And then my water broke right after we ordered our food. Needless to say, we didn't get to finish our dinner.</p> <p>After 14 hours of labor and 10 minutes of pushing, Willa was born at 8:28am on 1/22. We are loving every minute of it! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/last-weekend-before-the-baby-what-would-you-do#post-58478 Wed, 25 Jan 2012 06:15:57 +0000 mediagirl 58478@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@BabyBoecksMom: I hope you had a great weekend, whatever you decided to do. Can't wait to hear about your baby!! Hope all is well! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/last-weekend-before-the-baby-what-would-you-do#post-58473 Wed, 25 Jan 2012 05:23:47 +0000 aunt pol 58473@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>If you feel up to it, and don't have someone volunteering to do it for you, maybe make a few casseroles and freeze them. At least you'll have a few easy dinners for the weeks after. Although the beauty treatments and dinner out should go in there too! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/last-weekend-before-the-baby-what-would-you-do#post-58291 Tue, 24 Jan 2012 22:15:30 +0000 tequiero21 58291@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>have a date with the hubs! go to a spa or something! good luck with the induction!!!</p> <p>eta: you should have been induced by now!!! GOOD LUCK! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/last-weekend-before-the-baby-what-would-you-do#post-58235 Tue, 24 Jan 2012 21:52:52 +0000 AvantLaLettre 58235@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Definitely mani/pedi, probably get a massage (if in the budget), definitely out to a nice dinner with the hubby, perhaps out to a movie, or rent one, and definitely as much sleep as possible. Also, would try to clean the house as well as I could. If there was time, I might try to sneak in a good, "can't put it down" book as well. Good luck!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/last-weekend-before-the-baby-what-would-you-do#post-56243 Sat, 21 Jan 2012 13:51:34 +0000 lemondrop 56243@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>1. Sleep!<br /> 2. Really nice, long dinner with your husband, soon enough you'll be choosing places based on feeding schedules and escape routes and crowds if baby gets rowdy.<br /> 3. A movie, if you can stand to sit through it- I was so uncomfortable at the movies sitting in one place my last few weeks.<br /> Have a great last weekend, but you'll be loving life once your girl comes too! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/last-weekend-before-the-baby-what-would-you-do#post-56225 Sat, 21 Jan 2012 13:04:12 +0000 owlmom 56225@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@artbee: how nice! We didn't have that luxury, so it was definitely something I'm glad I did :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/last-weekend-before-the-baby-what-would-you-do#post-56220 Sat, 21 Jan 2012 12:34:29 +0000 808love 56220@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>pedi and movies </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/last-weekend-before-the-baby-what-would-you-do#post-56216 Sat, 21 Jan 2012 12:12:23 +0000 wife09mommy11 56216@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I had a scheduled induction for a Tuesday and ended up giving birth the Saturday beforehand. Maybe that will happen to you too. Good luck! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/last-weekend-before-the-baby-what-would-you-do#post-56212 Sat, 21 Jan 2012 12:03:12 +0000 heffalump 56212@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@owlmom: My parents and in laws came over after the baby came to clean and bring food. If I had the choice I'd leave it for them to do and spend my last moments doing fun baby free things. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/last-weekend-before-the-baby-what-would-you-do#post-56180 Sat, 21 Jan 2012 10:40:37 +0000 owlmom 56180@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Definitely go out with your husband! Also, not a fun suggestion, but I cleaned my house before my induction, and I'm really glad I did. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/last-weekend-before-the-baby-what-would-you-do#post-56174 Sat, 21 Jan 2012 10:11:46 +0000 heffalump 56174@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I would relax. You won't be doing any of that soon! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/last-weekend-before-the-baby-what-would-you-do#post-56172 Sat, 21 Jan 2012 10:06:58 +0000 chopsuey 56172@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>What everyone else said!! I don't know about the Mani, since nail polish chips and you'll be handling a newborn, but DEFINITELY get a pedi, go eat every meal out with your DH (it'll be a while before you get to eat out again), go to the movie theater, take a long shower or bath! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/last-weekend-before-the-baby-what-would-you-do#post-56167 Sat, 21 Jan 2012 09:41:50 +0000 autumnlove 56167@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Take long showers, run errands, get a manicure &amp; pedicure and enjoy some alone time, eat out...congrats! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/last-weekend-before-the-baby-what-would-you-do#post-56166 Sat, 21 Jan 2012 09:38:16 +0000 Mrs. Pickle 56166@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I would go to the movies and go out to dinner with my husband. I would also spend some time snuggling on the couch with him enjoying the peace and quiet and it just being the two of us. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/last-weekend-before-the-baby-what-would-you-do#post-56160 Sat, 21 Jan 2012 09:19:55 +0000 reggie 56160@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>go out to a fancy dinner and treat yourself with mani and pedi! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/last-weekend-before-the-baby-what-would-you-do#post-56154 Sat, 21 Jan 2012 08:54:42 +0000 Andrea 56154@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I would add going to the movies on that list. I've seen a lot of people on here say on another thread that they miss doing that a lot. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/last-weekend-before-the-baby-what-would-you-do#post-56153 Sat, 21 Jan 2012 08:52:13 +0000 looch 56153@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Me too, that's what we did. I was almost induced, but the last weekend, we went out to eat and went to the annual Christmas market! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/last-weekend-before-the-baby-what-would-you-do#post-56149 Sat, 21 Jan 2012 08:47:38 +0000 winniebee 56149@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I would go out to a last hurrah dinner with my hubby! Somewhere fun that we definitely couldn't go with our baby. Also, manicure and pedicure : )</p> <p>Good luck next wk! </p>
