Hospital bag and baby clothes

[jacksmamx]

Due to have my 2nd baby in August...

Feel like my first pregnancy was all a blur I don't remember ANYTHING 🤣.

I'm 32 weeks now, when did you all start packing your hospital bag and washing all your babies clothes? I can't remember the timeline that I did this with my first. Not sure if it's too early yet...

I've packed a lot of things as I have acquired them so mine has most things in there already, 31+2 now. Will pack baby clothes once I wash them all around 36wk.

I’m 32 weeks and since we had nice weather I decided just to start washing stuff and have now packed our bags too 😂 they’re still sitting open and I will probably wear things out of it before we go but I want to at least have it there with things ready. A lot of people say 36 weeks but I wouldn’t be able to relax knowing if anything happened my partner would be running about the house getting me stuff to wear (god only knows what) 😂

Am now 35 weeks. Packed most of the baby bag but waiting until after 36 weeks to pack my hospital bag as have a scan then to ascertain if I need a c section. If a planned c section I won't need certain things and will know I will be staying overnight.

You can start to write a list, stock up on maternity pads, big knickers now. Want it all ready by 37 weeks just in case

I packed mine the day before my ELCS at 38+6. Not sure I’d recommend leaving it quite so late though. In my defence we had a building project run late and the consultant said it didn’t look like baby was coming on their own anytime soon anyway! And I didn’t wash any clothes except the ones saved from DC1 as they’d been in the attic for 3 years.

I just ordered a prepacked maternity bag from this amazing company and it has just arrived. I love the fact that it’s packed by a Midwife.

I packed mine at 39wks in a game of overdue chicken. I am now 40+6, I lost!!!

This is my 5th overdue baby and I'm being induced tomorrow so I'm not really reflective of what's sensible 😂
