I volunteered with NIN several years ago and we made snakes for preemies to be used in the isolette. Does anyone know how to make these? I did not see a pattern or instructions. I have a friend who just gave birth to twins less than 3 pounds each. I am just trying to help them out some.
Thanks
Hi! I've been trying to find a pattern for a knitted baby sweater (pullover) using size 6 needles. Any ideas? Thanks, your help is greatly appreciated!
Have you tried looking at www.knittingpatterncentral.com ? They have tons and tons of free patterns there. just go to the free pattern directory on the left side, then click on baby, then baby clothes. Hope this helps!
I would love to get my State involved in New Born's in Need!! We're are a great state with hundreds of people that would be more then happy to help any way they can. Any suggestions in starting a Chapter here?
At a past convention, Home Office brought pre paid envelopes to mail back printer cartridges and the profits went for NIN funds. Are those envelope still available? If so, how does a person get some?
I recently had twins in Muskegon MI at the Mercy Special Delivery Birth Center. They were born at 34 1/2 weeks. They were premature, but very healthy babies!!! One of the nurses there gave us 2 of the "gift bags." I just wanted to say THANK YOU for all of the wonderful people who donate thier time to help out people like that. Its the sweetest thing!! It makes me smile to think that someone did that for me and my babies!! So Thank you to all of the volunteers!!
The ADA (11/9/06) sent an e-gram to dentists warning against infant formula being mixed with fluoridated water. Parents are not getting this message!
Please check Dr. Paul Connett's website www.fluoridealert.org and watch the video "Professional Perspectives" on fluoridation for more information on this issue.
Has everyone turned in their favorite recipes yet? I've been involved
in school fundraiser cookbooks and they make nice books for gifts
as well as earn money for a great cause.
