Today I happened upon the message that the FSID charity has changed its name, to The Lullaby Trust. The Lullaby Trust is charity which supports families who have been bereaved by SIDS, and offers advice & support on safer baby sleep. As a parent I am always worrying about little man as he is sleeping, and constantly checking on him. I still don’t get a full nights sleep because I’m constantly waking up ‘just in case’.

Well actually, I persuaded hubby to don a fancy dress outfit… Well he does say “I’d do anything for my boy”! After searching & searching, I couldn’t find an adult size one to buy, anywhere, so I thought about renting one instead. I eventually came across this site, Rentamascot based in Bristol, which had the costume to hire at which I thought was a good price, for £37, considering you actually have the costume for 4 days.
