Sorted by where you are. Every item marked essential or nice-to-have, and every list ends with what you can skip.
Trimester by trimester: what to do, what to buy, what to skip.
Weeks 1 to 13: the appointments to book, the decisions to make, the few things worth buying, and everything you can leave for later.
Weeks 14 to 27: the energy comes back and the real to-do list starts — the registry, the big purchases, the leave paperwork, and the classes.
Weeks 28 to 40: install the car seat, pack the bag, set up the sleep space, fill the freezer, and finish everything by 36 weeks.
What to pack for you, your partner and the baby — and the long list of things the hospital already has, so you can leave them at home.
Build a registry people actually buy from.
Everything worth putting on a baby registry, sorted into what you need and what you don't, with one honest pick for each.
The two dozen things a baby actually needs in the first three months, and nothing else. A registry for small apartments, second babies, and people who hate clutter.

The first month, on one list.
