Re: When did you pack your hospital bag?
I just finished packing one week ago at at 36 weeks... such a procrastinator.
Babies can come early so I would say make sure it's done by 35 weeks.

Almost 31 weeks and I am starting now.
So far, I have underwear, socks, nightgowns in there. I will add little by little during the month of december.
I am due 2/2/09, but I want to have this thing packed by early January the latest.

Re: When did you pack your hospital bag?
Probably next weekend. I ordered a bag online from Etsy that I loved that I am going to use for this purpose. Have to pack DH's too!
I do have some of the stuff set aside at least that needs to go into it.
I will be 36 wks on Tuesday!

Re: When did you pack your hospital bag?
Mine was more or less packed ( except for my everyday last minute essentials, blowdryer, brushes etc....) at 32 weeks...Thats only because my gut is telling me, that I may not make it to my 39 week c-section ( since I am having so many bleed issues etc...)

Re: When did you pack your hospital bag?
With DD I was planning on doing it week 37, after I finished up work. I ran around all day Monday picking up stuff and Monday night my water broke!
So, we packed the bag at 11:30 at night on the way to the hospital - I have to say that even though there was more that was on my list to purchase, there was nothing that I found myself really missing.
This time around, I will have a bag ready to go by 34 weeks, just in case.

Re: When did you pack your hospital bag?
36 weeks. that's when they let me off of bedrest, so i figured it could have been any point after that (turned out i lasted until 39 weeks, 4 days).

I actually thought of this myself...........especially when seeing so many moms on here going in suddenly to L&D for an emergency c-section or what not. Do they all have their bags fully packed? I am guessing probably not.
It would probably be a pain, but I still have DH and my family to run home or to the store to pick up anything if I absolutely need it ;).

Re: When did you pack your hospital bag?
I would say 35 weeks.
I wasn't packed, just had a FEW important items (CBR kit, some paperwork, flip flops, grannie panties) nd as you know I had my emergency csection at 36 weeks. I didn't have a hairbrush for 2 days and I had a million knots in my hair. So from experience, I say be ready asap.
It was very hard to tell DH what I needed clothing wise...he wound up bringing me the wrong pants so I was uncomfortable when I didn't need to be. But overall, I made do without anything that I thought I would have needed. We survived.

Re: When did you pack your hospital bag?
I'm going to start today.. .I'm 33 weeks, but I could go at any time. Its kind of hard to do being on bedrest, I'm going to have to tell DH what to put in it.

Re: When did you pack your hospital bag?
I'll do it at 32 weeks or so. I went early with DS, so I want to be prepared just in case I go early again.
