Thread: Totebag Question

    Totebag Question

    Hi All,

    Thank you so much for giving my husband and I a place to turn as we wait for our little one to come. This is a wonderful website and cause and we are so appreciative.

    We were wondering if there was a totebag headed our way before the delivery or if we should expect it after.

    Also, my mom is organizing a CDH baby shower for August for all of the things needed for the bags. Is there a specific address we should plan to send to?

    Thanks again!
    Sandy Coombs

    Welcome Sandy! I will be thinking about you and your little one! I know the waiting is very hard! What a wonderful idea to do a totebag shower! I am not sure of the address but I know Dawn or Tracy will let you know!

    The address can be found by clicking the "about us" link at the top of the website. Then scroll down and click on "contact us"

    A totebag shower is a great idea! I am hosting a member picnic in May in Pennsylvania and we collect items for the totebags too.

    Thank you all for the info! We signed up back in November and have not received the bag at this point. I checked my profile, and it lists 1089 as the zip but we are at 01089. I attempted to change it but it went right back to 1089.

    Sandy, I will leave a message for Dawn and see where the status of the bag is.
