To be honest I haven't packed mine yet! But I've put the majority of what I need together in the cot and it will be my husbands job to pack it at the necessary time!
I think pack it when you feel ready to, I'm useless at packing so always get my husband to organise stuff like this and at least he will know where everything is when I'm in too much pain to care!
I've got my bag, and most of the stuff to go in it - and I will concentrate on packing it when the workmen have gone next week!!! But then I'm the type of person that packs and repacks a million times for a weeks holiday!!!
I had all the stuff for mine from around 28 weeks because I had a friend go into labour early and she was adamant I should be prepared. It was packed properly at about 35 weeks and now we're all ready to go.
I REALLY need to do mine, had planned on doing it last week or the week before as my DD was born at 34 weeks. Last week came and went and I still haven't done it! Think I might make a start................x
I had mine all packed and sitting ready to go from about 30ish weeks, then remembered I hadn't washed LO's clothes yet, so its now sitting half packed in my living room. I really should get to it soon lol x
I had mine done by about 33 weeks but had to go through and check it all last night and practically re-packed it all over again as had forgotten stuff.
I started gathering bits and bobs, and then went a final shop and got the rest of the stuff on my list and packed it at about 35 weeks, and have packed all babies stuff in the free changing bag from boots, that can stay in the car and my bf can pop out and get it.cxx
I packed it before 28 weeks, but then when I spent a night in hospital I realised that there was stuff I needed to add due to a miserable night in hospital. I now have 3 bags packed and waiting.
I've had mine packed for about 5 weeks now, convinced LO was going to make an early appearance, but I'm still sat here pregnant! Glad I'm organised with it though!
I started mine at 30ish weeks just got to pack oh a spare change of clothes but might leave that as my spare bits bag in his car (spare pj's for me more nappies etc) u think I'm done except camera and phone!
My MW is coming around tomorrow to have a birth chat with me and go through what i need to bring, so i shall start packing it then and get it all done next week. I expect i'll have to go shopping for a few bits and pieces.
