I won't be using blankets in the crib, but I will have some of those zip up sleep sacks.

Good: Child preparedness classes are booked.
Bad: My blood sugar is all over the map again today, and I just responded to my father-in-law's post about guns on facebook, this will not end well.

sj, my babies usually slept in onesies wrapped in a baby blanket burrito. Bev is right, trust your wee one to tell you what she wants. You'll quickly get down a rhythm, what to try first when you hear her cry: dirty diaper? too warm or too cold? hungry? tired? Before you know it, you will just know what each particular cry means.

Traditionally one feels completely unprepared when you arrive back at home from the hospital with a new baby: "Why did they let us leave with a baby? We've never done this before!"

From what I've heard, if you felt prepared, you'd be deluding yourself.

So, are you saying it's too early for me to feel this unprepared?
In less panicked news our friend K will be putting the dragon decals up in the nursery on Saturday! Both grandmothers to be are perplexed about why we're putting up dragons in a baby girl's room.

I'm saying you are exactly the right amount of unprepared.

Feeling unprepared comes with the territory. You're doing fine.
