Has anyone else gained sickness as they’ve gone into their third trimester?? I never suffered sickness, just nausea🫣

Less than 10 weeks to go for me now and I’m just wondering when is a good time to start really preparing everything (washing all the clothes, packing bags etc.)? I don’t want to be too eager! Also is anyone planning on batch cooking for when baby arrives? We are all nearly there now girls! 👶🏻

I’m a FTM and just looking for some reassurance if possible! I was told by midwives that day 3 can be tough, but I think I really underestimated it!
