[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I've never heard of Meal Train. Is that an informal thing that you're doing with other neighbors/church members/friends or how exactly does this work?[/quote] I understand the meal train thing for those going through an unexpected sickness, injury, bereavement, etc. but really don't understand this for newborns. The baby is not something that came out of nowhere and mom/dad should of stocked of the fridge/freezer ahead of time. [/quote] Often parents don't know ahead of time how hard it wil be to care for a newborn, especially if you are breastfeeding and the baby is having trouble, or the baby has colic, etc.[/quote] Agreed. I had a baby born 2 weeks early who was in the NICU and I had a very difficult c-section. My newborn was colicky, had jaundice, weight gain issues, was tongued tied and had problems nursing. I appreciated anything that was brought by friends and family. I've had friends on bed rest who couldn't stock their freezers. Besides its just a nice thing to do, complications or not. [/quote]
