Hospital Bag... When to pack?

[Lau]

Well, I'm 30 weeks tomorrow (where the hell has that gone?!? Haha)

When did you all start packing your hospital bags??

I like to be organised just in case, but I don't wanna jump the gun when nothing could happen for about 10 weeks yet!!

What do you all think?? Xx

I think I may just start buying bits from now. Havnt bought anything yet as I've been too preoccupied with things for baby!!

I did mine the other day, around 35 weeks. It took me about ten minutes lol! I was more excited about buying new slippers and big pants haha yay! X

 

[Clairabelle]

My apps say from about 32 weeks but I've also heard from 36 - think I'll wait til 36 weeks mainly because I still haven't got half the stuff yet lol and also need to wash baby's stuff. I'm rather disorganised tbh and can remember in my previous pregnancies actually packing while I was in labour :-D xx
