M&S are having a serious moment and this is what we’re shopping this fall

M&S shopping

M&S has long been our reliable go-to for just about everything. From adorable white sleepsuits for those precious early weeks, to the trusty maternity bras that we actually feel comfortable wearing, M&S really do have it all.

They have also just launched their new loyalty rewards scheme, The Parent Hood. Aimed at mums and dads, this loyalty scheme is slightly different to their Sparks personalised offers and rewards as it offers something a little extra for you and your little one. There’s money off essential products like 10% off baby grows for a whole year as well as weekly parent and baby coffee mornings at their cafes in the UK where you can enjoy a well earned free slice of cake with any hot drink – as if we needed an excuse for cake?

Whatever you’re in need of, we’ve rounded up our top picks from M&S to shop right now so you can spend less time browsing and more time bonding with your baby!

The best M&S baby and toddler wear to shop this season

Although we're still clinging onto summer, the cold, wet weather is just around the corner, and for parents, a puddlesuit is a must have for the autumn season. Whether they're rolling in the leaves or splashing around in puddles, this puddlesuit will keep them dry and comfortable thanks to the fleece lining. The front fastens with poppers and a zip and the handy foot stirrups hold the legs in place so they don't bunch up when wearing wellies. This suit is also available in a navy design as well as a floral suit and dinosaur themed suit.

If only they did this in an adult size! This chic striped jumper is ideal for wearing between seasons and the half zip can be worn zipped up or zipped down for a more casual look for little one. Available from 0-3 years, we love that this also comes in the opposite colour way with navy background.

This chic cable knit all in one is available in two neutral shades and in sizes newborn to 12 months. Not only is it perfect for the autumn months, it's also super soft and comfy, even for more special occasions. The sweet bow on top adds a delicate touch and thanks to the blend of fabrics, it can be washed at 40 degrees!

Pure Cotton Striped RomperM&S

If you're still soaking up the last weeks of summer or heading somewhere sunny on holiday, then you'll want to add this striped romper to your basket to make an adorable and easy summer outfit for your tot. We think this would look great paired with a pair of sandals and a straw hat.

The teddy bear range of accessories and baby clothes at M&S is just adorable, and these sweet little hats with their little teddy ears are ideal for keeping baby heads warm. Made with added stretch for extra comfort, this pack of three hats are an ideal gender neutral gift for a new baby.

Wellies are a must have for any toddler throughout their childhood, and these classic yellow wellies from Jojo Maman Bébé are ideal for little feet. As they're ankle length, they'll feel comfortable and the easy pull-on style are simple to take off and on.

M&S Maternity wear buys

A trusty pair of maternity jeans is something every maternity wardrobe needs as jeans really do go with everything. This pair is available in both a blue and black wash and come with a built-in wide, over bump band to keep you snug all day long. They can easily be dressed up or down and we just love how M&S jeans offer short, regular and long length in their maternity trousers and jeans for all you shorter and taller mamas to be.

Whether you're heading off on your baby moon or treating yourself to a maternity spa day, a maternity swimsuit is a must have if you want to keep bump covered when swimming. Available from sizes 8-24, we personally love the bold red shade, but it's also available in black too.

M&S baby-friendly toiletry buys

Add an extra special treat to your baby's bedtime routine with this little kit from thisworks. Designed to be used during and after bath time, each product is designed to lull baby into peaceful sleep. Made using lavender, camomile and lemon balm extract, this set includes a pillow mist, gentle wash, massage oil and sleep balm.

Not just for bumps, this thick stretch mark cream is packed with nourishing ingredients like horsetail leaf extract and ylang ylang oil to help reduce the appearance of stretch marks, whatever their cause.

M&S nursery buys

With a choice of a bounce motion or a vibrate setting, the bouncer also mimics mum's heartbeat to help baby relax and drift off. It also features a three point harness and non-slip feet for safety to keep your little one secure. The toy bar can also be attached or removed to create added entertainment.

We love this neutral and modern bedside crib, ideal for those early months when you need to sleep close to baby. What's more, the bassinet is fully removable so you can move freely around the home for daytime naps. With an adjustable side with auto-return option, it's a breeze to lift baby in and out for night feeds and those special morning cuddles.

If you're looking for a bit of extra support during tummy time, this roll is ideal for safely helping them start to spend time on their tummy. The fun chime, crinkle, baby safe mirror and rattle on this roll make tummy time even more exciting, and we love that this also includes a star teether to soothe teething gums.

What M&S baby deals are there?

As well as joining the Parent Hood rewards scheme, there are always good baby deals to take advantage of at M&S. You can currently get 3 for 2 on many baby clothes ranges including comfy t-shirts, hoodies, leggings, jumpers and more that are ideal for daily wear.

They also apply fantastic discounts to selected lines, so you can always pick up a good deal on baby clothes and more. You can find these offers under 'baby sale' on the M&S website.
