Aww bless! Well it's probably just a bit of anxiety that everyone gets before any big change or event, and yours is a pretty massive event! Your mum will probably help you loads with the new baby and your daughter, I imagine? Tell her to get her act sorted out with moving house! Hope everything goes well 
Ive heard that the best way to combat or avoid sibling jelousy is to include the other child with the birth process and care of the baby as much as possible. Like giving her simple tasks such as fetching a sponge when the baby is being bathed, or passing you lotions or creams during nappy changes. Apparently it makes them feel involved and asthough they are an important part of the babies life.
It sounds like a pretty good idea to me, although obviously I dont have any children so Im not sure how that would pan out in reality.
Good luck with everything, I hope you can get your house and everything else sorted in time for the babies arrival. I also hope the birth isnt too horrid.

First, congratulations on the new baby coming. And good luck with the birth!
As someone said above, maybe put your daughter in her own room from tonight on so she gets used to being in her own room and then when she becomes a big sister, just keep her involved in everything going on and make sure she doesn't feel excluded, which I'm sure you won't! If people bring presents for the new baby, then make sure you give something to your daughter as well so she doesn't feel like the new baby is getting all the attention that she's probably used to. I guess just make sure she feels involved as the big sister.
Sorry this is my best advice, don't have any kids so hard to put myself in that situation but I'm sure you'll manage really well.
Although moving house does make it even more chaotic of course!

my now ex sister inlaw brought my older niece a present of the baby, also including her with looking after her lil brother/sister like fetch a nappy ect, sleeping thing i dont know nieces were in there own room from when they slept through the night.
im sure you will cope heard girls are the worse and seems you have coped so far.
as for moving house i know the stress im still unpacking(9weeks later) just do bit by bit take out the stuff you need for yourself,hubby,and lil ones and do the rest when you or hubby have the time dont put to much stress on yourself
Goodluck with labor,moving house and the lil ones

to be honest, the way paternity leave is treated in this country sickens me. it would be seen as discriminatory if a woman was disadvantaged in obtaining a promotion in the same circumstances, yet they can do that to a man?!
a father's role is just as important to a new born baby - and for the mother's well being as well! i suggest you kick up a fuss about this and look into the legal implications - it seriously sounds like gender discrimination to me.

Have to agree with Grace. While i'm not one usually to get worked up at such things, that has annoyed me. Surely it's illegal for them to offer a promotion only if he doesn't take paternity leave? Sexual Discrimination if ever I saw it.

Agreed it is disgusting, but I think taking legal action is the last thing on the OPs mind at the moment. In fact that is why it is so bad, because who in their right mind would take on their company at a stressful time like this?
OP, best of luck. I'm certain that last minute jitters are perfectly normal.
Just wanted to say good luck
