I did mine at 30 odd weeks, goo job too as I needed it at 35 weeks! Think lealea would agree that you want it packed as soon as poss as you can be in hospital anytime from now.

You can't be too early really. It's good to start now and adds bits and pieces as you go along.

with my 1st i packed my bag day after my waters started leaking at 38 weeks, very late i was bad i hadn't even bought nappies and sanitry towels let alone anything else. you would think i would learn, 2nd packed it night before induction at 38 weeks, 3rd husband packed it as i was in hospital at 22 weeks with waters broke, 4th i packed it at 31 weeks after being kept in hospital with they thought going into prem labour again, 5th i apcked bout 35 weeks but still in the hospital i had for got to pack so much stuff it was silly, i had 1 pair of knickers no toiletries etc, so this time i am going to start it soon actually my husband said he will start it this week after me thinking my waters were leaking last night. he got my case out today, will i ever learn

I started mine at 36 weeks, then unpacked it, packed it again, unpacked it and now as i'm going in for induction everything is packed away lol

I never got round to packing mine! Strange thing is though, my plan for Sunday was to wash all the Moses basket sheets and blankets and pack my hospital bag, certainly didn't expect to have my baby so soon!
So my advice hun would be to pack it now while your thinking about it, as you can always add to it or repack it later on!
