Moms are so helpful. That must be really hard for your friend. I see a lot of NICU babies and parents. Those babies are real fighters. That sounds awesome! Moms are so helpful.

I am so jealous they work out for you! I bought some washable ones because I was tired of constantly buying and then filling landfills with the disposable ones, but the first time my daughter cried, my shirt was soaked! Maybe I should try making my own and can just make them a little thicker. I did read one place that if you make them and use fleece for the outside back layer (closest to your bra) that it is water resistent and won't show leaks. I might give that a try. As an aside, I really admire all that you are doing to frugally raise your baby. I wish I would have found your blog before my baby was born (she is 10 weeks old) because I am discovering that she doesn't need to be that expensive and there are a lot of baby items that are convenient, but not necessary and that she will outgrow soon!
