Nursery

Anyone else feeling a bit lost with baby at nursery? She’s on day two now. I start work in a week. Have so much to do but can’t bring myself to do anything! I miss her but kind of also glad to have the downtime if that makes any sense?! I just hope she’s happy!

26w+2d and I’m over it

Am i the only one who’s very tired of being pregnant? I’m constantly trying to remind myself to enjoy the process time flies and baby will be here but I’m seriously over it. I’m never comfortable, I feel tired and sluggish all the time and I seriously just can’t wait for December!!!!!!!!

Reveal help

We will be finding out what baby is somewhere around October 14th-28th and then we will be announcing to everyone we are expecting our fourth child. I want to make it special and cute/sweet because it’s going to be our last baby. I’m open to holiday themed ideas. Tia

At what point in pregnancy did you have the nursery ready?

I know baby won’t sleep in there right away but I want it sorted before he comes so it’s not a nightmare trying to sort with a newborn etc. what point in your pregnancy did you have everything in place and ready?
