Parenting

I have 10 days left before I have a baby and I feel like I'm forgetting to do something....

I feel like I'm forgetting to do something before the baby comes. I've packed the baby's bag, and started packing mine (as much as I can so far) and I will pack DS's bag later this week. The carseat base is installed in both cars, clothes, blankets, pacifiers, and bottles are all washed and ready. Anything I'm forgetting?

  • Do you have some diapers?  You are a repeat c-section as well right?  When is yours June 30th?  Mine is Juen 29th. 

    Are you getting excited?

  • Oh yeah, I do have quite a stash of diapers going as well as formula. Wink Yep, I'm a C/S on the 30th. I'm actually getting kinda nervous. I'm excited to meet our newest addition to our family, but at the same time DS1 isn't very thrilled about being a big brother so that makes me nervous. LOL I keep dreaming about the baby, though.... I can't wait to hold him!

  • You have way more ready than I do! :) The carseat is still downstairs, I'm not putting it in until the night before probably. It only takes a few minutes to install, and that'll give DH something to do while I am in the hospital. OH- do you have batteries for your swing and stuff? I had to get some the other day, we didn't have the right size.

    We always have tons of batteries on hand for all the toys and whatnot. But, my swing is still in the basement with drywall dust all over it. LOL I do have the bouncer in the baby's room ready to go. I figure it'll be a little bit until I use the swing and we don't really have the room to just have it sitting upstairs forever, so we'll bring it up after the baby is here and we're ready to use it.

  • Oh ok, DS1 was a total "swing baby" he was in it from day 1, and slept in it some nights-he just always wanted to be moving.
  • Did you pack your camera and cell phone charger? Also baby wipes? I hate trying to wipe those first few sticky poops off with the towels the hospital gives you. I have my csec on wed--and we went crazy today trying to get everything done. I know im forgetting something!!! Good luck :)
