleep sack. Nuby do a bottle leash thing which is great if your baby likes to throw their bottle on the floor. Smartrikes are also a big hit here.

[@deechubbby]

We have Chicco snack booster chair. It's two thumbs up for travelling as well, you jus fold it as flat as a sling bag. We love it, hint: they have Gray color! 😉

[@xostargirl-se7ju]

Argos have amazing booster seats that are really portable so i really recomend those and there are so many of them so you can choose colours/styles

[@melaniebarclay466]

Great video, I love your channel, my little boy is 6 months old and I have found all of your videos so helpful the whole journey through!! Thank you for sharing!! X

[@pianopaws88]

Such perfect timing!! My daughter's birthday is next month!

[@monakeulen5622]

The green strawcup from Munchkin definitely is one of our favourites since Asiya is 6 months old. I bought exactly the same out of impulse, but it turns out to be our best one ! Asiya knocks down blocktowers as well now. She's 10 months now, but loves blocks since she was 7 months old. So blocks of any kind are definitely a must have. As are books. Especially with textures or flaps. We live in a busy city, so we have to travel a lot with public transport, so our baby carrier from Tula really comes in handy (strollers in trains and busses give such a big headache!). And she's standing and trying to walk around now so edges of any kind are favourite :) Hope she will be as good as Jackson soon ! She loves watching him too ... either Watching your vids, Peppa pig or hiho kids (especially when they eat, it helps her too eat too).

[@brendac9352]

Love your videos, Emily!!

[@ct7414]

my boy is 1 on the 27th I was stuck on what to get him this has gave me good ideas ☺️ would love to see an 12-18month routine for Jackson I loved watching all your other routine vids Xxx

[@savannabirks8848]

U should definitely try the first years booster seat all boosters from first years are amazing

[@victoriaignatova4181]

Hi Emily, I love your videos and thank you so much for all the ideas you give for baby essentials. Please can you do a video on a toy clear out? How you decide which toys ti keep/donate/get rid of? Much love to you and your gorgeous family ❤️

[@beckygiles7023]

Trip Trap chair are really good - children can use them as the grow up as well. Also, I love your videos!!!!

[@trisann345]

I love your videos... It helps me so much with my baby ❤️❤️ thank you

[@zoeheanue2964]

Hi Emily. You mentioned you were looking for a baby seat so baby can sit at the table.... we use the stokke tripp trapp and love it. I've used it from birth and now baby is 11months and 2 weeks and she has always eaten at the table with us, this has to be my n°1 buy. Love your videos been watching them since I was pregnant. Thanks for sharing xx

[@becshollick9936]

Love this!

[@charlotteirwin672]

Emily I am sure Jackson would love a scuttle bug too, both my children have been huge fans of them and they are so good to take out for the day to the park 😃.

[@qamarnawazish237]

My baby is 2 months but I love 💕 this video and saved it👌❤️ thank u

[@meganwatson6589]

Shes actually flawless, lovely skin hair and lovely teeth!

[@JayforLife88]

Thank u ! Informative as usual! My recommendation for a booster seat is mamas and papas .. even my four year old uses it sometimes .. it’s s great quality !

[@jessicawright359]

OXO tot does a booster seat which good comes in some nice colours plus fold down if you want to take it out with you easy

[@amandatacos2]

I made a video similar ! My son's favorite toy is a play Dyson vacuum. Seriously the best thing. He also loves the Melissa and Doug stacking toys ! It's interesting to see what they both like because they're only a couple days apart !

[@emilymoseley2485]

I just love watching you.

[@emilygillies2751]

Yes! That ikea high chair! I bought one because of your last favourites video and I absolutely LOVE it! I also have an Emma Bridgewater Mummy mug and method cleaner because of you haha. They're all amazing :)
