When to pack baby/hospital bag

Question

I'm 30 weeks pregnant, I'm not sure when I should start packing my hospital bags. My first son was born early at 34 weeks an I had absolutely nothing ready when he was born. I want to be ready for anything with this one. Should I start packing now or am I just stressing too much.

Answer

Yepp start packing now just to be safe and especially because you had your first preterm. Just one less thing for you to worry about.

Answer

Met my health visitor for the first time last week and she was shocked I didn't have my bag ready ! Ive got a week off so will start this week with toiletries an my stuff baby will be done once on Mat leave so I can do all my baby washing.

Answer

I bought all new travel toiletries and packed them. As far as the baby's bag It's mostly packed as well as far as bottles, diapers, wipes pacis etc. But other than that nothing else is packed I'll pack the outfits after my last shower on the 28th.

Answer

If it would make you more comfortable to do it now then do it. I have started on mine and baby's because if we have our son sooner than expected the last thing I want to worry about is trying to tell my husband or family member where everything is at. I think it's better to be prepared.

Answer

I'm 30 weeks and have my list of things to pack in my phone so when I'm out and about I can start getting things. I'm not super concerned about it right now, but I like being prepared with my lists!
