What did you do during your last month of pregnancy?

Answer 1

I lay in the back bedroom with the Air Conditioning blasting for a good part of that last month!

Packing your bag for the hospital is a good idea. They tell you you'll look 6 months pregnant when you leave the hospital. NOT TRUE. When you were six months pregnant you were really excited to look pregnant and probably wore cute little shirts to show off your belly. When you leave the hospital "showing off your belly" is not exactly appealing - you feel like Jabba the Hut.

The very best thing I did in my last month of pregnancy is to buy new Pj's (I bought soft men's flannel), a new bathrobe, some new sweats, and some comfy underwear (you'll have to wear a pad for a while so a thong doesn't cut it!), all a size larger than I used to be. Nothing was nicer than to slide into something new & comfy after coming home from the hospital, and trust me, you won't want to look at your maternity stuff for a very long time!

Answer 2

I slepted as much as possible because remember after the baby is born you don't get to as much. I also worked all the way to the end because it kept me mobile and getting some exercise. I spent most of the time preparing the baby room and just waiting for him to arrive. That month felt like the longest month of the whole pregnancy.

Answer 3

I worked until my due date, although I didn't have my baby until two weeks after my last day at work. I won hockey tickets from the radio and the game they were for was on my due date so we went to that. During those last two weeks I would sleep in, make lunch for my husband, that was the first time I was able to be home to do that. I'd take the dog out, hang out with my sister, rearrange things in the baby's room, and I just relaxed and rested knowing I was no longer having to deal with my b*tch boss.

Answer 4

Waddled around eating too much good things, was put on a special diet due to gestational diabetes. Didn't sleep because I couldn't get comfortable. Counted down the days to my due date and wound up having to have a c-section because I was not dialated at all one week before due date. Baby was 10 lbs. 3 oz. at birth. Enjoy your last month.

Answer 5

I took the last 8 weeks off before I had my son. I had all the carpets clean, washed down all the walls, (i'm a neat freak) got the nursery together, slept, went out to lunch w/ friends, shopped and waited for his arrival.

Answer 6

I am in my last month all i do is sleep and clean up theres nothing else to do but wait for the baby to come. I also go walking sometimes to just get out the house plus they say it helps when u have are in labor..

Answer 7

I don't remember! I know mostly working. I was working a full time job, plus my regular part time job. I cut back a bit on the part time one, but I was still doing 3 nights a week. Other than that, just hanging out with my bf, but mostly stuck around home, just in case.

Answer 8

I worked up until I was 41 weeks 3 days pregnant so as little as possible. I did however get my bags for the hospital packed and washed all of her linens so we'd be ready for her arrival.

Answer 9

I was on maternity leave 4 weeks prior to delivering. I cleaned the apartment, shopped, napped (ALOT!!!), reasearched things online and crocheted alot. About 2 weeks prior to delivering i washed all of the bed linens for the baby and packed my bag. Then it was moresleep and shopping until the baby came.

Answer 10

I worked & got everything ready for my daughter's birth. I also fell down about 8 stairs 21 days before giving birth.
