To close out the series on Prepping for Baby, I’m sharing a checklist of things to remember to do just AFTER the baby is born. There is quite a list of important things that need to be done and if they aren’t written down, the odds of forgetting one are pretty good in that sleep deprived haze :).

  • Well-baby Visit
  • Chiropractic Adjustment
  • Baby blood work
  • baby hearing test
  • Birth Announcements (mailed)
  • New Baby Photos
  • Birth Announcement(s) in newspapers
    • FB/twitter/blog announcement (can you tell I’m a blogger ;D)

 

  • add to health insurance
  • get social security card
  • get a birth certificate
  • open a savings account
  • set a baptism date

And just because I couldn’t think of a better post to put it in — Have some cash on hand if you normally don’t.  People will frequently offer to run to the store for you.   I prefer to be able to reimburse them for whatever they might run to get for me, even if they don’t expect it.
