BTDT moms with more than 1...

When did you start getting ready for the baby? This is my third, and I'm not really sure when to get serious about getting ready for the baby...I'm almost 24 weeks now and I feel like I need to have a bit of a plan, since I work full time and have 2 other kids who I am running around with all the time. When did you start the nursery, buy the new things you needed, etc? I am a procrastinator too, so I worry that I might wait too long!

I've been seriously getting ready the last two weeks. I'm due with my 3rd in two days. I'm a SAHM now as of a month ago but if I were still working, I'd break out my tasks by week on a list with the hardest getting done first before its too uncomfortable to move!

We are team green so a lot of things will have to wait until baby is here. We aren't doing a nursery yet because the baby will be in our room for the first few weeks/months and we need that room for OOS grandparents to visit.

I just spruced up the car seat, set up the pack and play, washed gender neutral clothes/bedding/etc, and bought the little essentials. I packed my hospital bag a couple days ago. Not a whole lot but I will be busy online ordering after baby gets here!

I am 25 weeks and have been doing a few things here and there. I have no bedroom for the baby right now so I am trying to clear room in the playroom (which is small) to at least have the changing table/dresser set up. I did my registry since my mil and sil are having a shower for me. My SS is 16 and DD is almost 7.
I won't be doing any of the real preparing until I am further along. I am figuring when I am in the mid 30's I'll start washing nb clothes and packing my bag as well as cleaning the stuff baby will use right away.

I'm 33 weeks and have done nothing. This is my 3rd and we just haven't gotten our act together. This weekend we finally have started on my DS's big boy room so that when that baby gets here he'll have a crib. I haven't even bought a onsie yet

Earlier than my other two. We had some time around christmas and finished her nursery before I was even 20 weeks. We've been buying stuff here and there since then and we're almost done. I'm not quite 29weeks now. I didn't want a mad rush financially or physically at the end this time.

Hi due date twin this is my third child as well and I'm also a procrastinator, lol. I think I am going to start getting things ready in May. I have pretty much everything for this baby from my other two, but want to buy a few new things.
