Hi all, first time mom here at age 32! Couldn’t be more excited, but having mixed emotions. Ready for baby girl to be here (very impatient), but also feeling like there’s so much to do before then. Would appreciate any and all check lists or kind words of wisdom to help ease anxiety during the third trimester!
Congrats on your baby girl! It is normal to feel excited and worried at the same time. I made a simple list of things to do before the baby arrived, and it helped me feel more at ease.
If you can get a small weekend getaway in with a pool, relax, and breakfast… do it. I was so hurried to “be ready” and now I regret that. I wish someone recommended it to me.
We didn’t really use the nursery for like a year but I spent sooo much time making sure it was ready. She went to the bassinet in our room first. Bassinet , changing station, and MEAL prep.
The last few weeks of waiting were the worst for me I was so impatient but we didn’t find out the gender with our last 2 and I was so ready to find out! Just have your bag packed and ready to go I was so worried about the check list and none of that mattered. Try to relax and just enjoy it and you will have that sweet baby in your arms before you know it!
