A couple of friends have give me lists of what they put in theirs so I'll use them as a starting point. Packing my hospital bag is something else I've been thinking I need to do over the next few weeks and what to put in it. You don't need to take everything with you into the hospital to start with
#COUNTDOWN TO PREGNANCY FULL#
My mother in law kindly offered to wash all the baby clothes and sort them into their various sizes which was a gods send as there were literally bin bags full – enough to cloth about 10 babies probably! It's not finished but I feel better having made a start and deciphered what we actually have and what other things we may need as and when the time comes.

We have bought most things now and we've been given so much by very generous friends who've already had babies that the nursery is fit to burst! We'd just chucked everything in there and this week I had a mild panic about needing to sort it all out and get it in some kind of order. I've suddenly gone into full on nesting mode this week I went for my right side as I tend to sleep more on my left, but I am right handed so lifting my arm and carrying anything has been a bit painful. Suddenly it felt like that might well come round super quick!Ī word on the whopping cough vaccination – it's actually a combined vaccine and includes tetanus which does make your arm ache for a few days afterwards, so have a think about which side you'd like it on. This week I had my whooping cough vaccination and the nurse said as I was leaving that she'd see me again when baby was 8 weeks old and ready for her first vaccinations.

The countdown really seems to have begun now the weeks start with a '3' – 10 weeks to go really doesn't feel like long at all, although everyone I know of complains of time dragging near the end!
