5 things to do before baby is born:
1. Go away, by yourselves, for the weekend.
You might not really have the money for it as you are busy saving for all the 'must have' paraphernalia you need for baby, but you really won't have the money, or the time for this once baby arrives.
2. Enjoy being able go for a drink at the pub, out for dinner or to the cinema on a whim, you won't be able to do this so easily soon!
3. Begin stocking up on the essentials: nappies, wipes, nappy rash cream as you approach D Day, it will help spread the cost after baby arrives. You'll be amazed at how quickly you get through stuff and how much extra cash you're spending on your weekly shop.
4. Series link anything that looks good on your TV planner. You'll be grateful for this during the early stages of labour and for all of those times when you are feeding your baby - especially late at night.
5. Make the most of people doing everything for you and put your feet up. All too soon you'll be doing everything, the word 'multi tasking' doesn't even cover what you'll be expected to do.
5 things that you'll swear will never happen to you (but will) once baby is born:
 |
| Sensible haircut? Check. Practical footwear? Check. Ridiculous sized parasol? Check. Overstuffed change bag? Check. I could go on... |
1. You'll get a sensible haircut.
2. Practical will be the new fashionable. You might even wear a bum bag. (Did I really put that in print? I admit, it may have happened once or twice, well I do only have two hands!)
3. Dads will begin to perfect the art of embarrassing Dad Dancing. (I have video evidence of this, but Captain Sensible has forbidden me to publish it! He'll have to stay in my good books.)
4. You'll talk about your child's poo, vomit etc etc A LOT, to anyone. In fact you'll become one of those annoying people that talk about your baby, all the time, to anyone.
5. You'll try to colour coordinate your outfit with the baby's at least once!
