[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Gosh- they are acting like they are the first parents to have a baby.

I agree with pp’s above- meal trains should be for those who are ill or injured- not new parents of a newborn baby!!!

My DH and I brought home preemie twins from the hospital with no help for meals.  You know what we ate?  Lots and lots of Mac and cheese frozen dinners and peanut butter and jelly sandwiches.   You find a way to survive.

Why did you do that?  Do you really think that’s the best diet for a nursing mom of twins?  Why not just ask people for a little help?  [/quote]

Why do millenials need help?

Their mothers didn't. Neither did their grandmothers. And their husbands weren't helpful. Dads these days should know how to cook and clean. [/quote]

They had help. I'm the mom of a little one, but also have a millenial ds and some gen-z kids. So with my older kids, it was before most folks had the internet at home. And no smartphones. The 'meal train' was a paper signup on the bulletin board at church, or preschool, or whereever. But it existed.

I'm happy to help new moms with a meal-and I'm grateful for those who helped me. I will say though...I've never seen any bizarre requests like the one in OP's post! I wouldn't know what to give those people-a box of air??? lol[/quote]
