    Yep, it's pretty much just a wrap! The hospital ones are usually the thick cotton knit ones with stripes.

    ...I just had my 2nd child and only found out when he was a few days old that the wraps/muslins are called 'bunny rugs'.

    If you dont know, you dont know. I dont think your a goose.

    Hi Belle,

    You sound as confused as me. I was looking at my hospital list just the other day and the amount of stuff the hospital expects you to bring is ridiculuous. The terminology is also very confusing. Whats wrong with saying "blanket".
