36 Weeks Pregnant
Just one month to go, mama! Can you believe it?
It was around this time during my pregnancies that I really got my tush into gear. With that in mind, here’s a quick little checklist for you.
Is your birth doula lined up?
Do you have a lactation consultant waiting in the wings just in case?
Are you doing your pregnancy exercises regularly?
Is the carseat installed?
Is baby’s crib, co-sleeper, or sleeping area ready?
Got a cloth diaper stash yet? (And perhaps some disposables for those first few days when baby is eliminating meconium?)
Got a week (or more!) of nutritious meals in your freezer?
Do you have your breastfeeding pump, breastfeeding pillow, and nipple cream at home?
Are baby’s onesies and PJs washed and ready?
Are you drinking your Red Raspberry Leaf tea?
Eating your 6 dates a day?
Got your child’s pediatrician lined up?
Have you customized and printed your visual birth plan?
Got a birth photographer lined up? (Or want to do it yourself?)
Do you have childcare sorted out for delivery day if you have another child?
This checklist is just here to give you some ideas, not overwhelm you—take what you like and leave the rest!
