what exactly is a bunny rug?

[belle75]

This a such a stupid question! I was just looking at the hospital list of stuff I need to buy and it asks for "6 bunny rugs". I have tentatively bought 3 flannel wraps and a cotton/jersey wrap. Do they qualify?

[~Trish~]

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

Thanks Trish! I feel like such a goose

...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.

LOL don't feel like a goose! No one but the hospitals really call them bunny rugs these days! Time for them to update their lists I think

Thanks girls. All this baby stuff is so confusing!

. The terminology is also very confusing. Whats wrong with saying "blanket".
