While you're waiting for delivery, design a photo card or simply a beautiful text message to announce the arrival of your angel to friends and family. Then all you'd have to do would be to insert an image of the baby once delivered and you're set.
4. PRE-WASH USING BABY-FRIENDLY DETERGENTS
While it's not necessary to pre-wash all your clothes just yet. But it is a good idea to at least have a weeks clothes pre-washed in baby friendly detergents so that it's one less hassle once your little angel arrives.
5. MAKE A BABY PLAYLIST
Good music can have a calming effect on the mother when she is in labor, so create a playlist that makes you happy and calm. Don’t worry nobody will judge the songs you like even if its Justin Beiber! ;)
