As some of you know oxsarahxo sadly lost her baby girl Jessica Charlotte Reay hours after giving birth. We are arranging a star to be named after Jessica and a lantern for her resting place from all of us. We also thought it would be nice to make a contribution to Sarah & Matt so they can use it towards flower arrangements, head stone or resting place arrangements. If you would like to contibute please PM me for details.

I'm Currently Feeling:  |  Is it worth getting a rocking moses basket stand?
Do they have any benefits or are they pretty pointless? It's just, people are asking me about things they can get me and I have everything.. |

I'm Currently Feeling: | I have both a rocking one and a non rocking one. i don't think i will use my rocking one for fear of accidentally knocking it over.
At least the non-rocking one is more sturdy! Just my opinion.

I'm Currently Feeling:  | My bassinet rocks. I'm assuming it will be handy and calming for the baby-- but I don't know first hand quite yet. Hopefully I'll be able to tell you soon! lol |

| I think it will be more useful when you are half asleep and the baby is waking up, but not needing to be fed. That way you can just reach your arm out and rock her back to sleep, and hopefully not have to fully wake up with her. If other people want to buy it for you, I say, let them! |

I'm Currently Feeling:  | My mum and dad advised us not to get one, but we did anyway.
Our carpet is so thick that it doesn't rock anyway though. So it doesn't matter lol.
It's nice, but I can imagine it'd get a bit annoying.
