๐คฐ๐ถ Pregnancy To-Do List: Navigating the Kenyan Journey! ๐ถ๐คฐ
Hey there, fellow Kenyan moms-to-be! Let's chat about that incredible ride called pregnancy, Kenyan style. When I first found out I was expecting, I was excited and just a tad bit bewildered. ๐๐
You see, my pregnancy journey had its quirksโlike craving chapati at 3 a.m. ๐ฅ๐ But I quickly realized that creating a to-do list was a game-changer. So, here's my Kenyan pregnancy checklist to help you breeze through those expectant months with humor and grace. ๐๐
1. Baby-Proofing Your Space ๐ก
- Because our little one deserves a safe and sound home.
- Are cabinets safely locked?
2. Creating a Cozy Nursery ๐ผ
- Have you chosen a crib, changing table?
3. Stocking Up on Essentials ๐ผ
- Diapers, wipes, baby clothes and bottlesโcheck!
- Baby laundry detergent for those miniature sensitive clothesโcheck!
4. Choosing a Pediatrician ๐ฉโโ๏ธ
- It's never early to find the right health care partner to guide us through this exciting chapter of Kenyan parenthood.
5. Prenatal Classes & Books ๐
- Learning the ropes, Kenyan-style! Are you well prepared for labor, breastfeeding, and infant care?
6. Baby Name Selection ๐
- Our little one's name will reflect our rich Kenyan heritage. Make that list, cancel them out till you find that one that your little one can be proud of.
7. Birth Plan ๐ฅ

8. Support System ๐
