Hey UK mums I need advice, we're moving back-what do I buy?

Hi there UK mums, we are heading back to England in 10 weeks for good and there are certain things we can't bring back with us. Can you recommend what would be a good make of the following to get:

Car seats and pushchair (ones that click into the pushchair).

Video monitor

Breast pump - double electric

What formula do you use? They don't do Similac there, so I need a replacement. We have no allergies as I know of, so a milk based one would be fine. LO is 5 months and has been on the high calorie one since day one as she is tiny.

Anything else I need to think of. I've bought some warmer clothes and coats. Where is a good place to shop for stuff. I know of mothercare, is that still good or do I just use Amazon.

I'm already stocking up on bottles and replacement nipples as they don't sell the bottles in the UK. Scary stuff, just when we got used to baby stuff in the USA.

Oh yeah, what about mums and tots groups. I know most mums are friends with their NCT/pre-natal class mates, but how do new mums and dads get into a group. do they have "Meet Up" out there? Thanks in advance for your help and advice.

  • Thank you so much @ShellsBells1980‌, that is so helpful. I have a Medela pump here but it won't work in the uk due to the voltage, and with the amount I use it, I can't use batteries.

    We're moving back to the north west, Runcorn to be exact but I'll be working in Liverpool.
