So, where are you in your pregnancy and what do you have left to do?

I know a lot of girls are nearing the end of their pregnancy, but just wanted to start a thread to see what stage everyone is in and what you have left to do!

I'm only 15 weeks, so I pretty much have everything left to do! Chat Icon Register, plan a shower, construction on the house before I can even begin thinking about decorating a nursery, I'm sure the list will just keep growing the further along I am! Chat Icon Especially since this is our first and I have no idea what I'm doing Chat Icon

Re: So, where are you in your pregnancy and what do you have left to do?

I am just starting my 25th week.

I have SO much left to do.

Most of it is home improvement projects though. We need to paint a bunch of areas in the house, get all of the carpets steam cleaned, move furniture around, set up the nursery, hang some frames etc.... and since all of the tasks have to come after the painters who we are waiting on... I am so scared NONE of it is ever going to get done. Chat Icon

We also need to research life insurance and find a lawyer so we can have a will written up.

I scheduled the CPR class and the baby safety class, but I still need to help DH learn about all the baby basics (diapering, bathing, etc.)

and then there is so much more after these- but right now those are my priorities.

Re: So, where are you in your pregnancy and what do you have left to do?

I'm 34 weeks, and I pretty much have everything left to do in terms of getting the nursery ready! I'm Jewish, and traditionally, we don't do a lot to prepare for the baby before it arrives (superstitious). However, we are now finally working on preparing the nursery. The room is painted, and next weekend we are going to put up the wall decals. Our furniture came in, and we'll have it delivered sometime after 37 weeks. Our glider is at our house, but not assembled yet. We ordered cellular shades from Blinds to Go, and will pick them up this weekend. DH is going to work on the closet (adding another bar and painting) in a few weeks while I'm at a baby shower. As long as this Chat Icon doesn't come early, we should be ready.

We also have to buy diapers, the bassinet, and other necessities. We are going to pick out a layette this weekend, and one of our moms will pick it up after the baby is born.

I have 4 weeks to my due date and I have everything left to do! This is our second baby, so I haven't been stressing like I did with our first, but boy do I feel behind!

I am full term next week, so this weekend we are devoting to re-arranging closets, washing baby clothes, getting a bassinet, and researching double strollers. We also need to get the infant car seat, swing, and bouncer out of storage.

Next weekend is a bust b/c it is my MIL birthday (don't get me started on having to schlep to PA while 37 weeks pregnant to celebrate her bday and Mother's day even though I am a mom too! Makes me so angry!)

We may have the following weekend if I don't deliver early, while I likely won't.

The weekend after is Memorial Day and I will be 39 weeks, so I really don't want to be preparing then.

DH has a lot of work cut out for him!!!!

I"m 17 weeks, and I have EVERYTHING left to do! I'm hoping to find out soon if we're having a boy or a girl. I feel like that will motivate us to pick paint colors and start registering.
