When are you going to pack your bags?

I am 32 weeks and I am going to pack my bags this weekend just to get things in order. I went into labor two weeks late when I was pregnant with my son and I think part of the reason was that I felt like I wasn't prepared. I want to feel completely ready this time so I don't go over my due date. If I go over my due date I will have to have another c-section.

Anyone wanting to know what to pack... I wish I would have packed my boppy the last time it would have really helped me feel more comfortable in the hospital.

Re: When are you going to pack your bags?

I started packing at about 32 weeks. I have my list in the front pocket of my bag and have been adding things little by little and checking them off my list as I add.

I didn't want to be overwhelmed packing last minute, but I also didn't want to pack everything too soon bc:

1. I didn't have everything I needed yet.
2. I wanted to pack stuff that I was still using/wearing.

I'm 36 weeks now and probably 80% of the way there, though I packed for a natural delivery and now I'm having a c-section, so I'm thinking I'm going to have to add more clothes.

I'm 33.5 weeks and haven't even thought about it yet. Maybe i will start packing at 35 weeks.

Thanks for the boppy advice.

My baby shower is when I'm 32 weeks. After I get over that hurdle I will consider packing hospital bag.

I started packing around 33-34 weeks because I had pre-term labor. Once that calmed down, I finally finished packing by 36 weeks. Every time I thought I was done putting my bag together, I realized there was something I forgot!

It is good to know I am not alone in thinking about all this silly stuff.
