Answer

Answer

I packed mines at 32 weeks. I packed 2 onsies for baby, outfit for his hospital pics, going home outfit. As for myself, I packed my charger, toiletries and going home outfit. (Sweatpants & T-Shirt). I chose not to bring any undies or PJs because I'd prefer to use theirs in case I bleed heavy and I dnt have to bring diapers, snacks or vaseline because they provide plenty

Answer

Ill be 32 weeks in a couple of days and i have most of the stuff for the babies bag but it isnt washed and packed yet, and ill be starting to get bits for my my bag over the next couple of weeks like sanitary towels some black underwear something to deliver in a night shirt that opens at the front for feeding. Ill be packing a couple of pairs of leggings and some long vest tops. I aim to have them both packed and ready by about 35 weeks and i think thats about average but im not sure.

Answer

I've been slowing working on mine the last few weeks and they are pretty much done now. I'm 35 weeks. For baby I packed 2 going home outfits (different sizes), two gowns, socks, hat, diapers, wipes, pacifiers, swaddle blankets, and burp cloths. In mine I put a robe, 2 nightgowns, nursing tank, 2 nursing bras, a breast feeding kit that I got as a shower gift, comfy nursing shirt and leggings to wear home, chapstick, headbands, and I still need to add my toiletries and flip flops. I'm also going to bring copies of my birth plan and my boppy pillow. Pinterest and the Lamaze website helped me decide what to bring.

Answer

I think it honestly depends on your preference. I'm 31 weeks and our bags have been packed for two weeks and so has the diaper bag. When I was pregnant with my son who is now 2 we packed our bags about the same time just to be prepared! I'm a control freak and like to have everything done in advance so I can be prepared and not freaking out the day I go into labor! It's totally up to you! But I would definitely have it all done by 37 weeks for sure!!!! Hope this helps! Good luck and congrats!!!
