How organised are you? What have you bought/when are you planning to buy things? And when do you intend on packing your hospital bag etc? This is our second child so we already have the pushchair/car seat and nursery furniture etc but apart from that we have not bought anything and feel really unprepared. Last pregnancy was over 7 years ago so feeling like I’ve forgotten what we need to be doing 😂

Due March 26th and all we need now is a cot bed mattress and some newborn hats. Plus milk/nappies/toiletries. We’ve got everything else now.

I go back to work on Friday so will be working 60 hrs over 6 days a week so it was important to me to get things done over Xmas as I think my Sundays will consist of me and the sofa making friends 🙈

I'm due 13th March and hardly have anything. But I'm not worried. There's nothing I can't order online when she's here. We've ordered a travel system and got a next2me cot. And then picked up a few sleepsuits. And that's it!

I'm due April 1st but have a feeling little one will arrive end of March. I have just about everything apart from hospital bag stuff that I'm gonna pack for the end of January just so I know it's done and ready. Maybe I'm OTT but I like to be organised and sorted. I still need to put up the cot and get babies stuff organised and washed etc but i have it all bought.

I'm due 14 March and I have bought the major items - crib, travel system, nursing chair, and changing table. I only have one sleepsuit and one romper so far, so not many clothes yet and absolutely none of the smaller items.

I am 30 weeks now and thinking about packing the hospital bag around 36 weeks, but curious as to what others are doing!

I'm due 26th March. We've got pretty much all the big stuff (car seat, pram, cot bed, changing table and mat, wardrobe, nursing chair, next2me, monitor, breast pump and bottles, steriliser, bath) and the nursery is ready. Started buying a few clothes but nowhere near enough yet but planning on going in a couple of weeks to get some clothes, muslins, etc then just need nappies, wipes, creams etc.

I’m sure with my first I didn’t pack my bag until I was on maternity leave so would have been after 36 weeks and never felt rushed to do it. This time round I feel like baby will come early for some reason so don’t want to leave it too late. But only being 28 weeks it feels far too early.
