asked a million times - when to pack hospital bag

[FreeButtonBee]

I had twins the last time so timings were slightly different. Am now 28 weeks. When should I pack my hospital bag? All normal, nothing untoward in the pg, just not sure when to start trying to find the newborn clothes and big knickers!

I'm 30 weeks and mine is packed, mainly because the stuff was in bags/hung up all over my bedroom. But better to be organised I guess. Most guidelines say between 34-36 weeks tho

I am coming up 36 weeks and yet to pack mine. . Have most things bought, just need a few items and then to wash new baby clothes!

I packed this week and I am 33 weeks. I don't think there's any harm packING now. one less thing to think about I suppose x

I'm packing my things after 20 week scan and then baby's things once they're viable.
Last time I was taken in at 35 weeks and I'm still annoyed at myself about the bag, it would've taken me 15 minutes!

Just to add some great advice I was given - get out everything you want to take but ask your birthing partner to pack it into the bag for you. That way, when you're in the throes of labour you won't have to try and explain where the things are that you need!
