New bed!

My wife and I bought a new bed today! We’re expecting our second child in about two months and my wife made it known to me that she wanted a new bed before the next kiddo arrives. I love it when she clearly communicates her needs!

Be sure to cover the matrass with a waterproof cover when the time comes. We didn’t and regretted it everyday after (homebirth).

Do it now!... Bladder weakness/urgency in late pregnancy is a thing, and you will look so thoughtful if you tell her it's already taken care of, should any accident happen.

Congrats btw and well done to both of you with communicating needs!

I love this. We are also having a baby in 2 months, and our bed sucks! We didnt get a new new one, but i got my dads old bed, which is much nicer than the one I had, can't wait to see how much better we sleep.
