Keep that portable fan in your hospital bag! You’re gonna need it during labor! Lol mama of two and I’m due on the 30th with my 3rd and that fan is a huge life saver!!
One thing you might want is a small wash basin for your kitchen sink to soak dirty bottles/pump parts in hot soapy water. I liked having this for if I wasn’t going to wash things right away so they’re not sitting for hours with milk in them
I second this! My daughter is 14 months and we still use it for her stuff that needs to be washed. I like keeping her stuff separate from ours and then it’s not touching anything else in the sink.
So excited for you to have your miracle baby! My fiancé and I went through infertility treatments as well. Started with a surgery, then about 18 months of TTC on our own and with medications. We ended up having 3 IUIs back to back that had failed. We got out on the IVF waitlist and were expecting a call for May of 2025, but I shockingly got pregnant the cycle after the last failed IUI after only taking letrozole. Our little miracle is due in April ❤ 15 weeks today. To anyone else struggling with infertility, do not give up hope. When you least expect it, it will happen ❤️
Rachel! You’re doing amazing. I’m so excited for you. I was due 10/21 and at 37 weeks 2 days my water broke and I welcomed baby less than 24 hours later! Wishing you the best in these last weeks of your pregnancy ❤.
It took me 2 years and 3 failed IUIs to get pregnant with my girl last year. I cried the happiest tears switching my TTC bin to a postpartum bin. The best feeling until you give birth. ❤
My little girl will be 2 on Dec 31st!! And i watched so many of these type of videos as a first time time mom for research and what to expect. It helped me SOOO much!!! I love helping other new FTM! So excited for you!
OMG i love that you linked your outfit!!! I always love what clothes other people are wearing, even if its a basic tshirt! Please always link your outfits and jewelry. Thanks
Rachel ❤️... So lovely watching you in this stage. The only 'con' that I can think of with using the different brands on nappies at the same time is if baby has an adverse reaction to one, it may be hard to determine which one it is. But you may have zero issues 🙂
I love the Honest diapers. Best quality, clean material product, cute seasonal prints, superior absorbency, my husband doesn’t believe it was even wet if it weren’t for the wetness indicator.
Hi Rachel. Just wanted to pop in to say that ure 1 week ahead of me. Love Ur content. Ure so real n not afraid to be different from other content creators. Love Ur vlogs n really looking forward to more. Love from South Africa
girl i was literally watching your recent vlogs all day so far and now you uploaded 😂❤ can't wait for the baby boy to arrive, excited to know his name, see the lil guy and omg what i'm most excited about is your daily/weekly regular vlogs BUT WITH the baby omgggg, our life's gonna change forever it's going to be with him from there on, crazy to think 🥹💘
"I think I've changed like one diaper in my entire life, so that'll be interesting" is LITERALLY ME!! HAHAHA you're gonna be the best mama bc you already love your baby so much!! AHH I literally can't wait!
I have that tub and it’s really good but I will say it leaks from the seals on the bottom a little so you’ll probably want it in your bath tub anyway! Also it can mold around all the turquoise silicone pieces.
So happy for you Rachel 💕 Time is going so fast! He will be here before you know it:) The glider rocking chairs are awesome! I think most come with a stool. So comfortable for the many hours you spend holding and nursing🤗 Enjoy these final days preparing!
Also related to the diapers I really like the pampers swaddlers for overnights as they seemed to hold a lot of urine (for when baby starts to sleep longer stretches/gets changed less at night)
Eee so exciting!! I highly recommend getting a second car seat base (and mirror or camera) if you can. It made life soooo much easier if we had to take my hubby’s car vs mine or mine vs hubby’s
The pampers swaddles are overall the best as far as softness and sturdiness of Velcro, they also have high absorbency.. but the honest baby wipes are the best
Seeing you next has me so excited for you! Everything you’ve been through to get to this point, it’s so beautiful seeing you get so close to holding your boy!!
If you wrap rubber bands around both sides of wipes they come out one at a time and the more wipes u use it will push package tighter so you know when u low on wipes
My oldest sister just had her third baby this morning, my first niece. Can't wait for my internet sister to have hers(We are baiscally like 5-6 years apart)!! 🥰🥰
One thing I liked postpartum was having padsicles. I even stuck them in my diapers. I made them with aloe, witch hazel, and lavender. They felt pretty nice! Also, I really like my Haakaa BUT when baby gets older and bigger it is very easily kicked off. I believe they make a ladybug one that doesn’t hang but holds less.
Your doing a good job! May God bless this final stretch and have a smooth birth 🙏🏼 I absolutely love watching your videos, they are inspiring and peaceful somehow, it brings me a lot of joy and motivation 🤗❤️
I love your content and I’m so happy to be watching your nesting video (didn’t know what that was until I clicked on it) because I’ve been watching your videos for years now ❤
I also didnt have space for a rocking/glider chair and thought i wouldnt need one, i amazon primed a ready rocker that you can lay behind you to help with the rocking motion bc my back was killing me doing it myself
From what I’ve heard you can take the diapers to target and exchange them as long as target carries the brands!! I definitely get the concerns with the fragrance on their sweet skin 🥲
Yay!! Great work! I can’t believe you did all that in one day, I would have made it through like half of that when I was that pregnant 😂😅 so excited for you guys!
Eeee I’m getting excited for the both of you!! Praying for a safe and normal delivery and a healthy baby 💕 ps: my husband and I LOVE our hatch machine! Such a life saver to put our little one to bed and down for naps. I’ve read somewhere that red light helps baby sleep better because that’s mainly the color they see in the womb. It seems to work for ours!
Have you tried the bumco bum brush it's a applicator for rash cream and sunscreen it's silicone so it wipes off with a wipe and it keeps it off fingers and from under nails❤❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉😊😊😊😊
Loved seeing all the baby clothes & items & your organizational items…great job! You have so much energy! Your face was so funny looking at AJ cuddling Vinny like a baby. I wonder how she will react to baby? Love the books on the shelf & cute art prints, especially the coffee one. The nursery looks great and you have it all ready-what a blessing and relief! I do encourage you to have a sheet or something on that changing table on the dresser…sometimes diapers can be quite messy! Do you have little mittens for his hands so he won’t scratch his face -those tiny nails are hard to trim. The tiny socks are adorable. 😊
Have you tried the bumco bum brush for rash cream so you can apply it while keeping it off fingers and under nails and it wipes off with a wipe . Its amazing for sunscreen to its a lifesaver
Omg so cute when AJ brought in Vinny and was holding her like a baby 😂 im 22 weeks and have 3 kitties, and I just know that our kitties will likely be terrified of our baby for a while 😅 but eventually they will be good buds hopefully lol ❤ wishing you a smooth rest of third trimester and safe delivery!!
I love those Halara shorts! They’ve looked great on you throughout the whole pregnancy. I’m currently 40 weeks 3 days and needless to say nothing fits me anymore 😅 Just put together my postpartum bathroom stuff and I was recommended to get a sitzbath, so if you don’t have one yet I just wanted to pass that along!
Don’t worry too much about the different nappy/diaper brands unless you notice your little one has sensitive skin. I was given 5 different brands and used all in the first month and my little boy was just fine!
Just came across your channel. As a dad of IVF twins, I'm really happy for you and your husband! Congratulations! My kids are 2 1/2 now and you're in for a fun (and crazy) ride! 😃
Girl I’m in the same boat! 36 weeks prego and just wanted this to be over!! I want to meet my baby girl ❤ I just set up her little tummy time mat and her bouncer today 😊
TAKE THE STROLLER FAN IN YOUR HOSPITAL BAG!! It is a life saver while in labor and postpartum in the hospital. The fan and my chap stick were the only two things I used in the hospital and I do not regret it. Post partum sweats are a thing :(
The pampers I got for my shower… the smell is so strong I can’t even. I prefer non scented and that’s what I registered for. I’ll probs go to target and switch them out.
100% agree with you. Would recommend swapping the pamper swaddlers for unscented diapers. My son broke out in a rash and once a pampers pack is opened you have to file a claim with them vs returning at the store to get a refund..it was so annoying.
6 months pregnant here and I’ve been waiting for this video so I can get some nursery inspo!! I love how you organize. I need those drawer dividers for sure 😁 When baby boy gets here, can we get a newborn essentials video?? 😄😊
hi!! I just wanted to comment on your rocker - first, I love that style lol my great grandmother had a similar one when I was young! Second - I have a glider with all the nice cushions and yes I love it, but I’d get comfy and start dozing off while nursing baby if I was extra tired in it 😂 if I were to make a second purchase for a new one, I’d probably go for a “no frills” style rocking chair
I already see dad spending 30 min looking for those shorts that were on the hanger under the shirt, and then yelling ‘baaabe where are the shorts’ across the whole house😅
You are doing so good sticking to the basics for clothing🎉most people get soo excited about newborn clothes and baby is growing out befor they can wear the outfits👍trying out different brands of diapers is a good thing too, you'll find your favourites! Just please put a cover of some sort on you changing mat, imagine yourself being laid on a cold plastic surface...😅
If I remember correctly, the bottles are only sterilized for 48 hours so I would run them through a quick cycle on the dishwasher before you use them just to be safe!
Yes multiple diapers is good! With my daughter, Huggies worked best. My son, pampers or Huggies worked. But I tested about 10 brands before coming to that conclusion! You just never know
The hand me downs does your sister remember where she got the orangeish and black striped onesie? Im trying ti find one because my boyfriend has one from when he was a baby but is falling apart and we really want to do have a side by side baby pictures with it!!!
Never use scented love, tape that box up and exchange them. My babies butt HATED any scents. And becareful with wipes even “sensitive” wipes can have scent. Always pick “unscented”.
Congrats to you and your family I haven't seen someone beautiful glowing with your cute baby bump what brand of diapers are you going to use Pampers or huggies or luvs wish you and your family happiness

Bathroom drawers changing over from ttc to post partum is such a blessing ❤🙏🏻 so happy for you guys
Watching you organize your old TTC drawer was bittersweet 🥹 So excited for your new chapter being a boy mom is so much fun! 💙
Keep that portable fan in your hospital bag! You’re gonna need it during labor! Lol mama of two and I’m due on the 30th with my 3rd and that fan is a huge life saver!!

I agree was very helpful.
I second this! My daughter is 14 months and we still use it for her stuff that needs to be washed. I like keeping her stuff separate from ours and then it’s not touching anything else in the sink.
Yess!! I agree it’s super helpful
Or just rinse them out before setting them aside
This is helpful to have! I honestly got one from the hospital that I still use from time to time LOL
So excited for you to have your miracle baby! My fiancé and I went through infertility treatments as well. Started with a surgery, then about 18 months of TTC on our own and with medications.

OMG i love that you linked your outfit!!! I always love what clothes other people are wearing, even if its a basic tshirt! Please always link your outfits and jewelry. Thanks
I cried! I was having difficulty conceiving same as you before you got pregnant and now I’m 12 weeks now with my iui baby. Onto my 2nd trimester ❤❤❤
Rachel ❤️... So lovely watching you in this stage. The only 'con' that I can think of with using the different brands on nappies at the same time is if baby has an adverse reaction to one, it may be hard to determine which one it is. But you may have zero issues 🙂

I have that tub and it’s really good but I will say it leaks from the seals on the bottom a little so you’ll probably want it in your bath tub anyway!
Also it can mold around all the turquoise silicone pieces.
Also for the breast pump make sure you measure yourself for the right flange size!
I’m so so so excited for this next chapter of your lives Rachel 🥹🫶🏼
What a turn of events😭♥️ may God continue to bless you all! Also, lol at “and his basic tees” love it
So happy for you Rachel 💕 Time is going so fast! He will be here before you know it:)
The glider rocking chairs are awesome!
I think most come with a stool.
So comfortable for the many hours you spend holding and nursing🤗
Enjoy these final days preparing!
Such a great video to watch! I’m in my prep/nesting stage right now and ideas of what to do are so helpful!❤
I can’t wait to see baby boy! You look amazing!
Also related to the diapers I really like the pampers swaddlers for overnights as they seemed to hold a lot of urine (for when baby starts to sleep longer stretches/gets changed less at night)
Looks like you are well prepared! So excited for you. ❤
You’re ready !!! So excited for you 🫶🏼
❤ you’re doing a great job as a mom already Rachel!
Eee so exciting!! I highly recommend getting a second car seat base (and mirror or camera) if you can. It made life soooo much easier if we had to take my hubby’s car vs mine or mine vs hubby’s
Literally the sweetest nursery!
Baby nursery looks great ❤ , congratulations!
The pampers swaddles are overall the best as far as softness and sturdiness of Velcro, they also have high absorbency.. but the honest baby wipes are the best
Everything looks beautiful!! Now your all set for baby ❤😊
Seeing you next has me so excited for you! Everything you’ve been through to get to this point, it’s so beautiful seeing you get so close to holding your boy!!

awww congrats! thats so special
I’m due in January! can’t wait until my shower passes in November so I can nest just like this!! 🩷 baby girl on the way for me!
One thing I liked postpartum was having padsicles. I even stuck them in my diapers. I made them with aloe, witch hazel, and lavender. They felt pretty nice!
Also, I really like my Haakaa BUT when baby gets older and bigger it is very easily kicked off. I believe they make a ladybug one that doesn’t hang but holds less.
Ooh i need the ladybug, i use the my brest friend pillow and he is constantly hitting it
Your doing a good job! May God bless this final stretch and have a smooth birth 🙏🏼 I absolutely love watching your videos, they are inspiring and peaceful somehow, it brings me a lot of joy and motivation 🤗❤️
Thank you so much!!
Congrats on your new journey! That baby is lucky to have you and you to have him ❤ all the best to your family (:
The nursery looks amazing!!! 💙

yessssss!!
@@RachelVinnand thank you for pointing out the swaddlers being scented. I’ll be taking those off my registry!!
It all looks amazing!
Oh you did the cart...amazing!
I didn't have a nursing chair either...mainly fed sat up in bed anyways 😊
Soo happy for you dear❤
Being induced on the 11th. Watching this video to help myself with motivation for last minute stuff😅
So excited for you!!
I'm due November 8th. I am so excited, first time mom of baby girl. We're pretty close for delivery
It was such an beautiful incredible vlog Rachel 💕💕!!! I enjoyed it alot... thank you for making my day😀.. lots of love to you✨

Great video! Stay safe with the approaching Storm. We are in West Palm Beach ✌🏼 ❤
Glad you're just getting minimal stuff and not trying to have every single thing that every other influencer mom has
You look pretty and your a good mom to your baby boy.
Best of luck Rachel ❤
I noticed no 0-3 month clothes. They’re usually in that longer than newborn!
Waaay longer
if you dont open the diapers, you can take them to walmart or target to get a gift card in return, no receipt needed
I would love to know what booster seat that is, its so neutral and cute!
Oh my gosh, I cannot wait for the long awaited king to arrive! ❤ by the way, where is Roman?
Don't forget to make a self care chart so you know you can make time for yourself
Super happy for you 🩵
Are you and your family safe? Sending love from the UK and thinking of you all in the hurricane
Love you all!❤
I already see dad spending 30 min looking for those shorts that were on the hanger under the shirt, and then yelling ‘baaabe where are the shorts’ across the whole house😅
Hahahahhaha
No because this is giving me baby fever 😭
hehehe
No really me too lmao
Waiting to see this little nugget
