We went out to celebrate the birth of all the babies from our Rockyview Hospital prenatal classes last night. In total there were 8 babies present (out of 11). In total there were 13 couples in our prenatal classes so 11 have kept in touch to make a pretty good network of new-baby families.
One of the women came up with a baby-sitting co-op idea. It sounds like it will work as we all live in the SW and several of us live within 10 minute drives of each other. It will work like this: if we need someone to babysit Chance, we can call Mommy A who lives near our neighborhood. We would then have a 2-hour debt to the co-op. Later on, Mommy B needs a babysitter for 2 hours, and calls us to babysit - then our debt to the co-op is paid. We will have to see how it goes, but already this means that my dentist dilemma could be solved: the first dentist appointment on a Saturday I can get is April 21. With the co-op, I could arrange for a weekday dentist appointment within a month.
