Great game! 1.5 for me....which scared me at first, but it looks like a lot of us are in the low points boat...

1. Is your hospital bag packed?
nope, won't be until much closer. I just need a very few things though, from previous experience.

2. Is your nursery complete?
not making one. Baby will be in my room for 1st 6 mo, per AAP rec, and we are hoping to sell in about that time frame.

3. Have you washed any baby clothes?
nope. Haven't even gotten Sam's old unisex clothes out yet. Probably after we get back from the beach mid August I'll start on that.

4A. If breastfeeding, have you purchased nursing clothing/bras?
Nope. Bought Lanolin yeterday b/c I wanted to use it now, though. Didn't use any nursing tops last time, and bras will be bought once milk is in.

4B. If formula, are you stocked up on formula and bottles?

5. Do you have a stash of diapers ready (disposable or cloth)?
Nope.

6A. FTM's: Have you had your shower?

6B. 2nd Time + Mommas: + 1 for you, just 'cause.

7A. FTM's: Have you taken a birthing class?

7B. 2nd Time + Mommas: + 1 for you.

8. Have you started a savings account for this child?
Can't make an account for the baby specifically until it is here and has a SSN. We will start baby out with a bulk deposit from our savings though, same as we did Sam.

9. Have you named your baby?
Yes, depending on the sex.

10. Is your carseat installed in your car? (2 points for this one, you overacheiver, you.)
Nope. Going to do it after we come back from vacation sometime, probably late August.

...and go!

(P.S. This isn't to make anyone feel bad, I just am really curious to see where everyone is)

2 pts, and those are just b/c I'm a second timer. LOL.

Instead of playing this game, I think I'm going to go weep softly in a corner somewhere...

Haha...keep that chin up, dear. Hey, looks like you've named the kid, POINT FOR YOU!
Heh! True, and I was a good 5 years ahead on that one (seriously, Monsieur and I had all our kids named before we were even engaged).

Us too!!! Stick out tongue I know it's the whole "don't count your chickens..." stuff, but we've had a boy name and a girl name picked out forEVER
