Random advice from a second time mom

WaitingOnNo2

So, my one piece of advice as a second time mom is that if you're having a baby in the spring (March), don't just get short sleeved onesies.  After you have a baby you usually get the sweats from hormones.  That meant I kept my house really cool, even in July when my DS was born.  I didn't have a single long-sleeved outfit and ended up having to send someone out to buy them.

I thought I'd share in case this helps anyone.

I really liked the one-piece footie sleepers and DS#1 was born in March in Texas.

ugh the night sweats, I remember waking up in the hospital the night after DS was born and I was DRIPPING wet...I had no idea at the time it was from the hormones, thanks for reminding us!

Yup, this, but it was every night for over a week at right around 10pm.  I'm not a big sweater normally, so it freaked me out the first few times to wake up dripping in sweat head to toe.  I finally just got used to it and expected it.  LOL I always knew when it was 10pm.  Oh the memories I wish I didn't have to relive each time....
