 Cleaning out the closet and have a box of
 maternity'esque clothes --- some traditional mat
 clothes like jeans and pants; others are giant
 t-shirts. I'm 5'3" and starting at around 135; ended
 around 175. Also have a few boxes of Earl Grey decaf,
 a few bottles of folic acid, and a number of SNS
 bottles.Live in the Castro. Free -- if you take the
 clothes would love to see you make a $25 (or greater)
 donation to the children's charity of your
 choice.Thanks!Athena

 Hey Chica - I feel your pain. My oldest was 2 3/4 when
 the twins were born. Personally, I'd have less night
 nanny time time and more mommy's helper during the day.
 If you're breastfeeding or pumping, you'll be up every
 2 - 3 hours either way, so it's nice to get a nap in
 during the day. The babies tend to go back to sleep
 pretty quickly at night but are a handful during the
 day (at least that was my experience). I didn't have
 one a night nanny at all but I did have family in town
 for about a month - I'd beg any dear friend or family
 member to come visit if you can. You can get away with
 $15 - 20 / hour during the day for mommy's helper who
 can do the same things as a night nurse for 1/2 the
 price. One of the best decisions I made was to put my
 oldest in school as soon as she turned 2 as being home
 alone with 3 kids under 3 is chaos. Some preschools
 start at 2 and have year-round admission (we started
 Montessori House of Children at 2). I think LadyBug
 starts at 2 as well. And there are several others.
 Pick-up and drop off are kind of nutty (esp. at our
 school which has stairs), but it's worth it to be able
 to "focus" on babies.

 We paid $32/hour & our doula did everything mentioned
 above- feeding the twins (I opted not to help her feed
 but to pump instead
