So what do I need to do? So far I've gathered up some baby clothes and found the cloth diapers. I've failed to find my favorite sling, but a friend of mine thinks she may have it, so I'm not looking until she gets a chance to check. This weekend we are going to rearrange the minivan, which I'm not looking forward to at all. Right now we have one of the seats removed and I'm going to miss that big, convenient, empty space! I even got around to pre-registering at the hospital. We're compiling a list of suckers - I mean volunteers - to take the other kids while we're off delivering.

So what else do I need to do? I don't have post-partum supplies, nursing pads or nursing bras. Anything else I should be thinking of?

Well, here's a fun one...do you have a coming home outfit for the baby? That's always one of my fav things to buy.

Seriously, just wing it. It's more fun that way.

I really wish that I had cooked and frozen meals before hand. If someone asks (like your parents or family) if you need anything for the baby (and with #5 what do you need, really?) tell them a meal for the freezer.
I always thought I'd "stock my freezer" before the baby came but I never got around to it.

Me either. :lol: I'm beginning to understand why Picabo Street's parents just let her pick her own name as a toddler. How are your own naming decisions coming? You had some great names on your list when you posted the link. :)

I love having full naming power, definatly makes things easier. And once I find a name, it usually sticks even if I have been concidering other names
