February 2014 Moms

Am I forgetting something??

Dont usually post, i do alot of lurking and reading.
Set for a repeat csection on 2/24.
I feel like there is SOOO much that I don't have ready yet, and just wanted to hear from other moms if im crazy or see if there's anything Im not thinking of...
I plan on breast feeding. Still have the pump, bottles, bags & pads from DS.
I have various sizes of diapers, clothes, wipes, pacifiers.
Socks & mittens. Hats. Blankets & burp cloths.
Car seat, swing, stroller, play pen bath tub.
Cradle (still being built.....), changing table/mat.
Diaper rash cream, vasoline, baby wash/shampoo/powder

I have the diaper bag packed... Diapers, wipes, 2-3 outfits, depending on length of stay & weather-im in Houston. One day its 70, the next its 34 :) got a swaddle blanket. Car seat is installed.
Need to pack my bag.... Still.

Im so sorry for the long post. I really appreciate any feedback!!

Re: Am I forgetting something??

  • You sound pretty set to me, but I'm also a major procrastinator... I haven't packed the hospital bag yet, and the car seat is sitting at the front door. I figure I'll install it when contractions kick in or my water breaks, lol. Ds will move to the back of the van and I feel bad, it's why I keep putting it off.

  • Lol i just wanted the car seat outta the house. We're moving to the east coast 3 weeks after this baby arrives so Im getting ancy with stuff just sitting around.
    The "nesting" that's going on this time is me packing up our house. Im no longer working and Dh is moving from his duty station on west coast to his new station on the east coast. So i have nothing better to do but pack up & ponder if im ready... So annoying haha
  • sounds like you're ready! oh wait! what about your own pillow and snacks and toiletries? I'm due the 25th and it feels so far away! Good luck with everything :)
  • No i do not have a boppy! I had two with DS.... No idea what i did with them :(
    I was only able to bf for 3 weeks with ds before i just dried up. It was odd. Labor, delivery & after birth with ds was all very difficult. Hoping its all smoother this time.
    I did get nursing bra's, tank tops & black cotton underwear yesterday though. So i think just some pajama/comfy clothes, toiletries & my pillow.... And I should be set for the hospital... I think lol
    Ahh and back DS bag for his stay with gramma. I feel like there is no time, yet plenty of time.
    We still are waiting to find out if my husband will be allowed home for this birth.
    Thank you ladies!!
  • Very good to know :)
