What last minute baby prep did we do?
Any Questions? A Podcast About Conception, Pregnancy and Realistic MotherhoodShow Notes
In the final weeks/months of pregnancy leading up to baby's arrival, what did we do to prepare ourselves and our home? Did we prioritize the right tasks and is it ever possible to feel fully ready for a newborn?
In this week's episode I'll go through the to-do list and schedule my husband and I put together for our last minute baby prep - including making freezer meals, testing out baby gear and finalizing our birth plan. I'll share what we did, why the timing worked (or didn't!) and how I felt about all of our prep.
