Congrats MomD and welcome!
family...@gmail.com
Have you grabbed all of the things you will need when you bring baby
home? or will you have to run out and grab a few more things before
you arrive @ home?
I remember with my first baby I ended up with a ton of things I
thought I needed and didn't ... and was lacking a few things I really
needed that I had no idea would be so handy before having a baby.
I found out a few weeks ago I am going to be a grandma for the first
time - She is due Christmas day, so this should be fun! I find myself
now dropping her motherly wisdom tidbits as I think of them ... Things
I hope she finds helpful once baby arrives and even through the
pregnancy. Things no one thought to tell me when I was young and
pregnant... and I wish I had known.
Be sure to pop into the review center - in the infant section - and
check out all of the great items you will find there. Here is a link
(copy into your browser address bar) http://www.familyreview.org/reviews/infants/
I believe there are 12 pages of items in there and some of them are
such a Godsend. The sleepsacks (summer lines are available so they
are not hot) are miracles and I love them - swaddling blankets are a
must for a fussy baby (and all babies love them and sleep better with
them) - the Babysense V movement monitor can give you a lot more peace
of mind - If you plan to co-sleep at all please consider a snuggle
nest or something similar to protect baby - and a nice sling such as
the peanut shell shown in there are very helpful with a wee one.
There are a ton more goodies in there but those items I think every
mother should have when baby comes home.

Not trying to sell you anything, truly just wanting to congratulate
and welcome you, but wanted to pass that info along too, as I think it
will be of help to you.
Do you feel all prepared? Have any questions for the moms on this
list that maybe we can answer for you? I think most of the questions
come as you face new things with a new baby but if you have any
questions we can possibly help with - let us know!
