 The new format of the sale, while requiring way less
 volunteers from the group and making more money for
 sellers, ends up costing the club a lot of money. In
 order to subsidize the sale this fall, we're going to
 hold a raffle.This is where you come in... we need your
 donations to make the raffle a success!- Do you have
 49er season tickets and are willing to give up one
 game?- Do you own a small business and have something
 to offer (you will get advertising for your business)?-
 Could you donate babysitting or event planning
 services?Then we NEED you!!!Please e-mail me directly
 at vicepresident at sfpom.org by Thursday 10/6 with your
 info and donation.Thanks,Michelle Foss

2. Cry It Out
--------------------------------------------------------
carrieplaskett - 10/3/2011 10:13 pm

 We are starting to get to the point where we are "sleep
 training" our 4.5 month old twin boys. How is this
 "CIO" thing suppose to work with TWO babies???? One
 down, two down. One screams, two screams?! This is all
 a little bit frightening. I have been pretty successful
 putting them to bed and letting them self sooth with
 limited crying. I am just anticipating the middle of
 the night wakings and how it is going to work out
 logistically. There are times when they can ignore each
 other, but they can also wake each other up. Any
 suggestions or thoughts would be appreciated.

 car, but I own one almost exactly like it (tan

 If I had choice, I would move while pregnant. If you
 can hire helpers, you can supervise them without
 distraction. With babies I was busy 24/7.

 I moved while I was pregnant with my twins which was
 totally manageable. I had a great pregnancy until
 suddenly at 35 weeks when I had to be induced. Although
 I live really close to the hospital, I would have had
 plenty of time to get their. However, after 30 weeks I
 had frequent routine trips to the doctor which you
 would have to consider if you were driving a longer
 distance. Also, they boys stayed in NICU for just over
 a week. The thought of a move during those first couple
 months would seem impossible to me. The boys are now
 4.5 months and the thought of a move at this point
 would seem more manageable. So I guess my suggestion
 would be to move when pregnant or wait until they are a
 couple months old. Maybe read some of the discussions
 that have been posted about the routine/issues with
 newborn twins. But, whenever the move happens, I'm sure
 you can make it work!

 Thank you so much for all your responses. It really
 helped me to make my decision. I think we'll move
 before the babies are born. Thanks again!
