Washing your hair can feel like a real chore, and we all have our own unique hair care routines. I have long, fine hair but I have a hell of LOT of it so it can feel quite thick and heavy and take ages to blow dry! Personally, I find washing daily is too much for me as it tends to leave my hair feeling dry and damaged.

The emotional strain of having a premature baby can be enormous. Around 60,000 babies are born prematurely in the UK, each year. In fact, the rate of preterm birth is between seven to eight per cent. A 'premature' baby is one that is born before 37 weeks. If your baby is born early they may need special care as they may not be fully developed. For many of these babies, an early arrivalmeans a fight for survival and months of uncertainty for parents.
