When my first grandchild was born my daughter and son-in-law were so busy rotating in and out of sleep for feedings, changing diapers, making formula, doing laundry and each trying to work that they couldn't manage anything else. The baby was 3 months old before that wild eyed look left my daughters face and became a smiling face. They will love the quilt and when their lives settle they will have time to let you know. If you are concerned about their health give them a call and let them know. Maybe they need someone to spend time with the baby while they take a nap.
