The baby dove wipes are very cool. I like to have these handy in the car. These are very helpful when going to bday parties as you can clean the kid's hands face and mouth and even wipe the sweat off. Love the wipes. The cleaning is effective and the usefulness is good too. I keep it handy at home and in the car. Recommended for mums with super exploring kids too. Love it.

I have actually used the pack of wipes during this winter for my son and myself. Even though he is over his toilet training phase, I found these really convenient and effective to use with runny nose and cleaning and moisturizing the dry skin. Recommend for mums who have naughty kids. Pure cleaning!

I actually bought the wipes before they arrived to trial because I saw them in the shops and was very happy to get a packet to "retry"! I found them really gentle on my little ones skin! I was a bit apprehensive that the packet wasn't very large but found that they were really effective for cleaning up "messes"! Usually I'd have to use quite a few wipes for runny poos, but with the Dove wipes I used considerably less! So I think it kind of evens out in the long run! I will definitely be purchasing the Dove Wipes again!

The Baby Dove rich moisture wipes were great to trial. With the pack being smaller, I was able to take them out and about with us too. Not only convenient, but they smell amazing and make cleaning up much easier. I would definitely buy this product again and have recommended it to friends and other mums.

The moisturising properties are simply amazing with these Baby wipes from Dove. They have taken the care and research to make a wipe that is gentle enough for the most sensitive skin. I absolutely recommend.

After trialling these beautiful wipes for 2 weeks we are SOLD!
2 weeks of bottom bliss, these wipes have calmed down my babies bottom while we are going through those horrid teething nappies. I've noticed over the past 2 weeks reduced redness and irritation which is making life much happier for mum and bub. Highly recommend!
Only downside is it is a smaller pack than most other wipes on the market.

Love the smell! They aren’t as “wet” as most wipes I’ve used, which is good. Not sure if I will buy these again, as they are a little expensive for just a 50 pack. But they are a great product!

What a great wipe. Not too thin like other wipes. While being wet enough but not dripping wet. No strong smell and gentle on the skin. Not only great for nappy changes but for the older children for messy hands and face. Love these wipes and will most definitely be purchasing in the future.

We have been using these wipes for about 2 weeks now and I am still extremely impressed with the way they clean up my girls bottom. They don't feel like they would be strong but they really do a great job and I find I need alot less wipes to clean up compared to other brands. My girl hasn't had a rash/irritation the entire time using them and her skin definitely feels nice and smooth and moisturised. I have and will continue to use these wipes.

I love all the dove baby range, and my baby uses the head to toe wash and the moisturiser every day. I tried the baby wipes for the first time and was put off by the weird fragrance of the baby wipe. It left a weird smell on my baby’s skin afterwards as well. The wipe wasn’t as wet as I would like, and I needed to use a couple of wipes more than usual to clean a regular poo. Not sure if it was the pack that I had, but I don’t intend to try again. Regardless, I’ll continue to use all the other products in the range.

I like the thickness. The fragrance was nice but still gentle that it didn't irritate babies skin.
I don't like the sticker closure, I prefer plastic hard snap closures because towards the end they don't seal as well. I also think they are a bit expensive compared to other brands also because there is less in the pack. I used the pack in only two weeks.

I have been using the BabyDove Moisturising WIpes with my bub for the past week and am reasonably impressed. They have a great fragrance and feel nice and strong. not as big or as moist as some other brands but super soft. They are effective at cleaning but not drying out bubs skin and didnt cause any skin reactions. The pack is small and soft enough that it can go in your handbag for on the go hand and face cleaning too.

I found the Baby Dove wipes to have a really strong scent, which was a bit off putting when using on my little one. He is now 15 months so I tested first on his skin to make sure there was a reaction, and then only used them to clean his hands and for nappy changes. I was too cautious to use on his face as the smell was really strong and I didn't want the scent to linger on his face for him to breathe in. They were great at cleaning up grubby hands, but I would have liked them to be a bit 'wetter' as I needed to use more wipes than usual to clean up dirty nappy changes. I actually think these wipes would be perfect for adults to use to freshen up, they smell great for adults and would be a nice refresher! I would only repurchase if the scent was reduced, I prefer non-scented or mildly scented.

My son has sensitive skin and these baby wipes have been fantastic. They’re soft, thick, moist, smell nice and are gentle on his skin. They’re affordable which is important too. I found that with the size and thickness I use less wipes than some of the other brands I’ve tried. They’re soft on bums and faces! Definitely will be purchasing again, hoping to source some bulk packs

After going through a full packet of Dove Rich Moisture Wipes, I can honestly say that I will absolutely repurchase! My daughter’s sensitive skin felt hydrated when using these and they did not irritate her skin. They are just wet enough to thoroughly clean up the messiest of bottoms, which I love! Absolutely worth the money.

‘Trust Your Intuition’: How To Advocate For Your Child In Hospital
Mother’s instinct is a funny thing. At home, we trust it without question. But put us in a hospital setting with an unwell child, surrounded by doctors, nurses and monitors, and suddenly we start doubting ourselves.
What if I’m overreacting? What if I’ve got it wrong?
So we stay quiet, even when we know something just isn’t right with our child. I’ve been there myself – when my usually ‘tough’ son was doubled over with stomach pain. I was told in the emergency department that it probably wasn’t his appendix. But I knew he wouldn’t have begged me to take him to hospital unless it was serious. Because I know him better than anyone. Turns out, it was appendicitis.
It’s a really common place for parents to land. You’re grateful for the care your child is getting, but at the same time, you feel this huge responsibility to speak up if something doesn’t feel right.
Here’s the thing though: that instinct you’re feeling? It matters more than you might think.
Why your gut feeling matters more than you realise
According to Paediatric Nurse Unit Manager, Canterbury Hospital, Leticia Jackson, parents bring something to the hospital that no test or machine ever could.
“Parents often say they ‘just know’ when something isn’t quite right with their child, and in a hospital, that gut feeling is incredibly valuable,” she explains.
Leticia Jackson, Paediatric Nurse Unit Manager, Canterbury Hospital
While medical teams rely on observations, tests and equipment, parents know the little details. The way your child usually smiles. How they react when they’re tired. What’s normal for them.
So when something feels “off”, even if everything looks okay on paper, it can actually be an early warning sign.
“When parents trust those instincts and speak up, this creates a powerful partnership that can sometimes catch a problem before it becomes an emergency,” Leticia says.
Worried about speaking up? You’re not alone
A lot of parents hesitate about advocating for their child.
You don’t want to come across as difficult. You don’t want to question the people caring for your child. And sometimes, you just don’t feel confident enough to push the issue.
Leticia gets it.
“It is completely understandable for parents to feel hesitant,” she says. “No one wants to be seen as difficult or to second-guess the hardworking people caring for their child.”
But here’s a helpful way to look at it: you’re not challenging the medical team, you’re helping them.
Parents are the constant. Staff change shifts, care for multiple patients, and rely on snapshots of information. You’re there the whole time, noticing the subtle changes.
“Our medical team doesn’t view a concerned parent as overreactive, but as a partner,” Leticia explains. “Your voice matters.”
Remember, we know our children better than anyone.
What to do if you’re worried: the Raise It process
If you’re in a NSW public hospital or health service and you’re worried about you or your child’s condition getting worse, there is a clear process you can follow called Raise It.
Raise It is designed to help patients, carers and family members get help fast if they’re worried about a change in their loved one’s condition.
Here’s how it works:
Talk: Start by speaking to a nurse, midwife, doctor or health worker about your concerns.
Ask: Still worried? Ask to speak to the nurse or midwife in charge and request a Clinical Review.
Call: If you’re still concerned, you can escalate further using the Raise It process to get urgent attention from a senior health worker.
You don’t need medical knowledge. You don’t need to be certain. If you feel something isn’t right, or your child is getting worse, Raise It. You just need to speak up.
What should you actually look out for?
Sometimes it’s not one big, obvious sign. It can be small, subtle changes that just don’t sit right.
Things like:
Changes in breathing (fast, laboured or noisy)
Skin looking pale, mottled, or developing unusual rashes
Your child being unusually drowsy, floppy, or hard to wake
Confusion or behaviour that’s out of character
Pain that isn’t improving with treatment
Or simply that feeling that your child is getting worse
And sometimes, it’s just that gut feeling you can’t explain.
That’s enough.
“You are helping us, not bothering us”
If there’s one message Leticia wants parents to take away, it’s that you aren’t bothering the medical team, you’re helping them.
“In my years as a Nurse Unit Manager, I can say with absolute certainty that many critical changes in a child’s condition have been identified first by a parent. While our clinical staff are highly skilled at performing regular observations and interpreting data, parents are the only constant presence who truly know their child’s baseline behaviour, personality, and what is normal for them.
“I have seen numerous instances where a parent’s insistence that their child is “just not themselves” – despite vital signs appearing relatively stable – has prompted a deeper clinical review that uncovered everything from early signs of sepsis to a life-threatening respiratory crisis.”
The Raise It process exists because healthcare teams know how important parents are in keeping children safe.
“Speaking up doesn’t mean you don’t trust the team,” she says. “It means you’re partnering with us to make sure nothing gets missed.”
And if you’re still worried about being judged?
“Whether your concern turns out to be something or nothing, your instinct to raise it is always valid.”
Years ago, I spoke up for my 14-year-old daughter, but my concerns weren’t fully listened to. I’ve always wished I had pushed harder. She was sent home without much testing, and two days later, she passed away.
So, if you ever have concerns—no matter how minor—please speak up and keep advocating. Trust your instincts; they are there for a reason.
This is so important for parents to know how to raise it further if they don’t think their child is receiving the medical support they need! I know this article refers to the NSW system but other systems have similar procedures just with different names. I know in QLD it’s called Ryan’s Rule.
It’s so important to follow your gut instincts and express your concerns indeed. I have never hesitated to advocate for my children in various situations and I don’t care what other people think about it. Not all doctors and medical staff appreciate it when you question them, I’ve experienced that it may result in angry indignant responses.
How true this is! While nurses and doctors are the medical professionals doing their job on the daily, we know our children better than anyone and what is ‘normal’ for them. I would always speak up if I had noticed any changes in my child’s health and encourage other parents to do so too. No question is silly!
This really is such an important issue and a good topic to discuss with people, I am often surprised that people are worried about being judged. This is not something I care about; the priority is for the care and health of everyone is my family. Parents know their children and need to work with health professionals for the best outcomes for their children.
This is such an important issue to raise, and no one should ever feel ashamed, nervous or that they are being OTT for advocating for their kids, themselves or loves ones in hospital. In QLD we have Ryan’s Rule. A three step process where your concern will be escalated if they believe the patients condition isn’t improving or is worsening.
I have never been afraid to advocate for my children and partner and extended family and also friends. It is so important to listen and to trust intuition. When people have not listened, I have persevered and kept on with insisting on care and making sure they truly listened and took action.
