Tummy Time for Baby's Development

Tummy Time: Why It Matters (and How to Make It Easier) Tummy time is one of those things you hear about early on in parenthood - right up there with sleep routines, feeding cues, and learning to drink a hot cup of tea while it's still warm! It’s recommended for your baby’s development, but the reality is, many little ones aren’t too thrilled about it at first. The good news? There are ways to make it easier for both of you. Before we get into the tips and tricks, let’s take a quick look at what tummy time actually is, and why it matters so much. Why is tummy time important? When your baby spends time on their tummy (while awake and supervised), they’re doing more than just working those tiny muscles. Tummy time plays a key role in helping to: Strengthen their neck, shoulders, arms, and back Support healthy motor development (like lifting their head, rolling over, and eventually crawling) Prevent flat spots on the back of their head (also known as positional plagiocephaly) It’s also laying the groundwork for milestones down the track. Chiropractor Dr Ainslee explains that, “Research has confirmed that tummy time not only helps children meet gross motor milestones like crawling, walking, and jumping. It also supports their social, cognitive, and learning development later in life.” So, what counts as tummy time? Tummy time doesn’t always have to mean placing your baby directly on the floor. It’s any time your baby is tummy-down while they’re awake and being supervised. Dr Ainslee puts it beautifully - it’s about “handling a baby in a way that naturally facilitates the development of interactive head control.” That means there are lots of ways to fit tummy time into your daily routine - even in those early newborn weeks. Gentle ways to start tummy time If your baby isn’t loving tummy time just yet, that’s okay. Start small and keep it gentle. Chest-to-chest: One of the easiest and most comforting ways to begin. Lie back and place your baby tummy-down on your chest. Skin-to-skin adds even more benefits. Football hold: Hold your baby tummy-down along your forearm, with your hand supporting their tummy and your other hand under their head. Keep them close - this one’s great for newborns. Across your lap: Another simple option that gives your baby some tummy time and lets you sneak in a burp or a cuddle. Baby expert Dorothy Waide encourages parents to start early, even just for a few seconds at a time. “The sooner you start, the quicker baby will adapt. If you begin with short bursts after each nap, you’ll soon find your little one starts to enjoy it more and more.” Making tummy time fun Tummy time doesn’t have to feel like a chore - for either of you. The more engaging it is, the more likely your baby will stick with it (and enjoy it too!). Try: Getting down to their level: Lie on the floor beside them, chat, sing, or just keep them company. Using mirrors or books: A mirror or a high-contrast board book placed in front of your baby can be fascinating for those curious eyes. Sensory toys: Toys like this Farm Activity Playmat are designed to make tummy time more exciting.  It includes a removable cushion, a flip-up mirror, a delightful 3D farm animal, a squeaker animal, a teething toy, and an array of textures to touch and feel, making it an ideal companion for endless fun and learning. Supportive gear that can help The Little Bee by Dimples Baby Lounger is a handy tool for tummy time. It’s designed with a gently raised end that gives your baby the right angle to strengthen their upper body muscles in a supported way. The flat end provides a comfy space for rest - so it’s a multitasker. The Doomoo Softy is another great tummy time option — especially for younger babies. Drape your little one over the soft cushion so their arms and chest rest on it. It gently raises their upper body, helping them lift their head and build strength without feeling too flat on the floor. Plus, it doubles as a comfy feeding or lounging cushion when tummy time’s done. The takeaway? You don’t have to do it all at once — and your baby doesn’t have to love it right away. Like most things in early parenthood, tummy time is a journey. Start slow, keep it playful, and know that every minute counts. If you’re looking for supportive products to make tummy time easier, explore our collection of sensory play mats, baby loungers, and purpose-designed tummy time toys. You've got this.

Welcome to Fatherhood: New Dads and Dads-to-Be - Dimples

Welcome to Fatherhood: New Dads and Dads-to-Be

Congratulations, Dad 🤩 First off, huge congratulations! You’re about to embark on one of the most rewarding journeys of your life. Whether you’re a first-time dad or this is round two (or three!), there’s no denying how incredible this experience will be. Sure, it might come with a few sleepless nights and some unknowns along the way, but trust us – it’s going to be amazing.Fatherhood isn’t about being perfect – it’s about being there, learning as you go, and embracing every moment, big or small. You’ll have days filled with firsts, plenty of laughter, and some truly special memories. And remember, it’s okay if you don’t have everything figured out – you’re not alone on this journey. We’ve put together some helpful tips and advice to support you as you navigate these early days, so you can feel confident and prepared. The road ahead is exciting, and you’re going to be a wonderful dad. Let’s get started – you’ve got this! Support During The Pregnancy Journey Pregnancy brings plenty of changes – not just for mums, but for you, too. You might not be the one carrying the baby, but your support can make a huge difference. Here’s how to be the kind of partner your family will thank you for later. Start by learning and getting involved Understanding pregnancy helps you feel more confident and prepared. Check out a few articles, read a few books or dive into an online course for new dads.  It can also be incredibly helpful to attend check-ups, which will keep you connected and informed. Ask questions, take in the details, and get to know your baby’s journey. Pick up a few extra chores As the bump grows, so does the to-do list. Take on more housework, drive to appointments, and let your partner rest. Don’t be afraid to ask for help – teamwork makes it easier. Get involved with meals Food might be a bit of a rollercoaster during pregnancy, so try to help where you can – cooking, meal planning, or just making sure there’s something in the fridge that actually sounds good today. And if your partner suddenly needs a very specific brand of ice cream at 9pm… well, that’s your time to shine. Be steady during the ups and downs Hormones can make emotions more intense. Be patient, listen well, and remember: sometimes just being there is enough. Look after your own wellbeing It’s easy to put your own needs on the backburner, but your mental health matters too. Talk openly with your partner, ask lots of questions, and check in with how you’re feeling. A calm, supported dad makes a big difference to the whole family. Think ahead Before baby arrives, research and get organised: Choose and install the car seat (Dimples can help with installation and advice) Set up baby’s space (even if they start in your room). Stock up on nappies, wipes, swaddles, and clothes. Merino is the ultimate in newborn clothing. Learn more about this here Cook and freeze a few meals – thank yourself later! And remember, you don’t need to have it all figured out. Just show up, learn as you go, and be there when it counts. You’ve got this – and feel free to sneak in a dad joke or two (just maybe not at 3am). Now... Baby Has Arrived! 🐣 Bonding with Your Newborn Studies show that active involvement from dads helps with emotional development, cognitive skills, and even reduces stress for both baby and parents. Bonding early on lays the foundation for a strong relationship as your little one grows. Here are a few ways to bond: Skin-to-skin contact: Take a moment to strip down and let your baby lie on your chest. This helps regulate their body temperature and heartbeat, while also releasing oxytocin, the "love hormone," for both of you. Talk and sing: Babies love hearing your voice. Even if you're off-key, read books, sing, or narrate your day ("Time for the big diaper change!"). Your voice will comfort them. Wear your baby: A baby carrier is an easy way to keep your newborn close while you move around. The warmth and motion strengthen your bond, and it gives you some extra dad points. We love this one by Nuna - we stock a few different kinds of carrier. Our store can help you with this if you want to pop in. Support Mum’s Healing The first weeks after birth can be tough for mum. Give her space to heal, and take charge of housework and meal prep. Whether it’s cleaning up, tidying, or letting her nap, your support will help her adjust and feel cared for. Taking Care of Yourself Parenting is a team effort, so don't forget to take care of yourself. Get rest when you can, eat well, and ask for help if you need it. You’ll be much more equipped to care for your little one if you're taking care of your own well-being. Finding Your Routine In the early days, life with a newborn can feel chaotic. Establishing a simple routine will help everyone feel more secure. It doesn’t have to be perfect, but having a basic rhythm for naps, feedings, and bedtime makes things easier as you go. Trusting Your Instincts You might not have all the answers, but trust your instincts. If something doesn’t feel right, speak up. You’ll figure it out along the way – you’re learning every day, and that’s enough. Accepting Help There’s no need to do everything yourself. Accept help when it’s offered – whether it’s a meal from a friend or a family member taking over a diaper change. It’ll make this journey smoother for everyone. Connecting with Each other And Celebrating the Small Wins Parenting is full of big milestones, but it’s the little victories that count too. Celebrate your baby’s first smile, a good night’s sleep, or the first successful outing. These moments are worth appreciating. Parenthood can be all-consuming, but it’s really important to find time for your relationship with your partner. Even simple moments, like enjoying a coffee together, can help you stay connected and grounded amidst the chaos. A Few More Tips Swaddle like a pro: Swaddling can help soothe your baby and improve their sleep. Merino or cotton is the best option. See our range Here Change bag: Keep a change bag handy: Have nappies, wipes, and a spare outfit packed and ready – you never know when you'll need them. Here are a few options for change bags at Dimples. And most importantly: Have fun! Parenting is a learning experience, so embrace it – and don’t forget to build your dad-joke repertoire! Fatherhood is an incredible journey – full of joy, challenges, and unforgettable moments. Dimples is here to support you every step of the way with all the essentials you need to be the best dad you can be. Enjoy every moment, because these early days will fly by ❤️

Midwife or Obstetrician – Which One? - Dimples

Midwife or Obstetrician – Which One?

Finding the Right Maternity Carer for You Once the excitement (or surprise!) of a positive pregnancy test settles in, one of the first big decisions to make isn’t about names or nursery colours – it’s about choosing the person who’ll care for you throughout your pregnancy journey. In New Zealand, this person is called your Lead Maternity Carer (LMC) – and they’ll be by your side during pregnancy, labour, birth, and the early weeks of life with your newborn.Both midwives and obstetricians can act as your LMC, and while they offer many of the same services, there are some key differences to consider. Here’s a gentle guide to help you choose the care that’s right for you and your baby. Midwife or Obstetrician – What’s the Difference? In general, midwives are the experts in normal, low-risk pregnancies, offering continuity of care and a more holistic approach to birth. Obstetricians, on the other hand, are medical doctors who specialise in pregnancy complications and are trained in surgical procedures such as caesareans. Midwife care is free in New Zealand. Obstetric care is private and typically costs between $3,000–$5,000. Obstetricians often take a more clinical approach and may perform scans at every appointment. Midwives focus on natural birth and provide emotional and physical support throughout your labour.If your pregnancy is high-risk – such as a twin pregnancy, gestational diabetes, or a known medical condition – you’ll likely be referred to an obstetrician, either privately or through your local hospital. Can I Use a Hospital-Based Midwife? Yes – if a private obstetrician or community-based midwife doesn’t feel like the right fit, you can also receive care through a hospital-based midwife. These midwives, sometimes referred to as “core midwives,” are employed by public hospitals and provide maternity care within the hospital system. Around 15% of New Zealand mothers choose this model, either from the start or as part of a shared-care arrangement.  Hospital-based midwives typically step in when additional support is needed – for example, if complications arise during pregnancy, or if your community LMC is unavailable during labour. In many cases, you’ll receive antenatal care from a combination of professionals, including hospital midwives and obstetricians, with all costs covered through the public system. If you like the idea of continuity but want the reassurance of hospital-based expertise, this model offers a nice balance. It’s a great option for those wanting cost-free care, access to specialist services, and a supportive hospital environment. Things to Think About When Choosing Your LMC 1. How Often Do You Want to See Your Baby? If regular reassurance is important to you, you may prefer the more frequent ultrasounds offered by many obstetricians. Midwives track baby’s growth by feeling your bump and will refer you for routine scans at key stages. 2. Your Preferences Around Pain Relief If you’re keen on trying unmedicated birth methods like water, massage or movement, a midwife may be more aligned with your approach. Midwives often focus on natural techniques, while obstetricians are more likely to facilitate medical interventions such as epidurals. 3. What’s Your Budget? Having a baby is expensive – and private obstetric care can be a stretch for many families. If you’d rather invest in other baby essentials (like that dream pram or a few months of parental leave), midwifery care may make more sense financially. 4. Where Do You Want to Give Birth? Midwives support a range of birth settings – from hospitals to birth centres to your own home. Obstetricians generally operate within hospitals, and home births aren’t an option under their care. Keep in mind that medical pain relief (like epidurals) is only available in hospital settings. 5. Your Connection Matters Perhaps the most important thing is choosing someone you feel safe and comfortable with. Midwives often spend more time with you during labour and birth, and the relationship can feel more personal. Obstetricians may come and go during labour, sometimes arriving just in time for the final moments. In hospital births, midwives will still be involved – even if you’re under obstetric care. Listen to Your Instincts Like many parenting decisions, choosing the right carer is often about listening to your gut. Do you feel heard? Supported? Understood? That connection matters.Have open conversations early on about your hopes for birth – including where you’d like to deliver, your thoughts on interventions, and how involved you want your carer to be. Most importantly, know that you’re allowed to change your LMC if things don’t feel quite right down the track. This is your journey – and you deserve to feel safe, supported, and confident every step of the way. You can begin your search for a local midwife through Find Your Midwife.

Newmarket Store Closed Temporarily Following Fire

Newmarket Store Closed Temporarily Following Fire

We’re devastated to share that there was a random arson attack on two businesses in the early hours of Sunday morning (21/9/25) resulting in a fire at our Newmarket store - read the NZ Herald article here. Thankfully, no one was hurt, but we’re still working through the shock and sadness of it all; it’s been a heavy few days to process. The Newmarket store will be closed temporarily while we re-build As we’ve had more access to the building we’ve realised the scope of the damage, which is significant, and will likely to take a couple of months to repair. Make sure you follow us on social media to keep up with our progress. Fortunately our head office, warehouse, and dispatch operations haven’t been affected. If you need anything, you can continue to support us by shopping online. And of course, our Christchurch store is open as usual. Thank you for your understanding and support during this time - it truly means the world to us.
