We've been matched with an 8 month old baby boy who is coming home in a few weeks.
We've got spreadsheets about spreadsheets of the stuff we need to get, but would love to hear about the first few weeks when your little one comes home. Obviously we will be continuing the routine his foster carers have established, but how long was it until you introduced him to family etc? Any top tips much appreciated (already batch cooking - will be eating Bolognese for the next 3 months!).
Also tips on how to not burst into tears when buying baby stuff in shops welcome. It's been a long old journey to this point...for some reason a hooded towel set me off this weekend .
