  • My parents helped me out after my shower. I got a lot of clothes from family and rummage sales! But I feel ya.
    Im moving from WI to AZ in two weeks and im freaking out! If the BD is around, talk to him. It helped me a lot when my husband finally talked to me about the baby. I wish the best of luck :)

    Im 31 weeks.
  • Don't ever panic! Lol... I know, easier said than done! Personally, I would go ahead and get just the bare minimum of basics; a package of diapers & wipes, and few onsies, a warm blanket & package of swaddling blankets. Basically, just enough to have your hospital bag packed. Then, if you do go into labor early, you'll be prepared for that & able to bring her home.
    As far as the name goes... my hubby & I had a list of 10 on our fridge & agreed that every day we would cross 1 name off. Some days we didn't agree & nothing got crossed off, and some days we even added a name instead, lol. But eventually, we narrowed it down to the perfect name. :)
    You could even narrow it down to just 2 or 3 and then wait until you see her to make the final decision; I couldn't because I was too afraid I wouldn't be able to decide even then, and I refused to let her leave the hospital without a name!
    Good luck! You'll be just fine! :)
  • Tnx ladies:) its just feels so overwhelming. Bt in da end, I can't wait to just hold her.I guess dat calms my nerves for now...

  • @nitalove I'm a day ahead of u....I have 5wks 4 days left. This baby doesn't have a name yet, or even diapers, I don't have my bag packed for the hosptial either. Baby has a place to sleep and that is about it. But lots of love. lol

    @jess8d7 where is wi? To where is az? That will be a nice change.


  • With my 1st baby we lived in a tiny one bed apt...just get a pack n play bassinet...its so helpful...rolls where you need it!! I'm 39 weeks on wed and live in a 5 bd house now...we have lots of room but we still went with the bassinet...my sob was only in a crib for a few months before we decided to put him in a toddler bed when he turned one....lots cheaper and easier to move...
