The Raised By Wool Shop

13/07/2023

This little octopus is available on my Etsy store (link in bio) £12.99.
The perfect gift 🎁 for babies, children or even adults…why? Because this toy is a sensory fidget toy. The tentacles are great for sensory play for babies, or as distractions from stressors or lack of focus for anyone that suffers with ADD, ADHD, Autism, Anxiety or depression.

This October I will taking part in Crochet Challenge.
My daughter Ruby was hospitalised at 8 weeks old with Sepsis.
As a first time mom and with little awareness of Sepsis I feel, looking back, I did miss quite a few obvious signs.
- Ruby was mottled. You always get told that newborns are mottled however, Ruby was mottled even when she was warm and she was mottled all over her torso.
- Bringing up feeds. Ruby was being sick at every feed. Almost her whole feed every time. As a fist time mom being told you have a “sicky baby” normalised this scenario which meant I did not raise the alarm as soon as this started happening.
After ringing 111 the operator asked me questions about Ruby and her feeding which gave me a moment of realisation that what was happening wasn’t normal.
An ambulance was dispatched and we were taken to our nearest hospital. Ruby underwent a lumbar puncture and was treated for Sepsis. She was admitted to the children’s ward for 7 days and then spent another 7 days as an outpatient, returning everyday for IV antibiotics.
Being aware of the symptoms of sepsis is so important and as a mother I’d I have ANY concerns about any symptoms my children are showing I call a healthcare professional.
Forever grateful to the staff at New Cross for their fast action.
This October I will be taking part in the crochet challenge which requires you to crochet every day of October.
Every day I will crochet a “granny square” these will be crocheted together to form a patchwork blanket. This blanket will be raffled off on 1st November. For every £1 you donate you will get one entry to the raffle. This raffle will be running from page so go follow to keep updated!!
DONATIONS ARE TAKEN VIA MY FACEBOOK PAGE PLEASE FIND LINK IN MY FUNDRAISING HIGHLIGHT OR DM!
Thank you for your support in advance! 🧶♥️

It’s a rainy Friday here! 🌧 These guys are making us want to snuggle on the sofa and watch The Little Mermaid!
But these octopus 🐙 really are the ⭐️ of their own show! Studies show that these guys are great comforters to babies who have to start life in neonatal units or have rushed into the world 🌎 a little sooner than expected! . They help babies leave any medical wires alone and play with the octopus tentacles instead. If you are lucky enough to take your little one home 🏡 without any hospital stays these work just as good as a safe baby sensory toy for little fingers.
