3rd Trimester

At what week did you or will you...?

I will just be bringing one big suitcase to the hospital like I did with DD#1 since it will fit everything in it. With DD#1 I was already on bedrest by now, and had frequent trips to L&D....she was born at 37 weeks, and tried coming for about 8 weeks...as soon as they let me off the meds and bedrest, she was here before I knew it...she definately wanted out!!

This time around, has been very smooth *knock on wood* and checkups have been wonderful, so I think I'll make it closer to full term with DD#2.

At what week did you or will you be packing your bags?

  • 34-35 weeks and since I work at the hospital I'm delivering at, I'll make sure the carseat and all that stuff is in there as well just in case.  I figure there is a high chance of my water breaking while I'm on shift since I spend 12 hours on my feet all night.

     This is me, kind of. I packed a bunch over my winter break and now just throwing random things in. We bought all new toiletries for the bag and my mom gave us both showering pack things for xmas. DH got an adidas and mine was from B&BW. They were in a small bags and fit nicely in.

  • I'm packing mine today (38 weeks 1 day)!?

  • I packed mine between 37 and 38 weeks. Still waiting to go to the hospital!
  • Last time I had mine packed at 36 weeks because we went out-of-town for the weekend, so I wanted to have my bag in the car just in case something happened.

    This time I'll probably wait a week or two longer unless my internals show me progressing early.

  • I'm half way packed (need to do laundry). 
  • Oh God! That's right....*sigh* something ELSE to do! LOL I haven't packed mine but I REALLY should! I had a few contractions last night, a couple bad ones, so....I guess I should throw that stuff in the car.
