Hello! I’m back again with another spreadsheet.
I’ve been on maternity leave for three weeks now, and I think if there was an award for the most nesting ever nested, I would be in contention for first place. For some context, I have the delightful combination of ADHD and OCD, which means I permanently need to be organised but also move through this earth as a tornado. So over the years I’ve found lists, systems and preparation are my best friends. Which means that when it comes to baby prep, I’ve gone all in.
I’ve asked every parent friend I have for their advice and lists, and watched pretty much every nesting YouTube video and TikTok under the sun.
I started putting everything in one big baby prep spreadsheet, with the links for what I need in every room, links for what I need to put in every caddy, and a full baby prep to-do list. Over the last few weeks, it’s grown and grown into what might be my proudest piece of work (it’s close between this spreadsheet and the dayflex flares).
And after so many of you have used the recs spreadsheet I popped on here last week, I thought the least I can do is add this one to the list for any other expecting parents!
So, without further ado, you can find the spreadsheet below. I’d reccomend duplicating it for yourself and moving through the tabs in order, following the to-dos and then ticking everything off once it’s ordered and packed.
All you have to do to get the spreadsheet is subscribe for free below and sign into substack, the link will then appear in this article!
I hope you find it useful! And for anyone not expecting, I’ll be back to normal service next week.
I’ll see you on Tuesday!
