baby stuff needed
Aug. 19th, 2008 11:20 amNo, not for me, don't be silly. But my cousin in New York is going to have a baby very soon now, and she needs some things. She would much rather have pre-owned stuff: she says "i'd like to keep the stuff already created in circulation -- and i'd like to likewise pass it on when i'm done. i think this would be a lovely gift to my son: less pollution, less stuff, less clutter in the home and mind; more clean air, water, space, simplicity, time for mommies and daddies to love babies rather than working so hard to buy the stuff." So I thought I'd see if anyone here has anything on her list that they'd be willing to part with. I'd be happy to take care of shipping it to New York. Thanks!
* a good, solid moses basket
* a bouncy chair
* baby carriers -- especially the ones liked but outgrown
* a swing
* baby monitors -- (motion detector, sound, and visual all appreciated)
* white noise machines (2)
* diapers and diaper covers of any and every size and type
* those diabolical houdini swaddling blankets for (parental) dummies
* whatever you might think i will want or need but as a new mom-to-be haven't thought of yet
* pacifiers -- i'd be stoked to find some of the kind that shut when they drop
* a few panels of dark curtains and help to hang them
* a good book on diaperless babies/how to do E/C
* postpartum care supplies, herbs, oils, arnica, shepherd's purse tincture, lavender oil, witch hazel, etc.
* nursing supplies and offers of assistance with this lost art in the first weeks of my baby's life
* of lesser concern, but also of interest: a good electric breast pump, bottles, clothing
