At 31 weeks and 6 days pregnant with Baby #2, I'm feeling more useless than ever. My reflexes are slow. I am less mobile. I am starting to feel sore in places that should've gone sore a few months ago.
Last Friday, I had my pre-natal check-up. My UTZ showed several placental lakes. I don't know where they came from. I was advised to be more careful with tummy.

I should start preparing the following:
- Baby #2's hospital bag
- sterilize breast pump and feeding bottles
- Mama and Daddy's hospital bag
- crib for baby's arrival
- infant car seat installation
- arrangements for Johann while we're in the hospital
- inquire about hospital rates and availability of Lamaze room
- documents (Philhealth and Marriage Cert)
- master's bedroom (general cleaning, change of curtains, make room for Baby#2's stuff)
- decide on a name
