Projects??
So, I am not due for another 2.5 months, but since I was freelancing I am not really working now since my employer needed to cut back a little. I hope to do some working from home in Dec, but I am not getting my hopes up.
I am totally BORED, and am just trying to find things to do to occupy my time-- with spending as little money as possible-- not easy!
What are some good prep for the baby projects that I can do?? I have these so far:
- Pre-natal yoga
- Research pediatricians
- Look for/prepare birth announcements
- Finish up whatever I can in the nursery
- Write birth plan
- Read up on vaccinations, etc. in baby books
- Read up on newborn baby care in baby books
What else??? I need activities!!

Re: Projects??
You can look into educational toys and start building your children's library. Also, I would research how to childproof the house.

Re: Projects??
Have you looked into classes yet like lamaze, child care and breastfeeding ones offered through your hospital? You can also look at the books that talk about what to do when the baby's first born - things that'll come up, philosophies on rearing, etc. And you can always give yourself a DIY project like creating something for the nursery.
