I just wore a moby (cheap at a consignment store! I've never used them much after my kids were 12 or 15 lbs, but I really liked it for the newborn age/size) with no shirt underneath (or maybe a stretched out nursing tank to help manage leaking) and my flannel pajama shirt over top. <br /><br />Best of luck picking a name. Such a hard job! We changed our daughter's (middle name) less than 24 hours before her baby naming. I like Kate's suggestion, but I might be biased... ;-)Reneehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16729968078912681515noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20642800.post-17706935277138350442013-03-29T00:08:05.613-04:002013-03-29T00:08:05.613-04:00I just wanted to say congratulations and I'm l...I just wanted to say congratulations and I'm looking forward to hearing her name and birth story! julim888https://www.blogger.com/profile/17890319005694804114noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20642800.post-32537140070896692802013-03-28T23:26:16.172-04:002013-03-28T23:26:16.172-04:00Renee?
