Ok Ladies, I need advice, or something....Im losing my sanity!  I have been at home since Jan 15, and I am not saying I havent loved it...goodness knows I have been working since I turned 16 it was nice to get a break.  However, I am going crazy with nothing to do.

I requested that my baby shower be done early so that I would have "time" to wash everything and put everything together....guess what, that took us all of about an hour.  I am currently cleaning all her clothes, and bedding....

Then Im done. The rest of my house is spotless for the most part, and I cant imagine wasting power (light bill is high enough) to do it all over again. 

I find myself sitting around thinking of Claudia, and trying to figure out things to do that benefit her, but Im all out.

Is it normal to be this anxious about her arrival when Im only 30 weeks...technically Im only 29 weeks, but lets just round up for sanity's sake.

WHAT CAN I DO TO PASS TIME!!!

Well I am almost 38 weeks and getting antsy to meet my little one.

I would say just keep yourself busy, go for a walk, be outside, read a book, doa  craft project, whatever your hobby is. Enjoy your quiet time before baby comes!

OR - want to come clean my house and work for me for a few weeks? Of course the pay is lousy and the hours stink lol

OK, so I know this is totally more of a "guy thing", but can you play video games? Those things waste TONS of time easily.

I wish I would have done a daily journal for myself and Anberlin to read later on down the road. I also wish I would have taken more pictures of my pregnant self and have done a video diary every week or even every month.

Are you an eBayer? Maybe there's some things around the house you don't use or need anymore. You could make some extra cash by selling them on eBay or Craigslist. That takes some time.
 
I used to love to do puzzles in my free time. You could finish them then glue them together and sell them at a yard sale at a later date.

Good Luck!

I write in a journal daily for Claudia to read.
I dont play video games, they annoy me.
My dr has forbidden me to do any type of activity besides being in the house, Im not even allowed outside other than going from house to car....

I am really going out of my mind here yall!!

I really need to find a hobby, maybe I will do some scrapbooking or coloring or something, IDK.  I just need to find something besides losing my mind!!

You can always get started on your baby book early!  Make the templates so that all you have to do is glue in your pictures.  You can do big events like first haircut, first tooth, first bath, first steps, first bath, first trip/vacation, favorite foods, favorite toy...

Or maybe you can work on your family tree.

Or, you can teach yourself how to sew or knit and make some burp cloths, baby blankets, etc.
