Ready for baby?

Question

So I'm curious when all you ladies plan to be 100% ready for Baby? Ill be 33 weeks tomorrow and I'm starting to obsess. I really want to put the stroller together, put the car seat in, set up the bassinet, pack my hospital bag, etc... But I feel like its way too early. I've bought everything (except some things that I need for my hospital bag), I just don't know when an appropriate time to be really ready is.

Answer

There should be an option for "never". ;)

Seriously, I know we don't have every little piece of gear. We're OK with this, even though we're first time parents. We've got the essentials: car seat, diapers, a few clothes.

We'll get a lot of the other stuff after baby is born, when we know what's really necessary and what our routine is, etc. We're pretty minimalist so just want to avoid buying a bunch of stuff that's only going to end up not working out.

Answer

Answer

I'm 32 weeks today and I have everything completely set up and ready to go, bags packed. I want everything to be ready just in case we go early. The only thing that's left to do is put the car seat in the car!

Answer

I'm 99% ready at 35+3 all I have to do is clean the van and install the base to the car seat

Answer

I don't see why you should wait if you don't want to! I've been wanting to set everything up since I found out I was pregnant. I'm 35 weeks and we still don't have a stroller/car seat yet, so I'm ready for her to come mentally but I guess not realistically lol.

Answer

Answer

I've been banned from buying anything until after my baby shower! I'll be ready for baby in the few days after that, because whatever I don't get as a gift I'll go out and buy

Answer

I think it's the perfect time to set up the stuff.

Answer

We have done things in stages, my oldest is two and the middle child (he is still the baby for right now) just turned 1 in January so when we got the stroller we will be using for all three of them we started using it right away to help them adjust. When we got her car seat, we put it in to adjust to it as well, we already have the crib and swing and stuff set up, they have gotten used to it now so we still have stuff to do but we get it down as we go

Answer

I'm 33 weeks tomorrow and have my big stuff done. Car seat will go in the jeep in another week or two.  Stroller, crib, glider, etc are already set up. I'm trying to wait for my baby shower on 02/20 before I buy anything else though.
