Not a preemie or twin mom, but I had a little one in the NICU as well as complications myself. Help with housecleaning would have been amazing. I wish someone had done that for me! And I distinctly remember my first non-hospital meal after birth. It was a hamburger and it tasted like heaven. Seriously. It felt so good to go somewhere for 30min and eat like a normal person before going back to the hospital. Find out what restaurants and stores are nearby the hospital. Gift cards for mom to get pampered too. I felt and looked like crap while my son was in the hospital and somehow that made everything that much harder to deal with.

I have an unusual name (Brenna) that isn't too far off names that were popular when I was born (Brenda, Brianna). I loved being the only one with that name, even if I had to correct people often (I introduce myself as Brenna, no D, no I). In 27 years, I've only met 3 other Brennas. My son's name follows that trend, unusual (Kellen) while still easy to prounounce and spell and similar to 'trendy' names at the time. I actually don't love his name, but his father was adamant about it. My 'girl' name (for when I have more kids) is Ara- pronounced Air-rha. It's my great, great-grandmother's name and has additional personal history attached to it. It sounds similar to all the Ava's, Emma's, Ella's out there, but is just different enough to avoid being one of 5 in her class.

What about a gravel pit? Sounds funny I know, but my 28mo son LOVES his "quarry" (we filled a cheap baby pool with a bag of pea gravel). It's much, much easier to clean up than sand but he can still dig and fill his trucks up with it. He'll play for an hour all by himself with his dump trucks and rocks. Animals leave it alone too. I also love the concrete squares idea and the playhouse idea! For the ladder, is there a way to switch it out for steps with a gentler slope? When K was 19mo, he was all about climbing things and loved stairs. How To Utilize This Space for 19-Month Olds Good Questions Flag this comment	6/24/11 4:30 PM
