Every pregnancy period is filled with excitement, as well as emotional distress (at times). There’s so much to do – and also to forget to do – before the arrival of your newborn child that what you really need is a list to help you stay on top of things. So here we go..

If you have owned your car for at least 2 years, it’s a good idea to have it checked before the arrival of your child. Don’t forget to also shop around for a baby car seat – the hybrid car seats for babies are great, they double as a pram as well as a booster seat, killing two birds with one stone.

You might like to also look into getting the windows of the car tinted to prevent your baby from getting sunburnt (they have extremely delicate skin).

Pamper yourself as much as you can. Take that weekend trip that you’ve been meaning to for a while now with your significant other as it might be a long time before you’re able to spend a quiet weekend away with just the two of you without needing to attend to a screaming, crying baby.

In the weeks before your newborn is due, cook in bulk freeze it for instant microwavable meals for the hectic first weeks. If you’re not into cooking at all you can go online and organize to have your lunch and dinners prepared and delivered to your doorstep for the first month at least. Also organize for your carpets to be steam cleaned before bringing your baby home. If you have a bigger budget, you might want to hire someone to come and help do your cleaning and house chores for the first month or two to help take the load off your hands – you’ll be busy enough as it is.

Dogs and cats can be dangerous around your bundle of joy, so make sure you take the necessary precautions if you own any pets. You should get any in-house security fences installed to set boundaries for where your pets can and cannot go to ensure the safety of your baby. And speaking of safety, it’s the perfect time now to get your dog or cat vaccinated and brought in for a check-up as well.

Walking the pet is while pushing your baby may not be easy either. You might want to pass on the responsibility to someone else in the family temporarily till things settle down.

A safe and clean home environment is crucial for your baby so make sure that your dog is properly trained prior to the baby’s arrival to avoid any disasters later on.
