I always thought it was weird that there was no lift up to the second floor in the Shanghai Centre and then recently I was finally enlightened by a friend. It’s hidden but it’s there, right by the cash machines on the side of City Super. Finally easy access to World Link!
Theo is one and yes he still wakes up a night for a booby fix, once in the middle of the night and early morning.. more if he’s unwell or teething or whatever. I really want to keep breastfeeding him as I think it’s good for him but I’m starting to get a little tired of night feedings. Most people advocate tough love, as in letting him cry it out but I really don’t think I can do that… I just had a look online and read about babies who still wake up at 2 or 3 years old… have I created a booby monster?

Thanks to Pippa for sending this info round!
Lollipop calls itself “a boutique for children in shanghai”, the word boutique says it all… they don’t accept credit cards which only means you should come with a very full wallet if you want to have some fun!
They stock yummy beautiful trendy things, one of those stores where you go “oh that’s cute” at everything, whether you really “need” any of it is irrelevant I suppose..
They sell cloth diapers (Bambino Mio and Fuzzibunz), really cool stick-unstick art for the wall, really nice cards and these great lunch boxes and plates.
It’s a great place to go to for gifts.
Come and join the cloth diaper mamas of Shanghai to learn about how to use this environment saving- money saving way to keep those baby bottoms covered. The meeting is organized by IMSG, I have pasted part of the email below.
Our next mums and babes event Puxi is on Friday 18th April from 9.30 – 12.00noon at: Green Valley Villas 999 Jian He Lu, Hong Qiao
This Friday is a special meeting as we will be holding a ’show and tell’ workshop about cloth diapers / nappies. The workshop is intended for anyone already using cloth diapers, those considering it and anyone who has an interest. (Please help us spread the word.)
All mums who already use cloth diapers can come along and share their
knowledge and experience by bringing along examples of their favourite
(and least favourite) nappies, nappy covers etc. Any information you may have on
using, buying, ordering, washing etc. (Or if you would like to find out more then join us too.)
We plan to have tables so we can
lay out the nappies and then everyone can look, chat and learn. Don’t forget to bring
along any nappies that you would like to show to other mums.
We will have Grace from LOLLIPOP boutique who will bring Bambino Mio and Fuzzibunz diapers for demo and sale. Also Yvonne Swerke will bring Swedish Imse Vimse Diapers for demo and sale. Others which I know will be shared are Tots Bots, Bumgenius, plain prefolds, bumble…….
I hope there are more of you out there who will participate.
Please let us know in advance if you are planning on bringing diaper samples to share so we can be prepared with enough tables. Thanks.
