I’m 31 weeks pregnant today, and it just dawned on me that there so many things still left undone.
In less than 10 weeks, my husband and I will be welcoming our second little bundle of joy into our family, and while we are definitely excited about the whole thing, I can’t help feeling like this is all moving a little too fast for me. Are we ready?
My prenatal visits are now scheduled every fortnightly, and this time round, I am feeling the baby’s movements a whole lot more than before. Even the Braxton-Hicks contractions are more pronounced and as expected, I feel rounder and bigger.
And yet, I still have these items to tick off my to-do list:
- Wash baby’s newborn clothes
- Wash cloth diapers for baby
- Pack baby bag to bring to the hospital
- Pack Mommy bag to bring to the hospital, throwing in some essentials for Daddy too
- Get little pressie to give Ethan on behalf of baby
- (Time is running out but) get going on some exercise
Well, at least tomorrow we will be attending a short session called the Journey to Family orientation, which is supposed to get us more acclimatized with the hospital I will be delivering in. And hopefully, we’ll get to hand in the forms for the maternity pre-admission too. Yup, the pre-admission forms need to be submitted before the baby comes, not when you are in labor and everything is all over the place.
Breathe… breathe… breathe… 🙂

All those lists from the hospital is just plain intimidating
I didn’t even have time to attend the hospital orientation program or pack any bags. … get husband to pack last minute lo.
