All our lives we are bombarded with unsolicited advice and never more so than from the moment we fall pregnant, to the moment we give birth.

Eventually we figure it out, and as we muddle through this amazing parenting journey we just need that one special person we can look up to, who tells us to chill out, to relax, and to trust ourselves.

It could be a friend, a relative, a doctor or even someone from our mother’s group.

Because there’s no, ‘one parenting style that fits all’, we need to take the advice we receive and find the style that works for us, and our children.

Some of our favourite mums share some of the best parenting advice they’ve ever been given, and why it helped.
