Diaper Swappers

ChloeNAydensmom · 03-13-2013, 01:54 PM

My list is MUCH smaller now! Things left to do is

Paint babies room
Buy a pkg if NB socks
Buy a few pacifiers in case this one likes them
Buy some minkee to make wipes with receiving blankets we don't use
Buy new straps for my big coach purse that will be the diaper bag (both this and minkee will be done at Joann's)
Pay for NB and OS SYOF fitted diapers once it invoices
Knit or have someone knit a pair of longies with yarn I have coming (MM coastal sunset)
I will wash our diapers and start to pack my bag once it gets closer to May 8th which is my c-section date. Most of this list is little things and will get done in one day (Im hoping this weekend)

Yeah, my never ending list is getting smaller too. I am sure I will have a new list once the baby comes but at lest the really important pre baby stuff is almost all done..

Move into a new house, get somewhat settled in new house because we will have abput 3 weeks til me due date after we move in and I am doing a homebirth, get a carseat, more boy clothes, pretty much everything for a boy (we have 2 girls), sell my girl diapers so I have funds to buy boy diapers, pick a middle name...yea I had a bit of a panic today when I realized I am so not ready. LOL!

Yikes! When is your due date? Id be seriously freaking if I still had all that to do! (Not to freak you out more lol, I am just the type that needs everything done pretty far in advance when it comes to a baby)

Honestly, we still have to do just about everything. For the most part there is nothing we need to buy, and I'm not worried about having everything ready to go since they don't need most of that stuff . I I think I could use a few more flats, we need to pick up another car seat, and pull out my daughter's baby clothes from my parents crawlspace. We're moving out of our condo this weekend and then have a few more weeks until we take possession of our new place. Once we move in and do a few renos I'll start getting "ready" for them and see what we need to buy or get. We have one boy name and one girl name, but we haven't decided on a second boy and girl name yet.

Im pretty much ready! Im on bedrest till 36 weeks so my shopping online is done but I need to get 4 more 0-3 mo sleepers when Im off bedrest. And I will install the carseat and pack hospital bags at 36 weeks as well. I stop all meds to stop labor and bedrest that week, and usually go into labor within a week of that point. So that will be a busy week!
My kids helped me wash all her laundry and we decided to use sposies, so now its just a countdown till Im full term!

We are done too

I was put on bedrest at 30 weeks last pregnancy and baby was here at 34+4 so I vowed to be ready early this time. Last time we didn't even have our carseat because I was supposed to have a shower before baby came but that didn't work out! So everything is going great this time but we are prepared!!

I have nothing done I feel like! I have the crib in the room & hubby painted but that is it. Hope this one isn't early!

I gave my DH the deadline of the end of March for getting the crib and changing table put together/out of storage. I'll be packing the hospital bag and the bag for the big boys (for at grandparents' house). Also need to get the car seats installed 3-across.

I can add my list:
Carry cradle upstairs and make it up in the green-checked bumper bedding
Buy newborn socks and another box of newborn diapers
Pack hospital bag
Possibly get NEW bjorn
