when did or will you pack your hospital bag!?

posted 21st Jun
LOL. funny little question. like to hear personal experiences. when did, or will you start packing your hospital bag? i have heard soooo many people who packed theirs at like, 30 weeks!!! im like, wow! lol. usualy pregnancy sites say the average time to pack is around 34-36 weeks. i am 34 weeks, although i may start a few things i am not going to pack my bag till about 36 weeks, and even then it wont be done till i am IN labor because not everything can stay in the bag that long. haha, lol. i guess i am very anxious about baby but it seems sooo sill when people pack at like 30 weeks. lol. i am a very organized and like to get things done and be prepared kind of person, and i am also nesting, but i dont have a need to do the bag that early. LOL. when did or will you? also, i am very specific on what i want, and have my list writen out, but some people i know took almost nothing, and others, wayyyy to much HAHA. what kind of things are you bringing? blessings

I had to have a stinking scheduled c-section, so i just got all my stuff the night before. I still had to send my husband out for a lot of stuff, though. Like a sports bra...ha that was interesting. He went to the store by himself, and couldn't figure out what to buy since I normally wear regular bras. A lady asked him what size I was, and he tried to show her by showing her my size on him with his hands! He didn't know since my size had changed so much during my pregnancy. I got a kick out of that...although it hurt like hell to laugh at him.

I'm almost 36 weeks still haven't packed one. With the first baby I was induced packed about 2 hrs before leaving for the hospital and with the second I packed when I went into labor just before I went the hospital. I really should get on the ball a little faster. I just keep thinking I have a lot of time left I guess not really though since baby number 2 came at 37 weeks 1 day. If she come at about the same time that's only next week.

i just got around to doing it last night, and i still have quite a few things left to add. I have actually been packing for the past week and i'm pretty sure i'll end up forgetting something at the last minuite.

I packed mine last weekend...roughly 34 weeks. And I am being induced at 37 weeks. I'm the strange person that actually has a list of what I packed...so here is some of it:
*Pajama pants
*2-3 shirts
*Socks
*4 pairs of panties...extra pair or two in case of leakage after birth
*Sports bra/nursing bra/oversized sports bra...due to possible engorgement
*Hairbrush
*Toothbrush/toothpaste/mouth wash
*Shampoo
*Deoderant
*Shower gel/soap
*Razor...for armpits
*Female wetwipes...a must
*Face wash
*Extra contacts/contact case/contact solution/glasses
*Sanitary pads...the hospital ones are HUGE
*Cell phone charger
*Camera/camcorder/charger
*List of people to call after baby's arrival...brain might not work properly after having your beautiful baby in your arms
*1-2 books/magazines
Sorry for the long list!

I'm past my due date, but being induced this Thursday. I've not packed my bag yet. Guess I better get to that, huh?

I'll be 33 weeks on Saturday. But I am waiting to start packing my stuff until after my baby shower which is on Sunday. I'll probably begin packing around 35-36 weeks just because I am nesting and I like to be super organized and I'm always afraid I will forget something so I like everything to be ahead of time. But, I felt really silly the last time I brought a suitcase to the hospital. Are you guys bringing a duffel bag type thing or a suitcase. And of course, I am bringing my pillow. I don't sleep anywhere without it.
