I went to the Dr yesterday and she thinks I'll be having a baby in the next couple of weeks (surprise!!!). It feels great to be at this point, it truly does. When I went on bed-rest at 22 weeks, 36-38 weeks seemed a lifetime away and now, suddenly, here we are!
As many of you know, this little one was a total surprise. We had not planned on another. In fact, last May we had a garage sale and sold our remaining baby items: high chairs, single strollers, swings, bouncies, etc. What we didn't sell went straight to the D.I. As a result, we are running short on certain newborn necessities. And while I could go buy brand new items, there are a few that are only used for a couple of weeks or months that I just can't bring myself to spend the $$$ on. So I was wondering if there is anybody in the vicinity of SL that might be willing to let me borrow some baby items? The most immediate need is a baby-swing and a bassinet. I'm also open to purchasing used items if you'd rather. If you've got something in your basement or garage that you think might work and your willing, let me know!!
I have a swing I would love to let you borrow. I also have co-sleeper that is great for tiny ones (it's like a mini pack and play).
I would also sell the bouncer back that we bought from you but Mackenzie broke the bottom off of it. She didn't believe us when we said she was too big for it.

Oh, you sweet little bug! I can't believe you are without all the crap babies need and/or want and/or you need and want. We've got a stroller you could use and a baby swing. I'd also check craigslist, both the baby and kids section, but also the free section, because I've seen bassinets at least on their, along with a variety of other baby stuff. Do you need formula? I actually got a few free samples of formula, but seeing as I never used it with Jonas, I would be highly surprised to use it with Cooper. Oh! And I found another of your blankets. I will try to get it to you ASAP...and let me know if any of the things I mentioned earlier would be helpful.
