Help me prepare for this baby

[papie]

?

I've done basically nothing and am 33 weeks.  I washed a few newborn onesies and PJs and can't remember how many I need to have? NB or 0-3? I have like 3 PJs, and definitely need to buy some more. 

The crib is installed (never took it down when we got Sophia out of it a year ago), we just need to raise the mattress.  And dig the bassinet out of the basement storage. 

Other things on my to-do:
- wash my wraps and sling
- wash my newborn diapers
- buy one pack of newborn or size 1 for the hospital
- buy a carseat with an adapter for my Bugaboo.  I have a Bugaboo Frog, do they still sell adapters for those? I had a Peg Perego with my girls and hated it, it weighed a million lbs.  A friend recommended Maxi Cosi.  Thoughts?
- make freezer meals.  My mom is coming to help during spring break (first week of march).
- buy a swing.  My old one is pretty much dead, it was swinging funny at the end with Sophia. 


What else do I NEED? I am good, right? As long as I get started soonish?

What about one of those bouncy recliner things? We had a swing but I hated lugging it around when I needed it in a different room.

I have two of those I just need to wash them.  I also have two activity mats.  Wait, three.  Wash as well.

Already? I was thinking I'd do that around 37 weeks?

No, I was just thinking about anything that needs to be done. Don't panic!

Ok, thanks! I thought I was good, but was worried I forgot something super important, lol.
