Too much to do!

We're now 17 weeks through, and don't seem to have done anything to
prepare! Help! We've had a brief looks at pushchairs, have got a
long-ish list of names, but that's about it. There's furniture to move
around the house (and the house needs tidying/cleaning before we can
do that), decorating to do, shopping to do, money things to sort
out...

And that's without thinking about the pregnancy and birth, which I
guess should really come first. I've registered for NCT classes, but
haven't heard anything yet. I've just found out about someone in
Sheffield who does pregnancy yoga and Active Birth workshops, so I'm
going to sort that out as well. The more I read, the more I'm
convinced that I want a home birth, so there's things to think about
for that - making sure tings are clean, we've got everything we need
etc etc, and of course a birthing plan. Maybe I'm thinking a bit in
advance, but judging by what I've read you can never start too early!

I know there's about 5 months left, but Christmas is in the middle of
that (thinking money and energy here) and I certainly don't want to
leave everything until the last minute.
