When ever you feel you are ready to put it in there. I packed the hospital bag the night before I went into labor(my due date) I got a sudden urge to pack it so I did and I was in labor a few hours later. And the car seat was installed when we were leaving the hospital. SOs parents came and got us since they took us there and they had it all hooked up and ready for when I was discharged.

If you can feel that he's dropped, I'd get everything ready now...
I haven't finished packing my bag or installed the car seat yet, but it doesn't feel like she's going anywhere any time soon... no contractions, still in my lungs... *sigh* I'm jealous that your baby has dropped lol

he is still in my ribs but i feel alot of pressure low and im already doing the waddle and i have been getting sharp pains in my lower belly when i walk. and my belly has dropped. my DH told me the other day that my belly is looking saggy. haha. but i still have a foot in my ribs almost constantly i think he is going to be long and i already know he is stubborn. he is just like his daddy already! haha.

Whenever you want.

Pack your bag now but don't do the carseat until you're going. Make sure you know how, but don't leave it in.
The reason I say that is because if you're in an accident it needs to be replaced, and I'm sure there's better things to do right now than go out and buy another friggin carseat.
