Getting Ready for Baby!

We are getting anxious for the baby. Tonight is our last birthing class. We learn how to breathe and relax tonight. We have pre-registered for the hospital. We have also installed a new closet system in the nursery to organize all of our baby stuff. Who would believe all the stuff that comes with the baby?

We bought a bassinet yesterday, so the baby can sleep in our room for the first month or two without the dogs licking him.

We also bought a changing pad for the changing table, it's too big. Who would have known that you needed to measure for that..... I will be returning that for something a bit more appropriate. This is the changing table - no pad. Thank you IKEA for making everything in a crazy size.




We still have to figure out how to install the car seat. We bought 2 bases so we can just move the car seat from car to car without too much hassle. We will also be creating the birth plan this week. I guess that is the thing to do now is make a plan, write it down and give one to the doctor, the labor nurse and the coach. It details anything that you want to happen - epidural, who cuts the cord and so on. We definitely don't want to forget this, we might not remember what we want in the heat of delivery!

Gosh, there is a lot to remember!
