In 3 weeks I have to relocate about 7 1/2 hrs from where I live to Minneapolis. I'm a FTM and will be between 36 and 37 weeks. The plan is for baby to come between 39 and 40 weeks.

My husband will not be staying with me the whole time as he is self employed and we can't afford for him to not work for an extended period of time. My employer is going to let me work remotely so I don't have to start maternity leave early.

Is there anyone else going through something similar or have been through it in the past? If so what are you (or would you recommend) taking with you for yourself and baby?

Any advice or words of encouragement are much appreciated.
