36 Weeks - The Count Down Is On
Monday was week 36 and another doctor’s appointment under our belts, so to speak. Everything still looks good and the doc said it could happen at any time now. Little is confirmed to be head down and descending and I’m dilated 1-2 with 50% thinning. We’ll see what news the visit next Monday holds. I’m working on packing my hospital bag.
Her nursery is coming along nicely. M is working on the trim and should have it finished up this weekend. Her bed is together and ready for mattress and bedding; she has a dust ruffle and valance (thanks to Great Grandma B); and we are looking for a dresser, changing table, or something like that to finish things in the furniture department. I have to wash all of her clothes, sheets, etc. Right now I’m trying to figure out exactly what detergent to use; if anyone has any suggestions, let me know.
We’ll keep you posted!
You were asking about the detergent to use for Little’s clothes. A lot of people use Ivory Snow or whatever it’s name is, but I have always heard that unless you use a really harsh detergent on your clothes that you can use the same one on the baby’s clothes. They are up against your clothing etc. anyway. You will be able to tell if she has a reaction to it, but most likely will not. SHe may also have a reaction to any of the milder detergents you use, so use whatever gives you peace of mind.
