30w+5 here. When are y'all packing your hospital bags?

Question

Had a scare the weekend and ended up in labor & delivery. All is well with my baby girl. I was thinking if I had to deliver, that I didn't have anything prepared. When are you ladies  packing your hospital bag?

Answer

I’ll be packing next week at 32 weeks

Answer

My 1st pregnancy I packed it when I was 35w and he didn’t come until 39. This time around I have preeclampsia so it’s been packed since 2 weeks ago. I’m now 32w.

Answer

Trying to have mine done by 30 weeks. But that's on Monday so I don't think I will 🤣🤣 but I do have most stuff ready for it!

Answer

I just thought the same thing today. I am packing over the next few days just in case! I’m 32 weeks today.

Answer

My rule is to have everything done by 36 weeks.

Answer

I’m 29 weeks currently and plan to start packing it around 32 weeks that way it’s ready just in case I need to transfer to hospital (having a homebirth).

Answer

Packing at 32 weeks. Currently 30 weeks

Answer

I am packing mine at 33 wks I’m currently 30w+2 days

Answer

I'll throw a "just in case" hospital bag together (having a home birth) around 35-36 weeks. This is my third. First came at 25 weeks, so wasn't even close to prepared, second came at 39+2, so my baseline is all over the place.

Answer

With my first I was packed at 34 weeks and didn’t deliver until 41+2 🙈 but I have everything I need as of this week for Bub and me in hospital so I will be packing it as soon as I have washed the clothes for him 😊 Not that I will be taking heaps of clothes for him - last time he just wore a hospital singlet, nappy, and a hospital swaddle the whole 5 days we were in there. Definitely worth it packing when you have 9-10 weeks left I think - because anything can happen!
