I bought special detergent for my 1 week old baby’s clothes so it’s sensitive on her skin, but I couldn’t find the fabric softener that I used when I had my first baby (or any fabric softener for newborn clothes at all), so I’m wondering if it’s ok to use the "Snuggle" dryer sheets or if I shouldn’t use anything at all. Experienced moms, please give me the 411. 10 pts for whoever makes the most sense.

Here’s what I have so far on my registry:

BumGenius Flip Day Pack Cloth Diaper Set (qty. 4) comes with 2 covers and 6 inserts
Organic Cotton Wipes (20)
Burp Cloth Diapers (8)
Diaper Liners (cloth) (20)
Washable prefold diapers (12)–to use as burp cloths or regular diapers as needed
Flushable biodegradable diaper liners–are these even necessary?

My other question is, what do you think I’ll need for nighttime diapering? I was thinking I would just use the Flip cover with a prefold and extra insert…or I’d figure out what works best when baby comes. Thanks for the advice CD-ing moms!

what shoe size does a newborn baby wear?

I have done all type of research and now i am seeking the advice from experienced moms. I am having a hard time buying sandals for my baby that will be born in July. I have seen some 0′s but my mom seems to think that even that will be too big at birth. What size should i look into and are there any good sites or stores that sell cute sandals for newborn girls?

I’m just wondering how many I’ll need to buy assuming that I won’t use disposable training pants except for outings. Also, to any moms out there who know—how long was your kid wearing training pants before switching to regular underwear? I’ve heard boys are slower with potty training than girls. Thanks in advance!

Do you have any diapers, Enfamil Lipil formula, baby wipes, or baby boy clothing that you no longer need?

I had an unexpected rapid-growing ovarian tumor and three surgeries and have had lots of medical problems within the last year which caused severe financial difficulties. We do not qualify for WIC (we have to be 100-185% below poverty in our state), I have to formula-feed for medical reasons, and I do not have family to help me.

Money is extremely tight right now, I am giving birth to a baby boy in November, and we can use all the help we can get. We still need many items for our little one. I would be more than happy to send you some coupons or other items that I have today. Please let me know at shamrocklove@yahoo.com.

Thank you with all of my heart. <3

P.S. I have joined freecycle.org and craigslist.org but there are many wanted items for similar things in our area.

If you can sincerely help, please e-mail me. Thank you <3
EM, I deleted it because I was harassed by another member. I pray to God that you are never in the same situation. You have no idea what I have been through. Please leave me alone and go bother someone else.
If there are any moms out there who can sincerely help, please e-mail me. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.

I’ve been getting ready for my little one to arrive at the end of June. We’ve got a ton of baby stuff, and this weekend I was washing it and putting it away. I’ve already lost a baby sock. LoL!

I was wondering if any Moms had a suggestion on how to keep from losing the little socks in the washer/dryer.

Do you have any diapers, Enfamil Lipil formula or checks, baby boy clothing, a monitor, sterilizer, or other baby items that you no longer need?

I had an ovarian tumor and three surgeries and have had lots of medical problems within the last year which has caused severe financial difficulties. We do not qualify for WIC, I have to formula-feed for medical reasons, and I don’t have family to help me.

Money is extremely tight right now, I am giving birth to a baby boy in 9 weeks, and we can use all the help we can get. We don’t have anything for our baby. Once we get back on our feet, I could send you any coupons or kids items that I come across if you want. Please let me know at mrssoldier33@yahoo.com.

Thank you with all of my heart. <3

P.S. I have joined freecycle.org and but haven’t received any responses yet. I also tried craigslist.org but there are not any free items in my area (just lots of wanted).
If there are any moms or dads out there that are in a position to sincerely help, I would appreciate it more than you realize. Once we get things back in order, I can send you any coupons or items I come across for your children in return. Thank you <3 <3

Autumnishere, I had the tumor before we got married and therefore was not covered under my husband’s insurance. Most insurance companies would not cover me and the one that did charged me 00 a month. You’ve made me feel even lower by having to ask for help. Despite your true ignorance, I still hope that someday you never have to experience this. Good luck to you.
If there are any moms or dads out there that are in a position were they can sincerely help, I would appreciate it more than you know. Once we get back on our feet, we can send you any coupons or kids items we come across if you need them.
