I know I have some time, but I am a list maker! So even though I have about 6 weeks til baby arrives, I am itching to get a list started. We were at Walmart this week and I picked up some baby essentials. Some newborn Huggies, even though we cloth. I have no idea how any of my cloth stash will fit the baby, so have to have some back up ready! Some wipes, baby shampoo and baby wash, etc were also purchased. I like to feel prepared. There is nothing I am in control of while being pregnant, and I like to feel some control. So the nesting has begun. I feel better having stuff purchased and now to get packing! I am starting to think about all the things that need to be packed for the hospital. Here is my list so far.
For Labor:
Lotion for massage
Massager
Ponytail Holder
Chapstick
Nature sounds CD and headset
Change for snack machine (for Daddy)
Gatorade
Camera and charger
Video Camera and charger
Cell phone and charger
For Postpartum:
Boppy Pillow
Bed Pillow
Nursing Cover
Nursing Pajamas
Robe
Nursing Bra
Toiletries
Pads
Big Granny Panty style Undies ;)
Going Home Outfit for Baby
Warm Blanket for Baby

Fun items for Big Brother and Sister
