DH is 7 months-old, legally, but since she was a preemie, she is only 5-month old in adjusted age, so I hope I qualify to participate :)

Moineau 01/ 5/2012 #

Ooops; I meant DD of course :)

flugella 01/ 6/2012 #

Aww, my DD is 8 months! Gutted I can't participate!

NorthernNeedles 01/ 6/2012 #

@Moineau age adjusted is fine. My friends daughter was born at 25 weeks and is thriving, so I understand the age adjustment.

@flugella as my own pregnancy / baby progresses, I will host more of these for older babies and moms, and will be sure to let you know. Emily.

What is DD by the way?

Lifeisart86 01/ 7/2012 #

I'm pregnant with my second, my son is five. Can I still participate?

flugella 01/ 8/2012 #

DD is Dear Daughter xxx

Would you mind if I hosted this swap for US only? I want to do this but I can't afford to send out of country and I know others who cant too. I would give you credit for creating the original swap :)

This swap is for moms to be who are expecting their first child AND for brand new moms with a baby under 6 months of age.

If your profile doesn't indicate you are one of the above, I will drop you from this swap.

Thanks! Emily

Does "treat" have to mean food or can it be a suprise, as long as its under $5?

naiexoxo 01/11/2012 #

lilmissthrifty : :) Its is so much fun at 4 months..lots of changes. fun and action just began :)

NorthernNeedles 01/14/2012 #

treat just means a surprise for Mom. Something you think she would like.
