When I had my first baby, I quickly discovered that everyone has an opinion on how to raise children. From well-meaning friends and family to health visitors and online forums, there’s no shortage of parenting advice for new parents in the UK. Add to that the stack of books and leaflets I’d collected, and I felt overwhelmed. But if there’s one thing I’ve learned on my motherhood journey, it’s this: it’s your baby, and it’s your choice how you nurture and care for them.
