I want to give birth again. (Really, the delivery is what gets me emotional.) I never thought I would say THAT!!<br>Congratulations to Jen and Ryan. I love big babies. I had one. They seem a bit easier than smaller babies once you get past the blood sugar problems.<br><br>I would definitely "do again" (and there are some repeats):<br>1.Baby Bjorn. I couldn't have cooked or cleaned or gone on walks or blogged without it!<br>2. a LOT of burp cloths and bibs (and I like them stylish too.)<br>3. Lanisol nipple cream. It made a huge difference. I forgot how SORE I was!<br>4. a lot of bundling blankets. That was the only way Cole every slept...and with newborns, they get soiled a lot. <br>5. small crib pads underneath the newborn (and on top of the sheets) during nap/bed time. It saves changing the sheets several times a day.<br>6. plenty of extra sheets.<br>7. a really great crib. I love mine.<br>8. all organic baby food and formula. <br>9. binkies. <br>10. a "recovering from pregnancy" (small) wardrobe. So you still feel good in nice clothes.<br><br>Things I didn't do the first time, but would definitely do the next time:<br>1. comfortable clothes for the newborn! (I LOVE Babystyle.)<br>2. all wooden or quality cloth toys. I'm not into plastic anymore.<br>3. a quality baby bouncer. they have some great designs out right now. I always wanted the Bjorn brand..<br>4.a baby bathtub. <br>5. a Moses basket. (we didn't need it in our last house.)kellihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08949053364898073438noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2094072069524784229.post-11873818974857150892007-03-27T02:14:00.000-07:002007-03-27T02:14:00.000-07:00Fun post.

Good list, Missy.<br><br>Izzy barely wore any real "outfits" in the first few months. It was summer so the footless one-pieces were perfect (is that what they are called? not sure).<br><br>New clothes - for sure. I think comfy lounge clothes would be perfect. Some nice new yoga pants, fitted tees. I'm definitely doing that next time. I couldn't fit into my clothes for awhile, but needed something new!<br><br>I was so glad I had a manual breastpump too. That really saved me when Izzy wasn't nursing very well in the beginning.<br><br>Nipple cream for the beginning of breastfeeding. Oh, the pain.<br><br>Lansinoh breast pads - Best ever. No leakage here.<br><br>Meggan, how many months have you been able to use the bobby? I never had a bobby, but I'm hearing such good things about them. I'm thinking next time around it will be a nice addition. <br><br>So excited about baby Lilly!Lindseyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18230826570810114209noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2094072069524784229.post-84709463665910268692007-03-26T22:00:00.000-07:002007-03-26T22:00:00.000-07:00Miss, perfect timing for this post. You are right...Miss, perfect timing for this post. You are right on for all of them. The only other thing I would add is maybe a pre-stocked fridge with easy and healthy dinners that can be made by the husband.<br><br>I also have to say that I am really enjoying my boppy. I didn't have it with the girls, so maybe that's why I appreciate it more.Megganhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16679880181834403014noreply@blogger.com
