I placed a huge amazon order last night for baby. I might just maybe be ready when she gets here? I bought a bunch of stuff on Thursday with my completion discount, it arrived yesterday! My mom also gifted me a bunch of nursing tanks and shirts from my registry yesterday. I also washed and have all of the N and 0-3 month clothes put away. I do need to get a few more things for me for postpartum, but I am definitely ready for baby when he gets here!

We went to BRU today to trade in DD's old crib mattress for a coupon. We tried for like an hour to have them order the car seat we wanted with the coupon but the systems were down. I came home and was able to order it in 2 minutes. That place was chaos. I am not shocked they are going out of business.
DD also started lessons at the swim school that just opened by us. She was so excited and did so great!

I have two nursing bras, and I need to pick up a sleep one or two. I have the clothes sorted & put into a hamper to wash, but we're moving the toddler into a different dresser so that the baby's will have the changing pad on it. I still need to pick up a couple more nursing tanks, too. But, as of now, she'll have something to ride home in (finally picked out a carseat), somethings to wear, somethings to use to eat (whether my boobs or bottles, whichever), and somewhere to sleep, so I'm good. Next up is attempting to name this child. Ugh.

I don't think I'm getting a dresser for F, just not enough room, but I do need to get some bins to put his clothes in. I'm going to fit what I can into the drawers of the side table I'm putting in his area, and the rest will go into cloth bins that are going to go on the shelves of his changing table.

budders, this one is proving to be a pain. The first two had full names prior to finding out their sex. This one has a middle name and a list of about 20 names that I like, but none that I LOVE, you know?

Ive had her first name since before she was conceived, but I’m still not sold on a middle name for her - it’s not even that big a deal given it’s just her middle name but I want to love it as much as DD’s name. Problem is I have one, but DH still says no...

No name over here either. I tried writing them out in full first and last. That helped me eliminate two for 7 for some reason. I still fee just as clueless.

We have a middle name. We had decided on a most likely first name but now I’m not sure.

We've most likely arrived at a name because it's the only one we both like and agree on. That's what happened with V too and now we love his name. I don't feel confident saying we're decided yet though, mostly because H hasn't fully committed.

We have no name and pretty much no discussion at this point. Neither of our other two were named prior to being born, but we at least had it narrowed down.

Although I will say in the very very brief talk we had, he did not put the automatic no way on my favorite name the way he did with the last two!

H happily surprised me and made a comment insinuating the boy name would be the one I have been wanting. To be fair, I honestly have only one other name on my boy list (and he doesn't like that one) and he has no list so... And we seem to be on the same page for girl names (he likes the two I've put forward) so I'm cautiously optimistic for this baby.

I’m sitting here marveling about how productive I am at work today because I’m not dealing with our house. I occasionally think about it and realise I just get to go home and live in it now. Amazing!

Passed my glucose test! Of course my vitamin D levels are still perpetually low, despite me being on a high dose.

My GTT was Wednesday morning and no results yet In the past when I haven't had online lab results available, the doctor never called unless there was something concerning. They should have the results though, so call for some peace of mind if you need it! ETA: Ignore me, I didn't RTMFT

When DS was a newborn, we started with a plastic organizer (short with 3 drawers) for his clothes. Kept current size on top, next size in middle, and diapers on bottom. Would something like that work?

Now, yell “I love you Henry”. On and on. She loves it.

It’s weird because they always post everything on the patient portal but they called this morning to tell me to up my Vitamin D so I asked.

H brought home coffee & donuts after a super early errand this morning. Except now I think I may make a fried egg sandwich for second breakfast. End of pregnancy turns me into a Hobbit.

I forgot that I did lab work last week. I just got a call from my OB to tell me my hemoglobin is at 9 so I need to add daily iron supplements and new lab work next week.

On the body thing, my coworker asked me the other day if I was sure I wasn't having twins. Welp, I'm 32 weeks, so unless #2 is really good at hiding, I'm pretty sure it's just one. I am used to comments like this, unfortunately.

I am used to comments like this, unfortunately. There have been lots of ultrasounds, but I sometimes question if there's two or if I'm growing an octopus. There's no way there's ONLY four extremities in there.
