I have to apologize for the lack of material here. I have 15 days left of my LAST pregnancy, and pregnesia has completely taken over my brain. The fact that I (usually) remember to feed my currently outside of the womb kids, throw in the occasional load of laundry and run the dishwasher before we end up eating off paper plates is a miracle, as far as I'm concerned.
I went through a "nesting" energy spurt late last week, but I'm not betting on it happening again. At least my hospital bag is now (mostly) packed, and the car seat and bassinette are ready. After having done this three times previously, I'm pretty sure those are the main ones. Anything else we'll figure out as we go along. I have bottles, though they haven't been sterilized in hopes of not needing them for a while (ha!), and a teeny sample can of formula. I have one package of newborn diapers, since I'm always afraid of ending up with a giant baby who won't fit them anyway. I'll make hubby run to the store for more before we go home, depending on what size we need. If it turns out we need formula, I'll make sure he picks that up as well.
Other than that, what does a baby really need? Although us moms like to have matching everything, picture-perfect nurseries, stroller sets worthy of being built by Ferrari and gorgeous little layette sets (that they'll never wear in the end because they might get ruined by spit up), the baby doesn't really NEED all of that stuff. Damn it's fun looking, though :)
So, anyway, I don't know if I'll post again before I get home from the hospital, unless I have a sudden flash of inspiration. I'm also hoping afterwards to start getting other writers onboard, but that takes energy, which is something I'm sorely lacking right now.
Wish me luck, and I'll be back!

Congrats Cyn! And Good luck - not that you'll need it... you could probably navigate the doctor's through the procedure by now... :)
Probably, but I don't think I'll try LOL!
