49 days left 😬 anything else I need to do?!

Question

33 weeks pregnant, he’s apparently measuring big (5lb2oz on Wednesday!) and I’m measuring a week ahead so I’m hoping he comes around April 1st instead of 8th as I just want to meet him ASAP!!!

Packed my hospital bag, got his bedside cot set up, pram is ordered and I’ve filled his drawers with newly washed newborn and 0-3 month baby clothes!!! Anything else I need to do girlies before his arrival?! Xx

Answer

Do some things YOU really want to do. Read that book, binge that TV show, lay around and do nothing for an afternoon. Not saying you won't be able to bake time for that stuff later but it'll be awhile before you'll want to so enjoy it now!

Answer

Prep freezer meals! The last thing anyone wants to do with a newborn is cook- buy pre made frozen food or cook casseroles and soups and freeze them now for easy meals :)

Answer

I probably wouldn't do this quite yet, but in a few weeks you'll want to get the car seat installed and maybe have the installation checked - I think fire stations do it?

Answer

Oh ya freeze some pads with witch hazels soak them well. It will help with pain management. Even if you have a c-section, you can apply over your cut.

Answer

Test out your breast pump if you got one.
Practice making a bottle if you have to formula feed.
If you don’t have a breast shield, I highly recommended getting one or 2 for just Incase.
