New research reveals that parents of newborns drive the equivalent of John O'Groats to Land's End one and a half times a year – spending an average of £547 on petrol – to get their newborns to sleep.

Mothercare, the UK's leading parenting and baby specialist, polled over 1,000 parents to understand the driving habits of new parents.
