I wanted to really savor my last days with DH, last days feeling her kick, last days to do what I wanted, when I wanted. I was excited, but also appreciated the time that I had left that I'd never have back.</p> <p>that was before LO #1 was here though - so if we have a second, it'll probably be savoring time with LO being my only baby, easier shopping trips, trying to spoil LO etc. Appreciating nap times because they mean a break, where with more than one, they aren't always napping at the same time = naps aren't a break anymore! lol. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-did-you-keep-your-mind-occupied-the-last-few-weeks#post-1451128 Wed, 26 Feb 2014 13:21:28 +0000 Mrs. Champagne 1451128@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Bao: I got mine cheap at walmart!</p> <p>Following along.. done work on Friday and just hit 37 weeks.

I am getting anxious all the sudden and ready to meet baby. I really should be resting since I chase after a toddler all day ;) I know she will be here before I know it, but I need to put my focus elsewhere. How did you stay occupied the last few weeks without every thought being baby? </p>
