Hospital bag?

howa0155 · May 2009

When did you pack yours? I am thinking it is still a bit early for me, but maybe I could start getting a list together. Also, are you keeping your bag in the house or in your car (e.g. if you go into labor at work)?

TIA!

At 35 weeks. I made a list and put things in there little by little I have it here at home I dont work but it might be a good idea to keep it in your car if you do work.?

I started putting things together on the guest bed over a week ago. Good thing, since we were in L&D triage on Wednesday and then they decided to keep me. Most everything I needed/wanted was on the bed for my DH to pack. Other stuff was toiletries, phone chargers, etc.--> things he could easily find and identify.

Even if you don't pack it, start organizing what you want before you need it.

I just started packing my hospital bag tonight! I am keeping it in the house, but I don't drive to work so that is not an issue for me.

Mine is 1/2 packed. Right now it's in the house but I think I'll throw it in the car when I go for my 36 week checkup/growth scan, just in case for some reason I get sent off to the hospital.

I probably will be doing mine in the last 3 weeks. That way I can be ready just incase of him coming early. I am just going to keep it in the house and in a closet. As soon as I am ready to go to the hospital we can just pull it out. If I go into labor someplace my FI could come home after and bring the bag.

I just packed mine tonight. The bag is at home in our bedroom because there are a few last minute things that need to be thrown in the bag, that I don't want to pack until last minute. (Camera, IPod, laptop) It's not really THAT early, I said I was going to pack mine at like 28 weeks and I just didn't get around to it until now.
