HOW TO PREPARE FOR A NEWBORN *THIRD TRIMESTER CHECKLIST* Watch This Video If You Are Pregnant! 

I always feel like im studying for an exam with how I binge watch baby videos 🤣🤣 Anyone else ?? Haha!

I’m so anxious that I’m doing all this at 30 weeks! Wishing the best for all the mamas giving birth in 2021! Stay safe!

You’re the ONLY person that has mentioned plans for pets. I have everything else in the works to be ready, but for some reason the dog and lizard completely slipped my mind. 🤦🏻‍♀️

Great list! As a mom of two I just wanted to add for any first time moms, cut yourself a lot of slack! I know in Instagram it looks like the newborn phase is so easy and breezy. For a lot of us it's not! But you'll figure it out and adjust to your new normal. I didn't feel like myself until 7 months in to be honest. I would also reccomend looking up postpartum depression symptoms with your partner so you can both hopefully recognize if these are things you are experiencing. No shame! You are still an amazing mom!

PACK YOUR HOSPITAL BAG was a hugeeee one for me, so right! A few weeks into the third trimester, I had an emergency c-sec so my husband kept going back and forth because there were things I forgot to ask him for; if we were prepared, he’d have more time with us - you just don’t know what will happen in the third trimester. I’m prepping for my second but I wish I found this channel when I had my first - This channel is definitely one of the best, very informative, explained easily, reflects on previous experience and is straightforward

Wow this is most informative video I’ve seen thus far. Baby number two due March 23rd and I def saved this! Best of luck to all the moms delivering 2021!😘

LORD THIS literally is the best video I didn't KNOW almost 70% of these things 🥺 thank you so much!!

This is the video I’ve needed! First time mom. Every time I ask other moms for advice, they all say, “you’ll just know.” “It’ll come natural.” “You’ll figure your baby out.” Which I’m sure is all true, but also some guidance would help! Due May 2021 and I didn’t realize how unprepared I am!

Omg the story about your dog gaining weight kinda made me chuckle 😂 Thank you for this video. I have PCOS and no gallbladder.. had been on birth control religiously and just found out I was 8 MONTHS pregnant!! Such an exciting time and surprise. I truly didn’t know I was pregnant since I was told it was impossible and I always had a rumbling in my tummy due to no gallbladder .. I’m so excited to be a mom soon but taking a crash course in what to expect! God bless you all ❤

34 weeks unplanned pregnancy . First time mom. Very scared and nervous.. but also excited to meet my son.. I’ll make it work . I’m excited to prepare I’ve been up all night thinking about what to do. but worried about financial problems and no family or friends to help… it’s hitting me lately how close I am . I hope I can do this . This video got me more happy and excited and optimistic thank you

I echo what many others are saying. This video is fantastic, and so incredibly informative! I’m 35 weeks. I have been scrambling to get organized before baby arrives, but I have felt clueless and unsure of what to do. Your video is jammed packed with great information and you laid it out so clearly. I know this has helped many first time moms, including myself! I will watch again and take detailed notes. :) thank you so much! I’m so grateful!

I'm 23 weeks along with my first, and this video is one of the most helpful ones I've seen so far!

35 weeks tomorrow and watching now. pray for me!

I’m a ftm & not due until august but I’ve been BINGING baby videos. I’m just so nervous 😭 thank you so much

My husband thinks I was crazy for purchasing a breastfeeding course but it helped me a TON. I don’t think I would have been able to breastfeed my daughter if it weren’t for that course. It even helped me create my birth plan so that I did have a positive breastfeeding experience from the start. It’s so important to know what you want in the hospital and be able to confidently tell the doctors and nurses what you want. I’m expecting baby number 2 now and I feel super confident and I’m excited to create my birth plan again. :)

Saw this video in my second Trimester and I cannot thank you enough. This is the most Informative and Real video out there. Baby boy is here and is three months old. I had to come back and say THANK YOU!!! HUGS ♥️

Here watching the video for my baby that will be born in April 2024 😍

I’m due March 9th and I’m so scareddd😂 I wish all you other mommy’s a safe and happy birth and baby💗💗✨

100% agree about researching baby sleep/feed/cues. I prepared SO much about what to buy and what we needed but nothing about what to do once baby got here. Taking Cara Babies was a life saver

I took my son to the grocery store by myself for the first time when he was like a month old and I called my husband at work in a panic because I couldn’t figure out how to get his car seat out of the base 🤣. And I was also someone who prepared in all the wrong ways - researched heavily about all of the “stuff” that we needed instead of looking into how to actually care for the baby. Breastfeeding was so so hard for me and I wish I had already picked out a lactation consultant & a dentist to help with his tongue tie, etc so I didn’t have to worry about researching while exhausted. Another piece of advice I wish I had was to arrange for help not only for when the baby is first born but for when your partner goes back to work (if that’s your situation). My mom took off the week my son was born to help us but my husband was still home and we were doing ok, so I think next time I’m going to ask her to take off the week that my husband goes back to work.

I don't like or comment on videos often but I just had to say I love how just direct you are. Great information, to the point, i got enough of your story to understandthe importance of your point without feeling the need to skip 5 minutes at a time. Great video.

This is probably one of the most helpful videos I’ve come across especially as a first time mom

Love this video I’m 35 weeks and binge watching videos like I’m mentally preparing to take an exam 😂 Super helpful thank you for the great content !

I'm due august 2021. Only 1 week and i'll be entering the third trimester. My son and my little girl are like 8 years apart. So it's like starting all over again. I'm so glad I came across this video. Just so I can have a checklist..

Randomly came across this! THANK YOU SO MUCH for taking the time to make this. Was super thorough, detailed and extremely helpful ! Very grateful for this information. I am due with baby #1 April 22 and I can't tell you how refreshing this is and how relieved I am every time I come across such great information to help in being more prepared listening to stories from other mama's who have been there and done that! I pray this continues to reach the masses as this is very valuable information ! Much Love to you Alliy !!

I will be in my third trimester next week, this was crazy helpful!! I feel so unprepared and nervous for my first baby, and this laid out a lot of things I need to do. Thank you so much!!

31+4 today and feeling grateful for these RU-vid videos. I have a mom and MIL who are the ones giving me the most (somewhat un-useful) advice. Aka they often say the opposite thing as each other. I’ve come to realize that different things work for different women and babies and that I just need to reassume control of my nesting prep. Thank you for listing so many things that most people don’t talk about!

Watched so many of these, currently pregnant with my third and this has been the best and most accurate for prepping for baby. I needed a refreshers course 😊 Thanks for sharing.

This video is the most helpful thing ive seen my entire 31 weeks of pregnancy!! Literally, thank you for making these!

I'm due in August!! I'm excited.

Alliy thank you for your insightful video and good luck with your growing family. As a first time Grandma, I found your tips and stories truly helpful. It’s been 31 years since I brought home our daughter and things have changed! You have given me ways to help that same daughter as she prepares to have her first child. Really good advice. Thanks again! 🥰

This was so well done! I love how you addressed questions we should know the answers too but didn’t give us the answers so WE WILL go hunt down those classes/information. I’ve been watching bby videos for months now (literally 2-5 a day 😅😂)and this is the first one in over a month that actually addressed things I hadn’t thought of or come across yet. Thankyou! 😍

This video was fantastic. One of the most helpful I have seen so far. Expecting my first baby in 2 months and super thankful for this! Fabulous!

I am first time mom .. this is what I exactly need .. thank you for sharing

New subscriber here & FTM. I’m due in a week and these tips were super helpful! Super nerve racking being a FTM especially with the limited in person resources due to covid restrictions. Good luck to all you new mamas!!

Ummm this is the best/ most informative prep video I have seen! Thank you!!!

Baby girl coming March 2021... it's been 6 years so definitely watching this to refresh 💫

I’m due April 7th and this video is so helpful! Thank you! Wishing all moms who are approaching their due dates with a safe delivery! 💕

I'm due March 30th, I've been researching everything I can get my hands on since 15 weeks. You bring up some very important and valid points that I've not yet thought of.

I am currently 30 weeks pregnant with twins & honestly I found this video so relevant, helpful & extremely informative! Thank you mumma for sharing ! 💯 I will Definitely have your video saved so I can do a checklist type thing 😍😍

This is fascinating. Im 17 weeks pregnant with my first and so many of these things I've NEVER thought about. Im glad I still have time to look into all of this, cuz boy i know id end up clueless and freaked out lol. Thank you for so much valuable info!

Another thing that goes along with the car mirror and car related is a window shade! I've heard a lot of people regret not installing some sort of shade if you have your baby in the summer or a sunny day. Hopefully this helps expecting mamas

Thank you for this list! FTM due mid March! I found your channel at the beginning of my pregnancy, and have been researching/ preparing everything as I am now in the third trimester!

Best preparation video I have seen so far, and I have watched a lot of these. Thank you xx

I watched this when you first posted it (I'm subscribed and love all your videos) and now I'm back rewatching it because I'm in my third trimester!!! 🤰🏻

This is the video I've been looking for! I've watched so many of these and none of them have shared these types of tips, most just share products but not how to prepare and what to do, so thanks for that!😁👏🌸

I am so thankful for this upload! I am a first time mom and scrambling to get my self prepared enough for this new journey in my life thank you so much this video was so Informative! ❤

I have a 13 month old and I'm vegan as well, before I had him I made vegan lasagna, Shepards pie, and soups to freeze 😊 I also wish I researched more on feeding. I 100% wanted to breastfeed but he wouldn't latch and I was so overwhelmed by all of a sudden having to figure out everything about formula feeding.

I added to my checklist: Get ready all the paperwork that the baby needs before labour, and know what paperwork have to be done after born. (Maybe there will be more documents to get done in one country than another. Or if the case is that the baby is going to have a double citizenship.) It is included here all that has to do with benefits, maternity leave...

SO helpful!! I’m 29 weeks tomorrow and feeling underprepared already so this was everything I needed to get on the right track to feeling confident and prepared when baby gets here ❤️

I am literally taking notes! Everyone I talk to just kinda says I will be fine and " figure it out". So happy that you made this!

I'm only 17 weeks pregnant, with my first child. This is exactly the video I was needing . Thank you so much!

This was so amazing to watch, I literally took two pages of notes. I’m in my second trimester. I am so lucky to have found this. You seem like a great mom. I’m subscribing for more tips and help cause I am a first time mom

Thank you so much for this video and the resource links im so excited to use! I feel more confident! Im 30 wks having my first and im so overwhelmed and anxious but after watching your video and using your resources i feel so much better. ❤😁

This was awesome thank you, definitely a video I saved to watch again later as I’m due early April with my first baby. So much to think about!

I shared this with my daughter who's due in June. Great advice!

Of all the baby prep videos i have watched- this is the best. Thank you so much 😊

Wow, this was INCREDIBLY helpful and useful! I’m currently 31 weeks and definitely hadn’t thought of several of your tips! Sharing with my husband and two friends who are also pregnant! 🤎

This was such a helpful video.. I am the first time mom. I wrote down everything on the to do list that you mentioned in the video and I feel so much more prepared to tackle this before baby arrives!

Great video thanks a lot I have due in July and this my 1st baby will prepare everything needed thanks a lot

Such a helpful video! Thank you! 28 weeks with my first and while I’m so excited, I’m so nervous! ❤ Definitely overwhelmed by all that needs to get done in the next 10 weeks or so.

Really good advice in this video! I'm expecting my third this summer and I completely agree with you.

This is my 5th baby, and your video is so informative! ABSOLUTELY LOVE IT!!!❤️

Not all heroes wear capes. Lol thank you for the valuable information, doll!

THANK YOU so much for this video!

I just wanted to say thank you! I greatly appreciate this video so much. I'm due in about 5 weeks and my brain feels so scattered with everything I still need to do.

Can’t believe your already preparing for baby girl’s arrival your pregnancy flew by!

Thank you so much for covering such a comprehensive prep list.

I love this video! Thank you! I’ve been working on getting all of these things done!

I want to take a personal day from work today and just do all of this. This is immensely helpful and I felt confident before the video but now I’m like ohhhh I didn’t think of that. 🙃

Your videos are VERY HELPFUL!!! Thank you sooo much for making them ❤️❤️❤️

I’m due January 26th and I’ve been freaking out (internally) worried that I’m not prepared. This helped so much! Thank you 💕

This was super helpful. Things I didn’t think of or heard of. Thank you.

Thanks for sharing! Just hit the 3rd trimester and very helpful!

That’s a perfect check list ever! I am still in my second trimester but I’ll follow your tips for sure

Your videos are so helpful! I'm taking so many notes so I can be prepared for baby this winter.

These are all fantastic! I would add "find a pediatrician prior to birth" as well.

This video was so spot on, if only I would’ve known half of these things before I had my daughter last April 🥲

Omg I can't believe how many good points you made that I totally would never have thought of. Like don't keep the carseat in the car beforehand just in case you get into an accident, or to sterilize pump parts. Pregnancy brain has me totally fried. Thank you so much.

Wow, what a great list! This will be my 2nd baby. This was incredibly helpful!!

Thank you! I feel like this was very practical as compared to the typical things I find on other videos. It helped me a lot. 🎉

This is the most helpful video for me as a second time mom! I did little preparation (like very little) for first baby and it was so hard! I’m going to read a few books and prep much better this time and your tips were so helpful! Thank you!

Thank you for the postpartum advice. Been thinking about baby list that I forgot about the self-care part. This video is awesome! thank youuu!

This was a great video! So many things I need to look up. Thank you!

Hi, thank you for this! Do you have this checklist in a written format? It's so thorough, in love it.

Such an amazing video!!! Thank you so much I am taking notes and plan to rewatch again closer to my due date

That was super great! I have added some to-do's in my prep spreadsheet :)

Im literally 16 but I love these kind of videos 🤷🏾‍♀️

This is my third baby and I'm learning from you/being reminded of things I totally forgot! Thank you!

I’m two weeks into my third trimester. Thank you for this!

First off- new subbie! This video was the truth! This is exactly what I was looking for in terms of content. I had a baby 12 years ago so everything is new. I feel like everything should be intuitive since I’m a second time mom, but honestly, I simply don’t remember everything, plus, my breastfeeding journey was horrible and only lasted about 3 months last time. I really want to get better sleep etc., especially since I’m 35 now and not the young woman I was when I had my son 12 years ago. I know the key to that is prep and research. We didn’t have all these resources 12 years ago, and I didn’t have the budget to attend a million child prep classes (I did lamaze at about 32 weeks, and read What to Expect When Expecting, but that was about it). I remember being exhausted all the time, and I cut off all my hair (its waist length, curly, thick and very time consuming). I just want to get as much knowledge as I can early on, and now that I can afford a lot more I want to give my child the absolute best thats out there (as long as it makes sense ie: I’ll be renting the Snoo, no need to buy it since its my last child, etc.). Ok, my rant is over lol. Thank you so much!

Fantastic video - thank you so much for this checklist!

A lot of really good info! Im due in 9 weeks and as a first time mom these videos have been so helpful

Thank you so much! Due in a week or two and will scramble to get a couple more things you mentioned ready. So helpful! Hope all is well with you and baby #2!

When breastfeeding follow babies hunger cues. Feed on demand. Know if baby is wanting to nurse constantly it's normal and it's how baby builds your supply. When baby is wanting to nurse constantly it's called cluster feeding. There are a bunch of breastfeeding videos here on RU-vid. There are also IBCLC (international board certified lactation consultant)

I’ve got a 6 day old baby and I searched up apps to track his sleep, I found Huckleberry and it’s been fantastic! Especially throughout the night I put the timer on so I can see how long he sleeps for, that way I don’t have to calculate the time!

For my second pregnancy, my sister camped out on my couch for 3 weeks, just so my older daughter was being taken care of, and because of Braxton hicks, we didn't know when I would be in labor. So thankful ❤❤❤

I’ve just started my 3rd trimester and I found this very helpful THANK TOU ❤

I’m due May 9th and this is SO helpful! Thank you for sharing your thoughts ❤️

Thank you so much! I’m 23 weeks and I’m planning ahead of time and researching now!
