When to pack Hospital Bag?

Question

When is everyone packing their hospital bag? I am only 26w 4d but the planner in me is starting to wonder if I should do this soon just in case? I'm a FTM, 41 and have Gestational diabetes so I know there is a chance he could arrive a little bit early...just trying to find the balance between being organized/prepared and insane :)

Answer

That's right, I have to pack a bag huh? Been busy doing a billion other things. Thanks for the reminder :)

Answer

You could just make a list of your stuff and post it on the fridge. If something does happen, then  anyone could pack your bag for you.

Answer

I'm 30 weeks and I packed the babies stuff in the diaper bag last week. I'm waiting for my bag for a few more weeks because I use some of the things I want to bring regularly. I have a packing list made though.

Answer

I have babies bag packed, and part of mine. I buy the travel size toiletries for my bag. I bought few comfy gowns to wear also. I'm 30 weeks. I already have pre-term labor issues and placenta problems though. I delivered my last at 34 weeks.

Answer

I plan on packing my bag between 34-35 weeks.

Answer

It's whenever you want to put it together. No right or wrong time.

Answer

I think with my first I did around 36 weeks and plan to with this pregnancy! I'm 28 weeks + 4 days!!

Answer

I've started (I'm 27 weeks). I've got baby's stuff all ready and starting to get my stuff together. I usually wait longer and have always gone past due/been induced, but for this pregnancy, I'm 43, have a thick and short placenta, so if baby's growth slows or stalls at any point, I'd be looking at early delivery or c-section depending on baby. Want it ready in the next 3 weeks.

Answer

I have some of the baby's bag ready I just need to wash her clothes and then it'll be ready. I'll be 28 weeks in a few days and having braxton hicks already so I'll be packing mine soon

Answer

I have our daughters stuff packed, I'll be 29 weeks on Thursday. I'll add my stuff around the middle of January !
