Back at Home: Preparations For Being Gone

Before the big day nears, create a plan that ensures things around the house are taken care of when you’re welcoming a new member to the family. If you have other children or pets, make sure to set up plans for where they can stay in any scenario. Have contacts on hand for this that can respond at a moment’s notice (grandparents, aunts, uncles, etc.). Ask someone you trust to collect your mail and water your plants. If possible, pay bills in advance for peace of mind. With the chaos of delivery day, consider creating a phone tree that engages family members to help spread the good news. 

Checklist for the House: Do You Have These Items Covered While You’re Gone?

  • Pets
  • Plants
  • Mail
  • Lawn care/Sprinklers
  • Security system
  • Thermostat

Conclusion

Delivery day can be a swarm of emotions and craziness, but being prepared ahead of time is a big help for mom, her partner and loved ones.

Enjoy the big day, and relax in the peace of knowing what you need is in your bag.
