Hospital Bag

I'm 27 weeks now, due early November. Is it too early to pack my hospital bag? When did everyone else start packing their bags? Thanks.

It's up to you I guess. I'm 40+3 and waiting for baby to arrive and my bag has been packed since 36 weeks. Statistically you're more likely to have the baby 2 weeks either side of your due date.

I started packing mine at 32 weeks and finished packing whilst in labour (phone chargers etc)

I've been in early labour since Saturday and tbh I could have gone out and bought everything in the last two days, never mind packed it! But you may have a swifter time than I'm having :) had it all packed by 35 weeks but am adding as I go today.

39 here and still got a few things to add, as a FTM I feel like I'm over packing!!

I started packing mine last week when I was 27 weeks. I have been nesting like crazy though and feel the need to get things done, bit hard in summer hols whilst chasing after 2 children.
Am expecting twins though so will probably be here before their November due date.

The baby bag is packed but my labour bag consists of a towel, big knickers, maternity pads and lucozade. Must remember toothbrush and toothpaste this time as forgot it both times with previous dc.
