I'm just barely feeling prepared myself! (I'm not entirely sure I will ever be 100% ready for The Wee to get here).
Just sat down and decided on the vaccine stuff. We read Bob Sears' The Vaccine Book- pretty good resource, if you are looking for one. He's pretty pro-vaccination though, just offers an alternate schedule (which is something). Email me if you want to discuss more (turtlebella [at] hotmail [dot] com...I tend to avoid vax discussions on HipMama cos they can get very contentious! Also, the vaccination forums at Motheringdotcommune (http://www.mothering.com/discussions/index.php) are a good resource.
About a month ago I woke up totally panicked that if I went into labor early I wasn't ready AT ALL. I decided that buying diapers (we are doing cloth), I would feel better! (you know, having input and output covered) ... and so that's what we did-- and I felt a lot better right away.
Rambling now...sorry! Nice blog!
