| OK, I had no idea the "going home outfit" was meant to be special so have no recollection of what Hannah wore home. Hope it was something cute. All I remember is that I looked horrible! hehe |

Haha I am the same as you Nikki - just didn't want to be the first to admit it!!
I hated walking out of the hospital cause I had an excise to be fat when I walked in - but not out!! (in my eyes at the time) Oh and I think the epidural headache rained on my "parade".... *Hopes Arna never asks* ------------- http://www.snugglepie.com">

I think my american forum ladies were all for the "going home outfit" lol.. it did seem like a nice idea though and I still look at them from time to time and realise how much she's grown (still can't believe she was that small) ------------- http://lilypie.com">

I must admit I did not take any photos of kids coming home. Josh I was just glad to get to go home after he spent 5 days in Neo Natal (had jaundice very bad) and Brooke I wasn't in hospital that long just wanted to get home. That might be an idea for another post - howlong did people stay in hospital what is the norm. With this one I plan to stay a night as the maternity hospital here is so nice and I am so jealous of my friends who had their babies there as I had to go to New Plymouth ( half hour drive from here) with both of mine. This time told the midwife I'll start pushing and chain myself to the bed if they say I have to go there again - she laughed and liked my attitude - sure I would go if it was an emergency :-) ------------- Ann

Yes - Its elizabeth R,. Its a rest home with maternity attatched - very nice - you have your own ensuite with your own telly and double bed (although they are a bit soft for my liking - you also have a ranchslider that opens onto a deck. New Plymouth was just a boxed in room with a bed and enough room for baby - not cosy or anything. I have not been to the birthing bit of ER . If you need a c section you have to go to NP or an epidural or anything other than gas n air and pethadine and not a normal delivery you have to go to NP. They did try to close ER down the other year but us stratford ites (and surrounding districts) fought to keep it open - and they did. case now of use it or lose it. I would definatley have a baby there than NP ------------- Ann

hhhm we had the same with Paris, a cute little outfit and she was too long, so sent mike home to get one and he came back with a little sleepsuit, which was ok, but not great. oh well, she looked so cute all wrapped up in her carseat cuddly bag that i made her.
and ayja, i had brought a 2 piece suit so that if her body was long like paris's it wouldn't matter so she actually got to wear hers, lol, just looking now i realise she was a bit jaundice-yellow and ju-ju looking lolol, what a mean mummy i am. will load pics later ------------- Janine and her 2 cool chicks, Paris & Ayja

Posted this on the Due in July thread as well, but figure there can't be much harm in doubling up

Awww these little outfits are SO CUTE!! I love the pics of your wee newborns all bundled up in them... getting clucky here. I've been planning to have something really cute and really warm for our little girl to go home in, so I'm so glad to see I'm not the only one thinking like that. Thought I was a big geek for a while there! Every now and then I do wonder what if the scan was wrong though, and I end up taking a little boy home all bundled up in pink?!?!! ------------- Andie |

That day Zaara was sitting down and watching "Bear in the big blue house" and all of a sudden she was on her tummy....I picked her up and I knew she has done a poooo....so I take her to get her changed.....later I found out that sitting down and pooing is not a very good thing...it was all over her back and upfront and cloths/pants.....ewwwww!! After 20 odd wipes I finally got her clean...thank God I was just about to give her a bath!!!
