Hey, SheKnows Guest - we need you! The SheKnows pregnancy boards aren't going anywhere - but perhaps you'd consider helping us grow our new pregnancy message boards at talk.PregnancyAndBaby.com? We want to be able to provide even more resources and support to expectant moms, which means giving SK's sister community a little extra love. Please check out the new P&B boards here - and thanks!
Unlike with Caroline getting motivated to buy the necessities has been difficult. I think I had everything ready for her by 5 months, but I'm REALLY lagging behind for Griffin. After my Doc appt Thursday (which went well) I decided to head to Babies R Us and get the car seat just in case I get put on bedrest or something else happens. I was starting to stress about it and since we should be getting our stimulus check Friday I decided to go ahead and get the rest of what I needed. I still need to get a changing pad for the changing table because I forgot my SIL tossed the one she had for both nephews which I used for Caroline and I think I want to get one more of the quilted pack n play sheets, but neither of those are necessities. Now if we can get the nursery done in the next 3-4 weeks we'll be SET! I can't believe I'm about to have a newborn in the house again, and a boy at that. I always pictured myself with two girls!
Well I'm glad you feel more prepared now.
I'm looking forward to our stimulus check too...but we have most of what we need.
I was super-charged earlier in pregnancy and got the nursery done early etc but the past couple of weeks I have been a bit unmotivated to do the final tasks.
Well I decided today I better get on it! These babies will be here before we know it!

That is a relief! I look forward to getting everything ready for this little one. Even though I am a good 10 weeks away, I would like to have the closet and bedroom reorganized to fit all of the baby clothes (we co-sleep, so the 2 kids sleep with us - we just use their "upstairs play room" for housing their clothes). :giggle Sounds like you are on the right track!

Man I wish we have even started getting everything ready, lol. I have to wait until we get it all moved and then I'll have like 4 weeks before my due date to get it all done. You certainly are more prepared than I am that's for sure. I think I'll pick up a few things this week, just to put my mind at ease. It sounds like you are doing great!!
I wish I felt the same! I still have a list of things to get done... mostly home-repair stuff, lol, so I GUESS life would go on if he came today... but still!! I feel SO unprepared!

I wish I had as much stuff done! We still have to do Jack's room but my DH swears it will be done in a month. I am starting to worry but he swears he does better under pressure. Men!!

I can breathe a sigh of relief...
