Decent on burp rags, but we have a ton of blankets/quilts/receiving blankets we can also use. Not a lot of bibs and ok on clothes. Won't know for sure on that one till we know how big baby is. Laundry doesn't bother me much, specially since I plan to cloth diaper anyway, or at least see how we like it.<BR/><BR/>I got some help from the guild on Tue. night but not enough to make the biggest event that really needs to happen (3 of about 10 shifts over two days covered). So I get to plead for more help over email. They know it won't happen, I played the bed rest card, the pregnancy card and the "it's two weeks from my due date" card. I did get help with the driving the quilt around which is something at least.Lisa Chttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05943069442131689732noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5242228549901478168.post-54867789585145253682009-02-26T21:34:00.000-08:002009-02-26T21:34:00.000-08:00Let me know how you came out on the shower.

I have some clothes to send you and then it is up to you how many other items (burp rags, blankets, newborn bibs, hooded towels) you think you might want. A lot of what you need depends on how much you are willing to do laundry. With babies the laundry is not just the clothes, but also the "accessories" such as the burp rags, blankets, etc.Susan Zhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13854814816883479745noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5242228549901478168.post-27958136880418005002009-02-25T17:19:00.000-08:002009-02-25T17:19:00.000-08:00Definitly play the sympathy card.

You almost need to give them the ultimatum - "If you don't step up, it's not going to happen because I will be on bedrest or caring for a newborn." Don't try to do it all yourself, you just can't, especially now.Ann in NJhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08867456693546188505noreply@blogger.com
