I learned from experience, during my very first pregnancy, that labor can come at any time and you probably won’t ever be fully prepared until it happens. I started dilating at 27 weeks with my first, so you can imagine the rush of emotions when I was NOWHERE NEAR prepared - and hadn’t even thought of ‘what if’ back then. Ever since, I try to remind myself to start preparing for that moment, early. It’s not hard, keep it simple, but make sure you’re going into that special day - knowing you have what you’re going to need or even want before you can return home with babe.
