Yikes...I need to know too!!

I packed it toward the end of my 36th week I think.

I dont think there is any "right" time to do it...I started packing it last week and have a list of items I still need to get...I plan to get them tomorrow. So, I hope to have the majority of it packed here in a few days!

I packed the majority of it yesterday, now there is just a few odds and ends to go in it.

Maybe I'll do this next weekend (almost 38 weeks). I am usually better about planning and lists and stuff!

winterOT · May 2010

I had my list made of what I wanted by about 36 weeks or so, but didn't actually pack it until we were heading out the door (I took the pillow from my bed that I slept with nightly thus the last minute packing!) With this DC I honestly plan to pack the night before (scheduled c-section though!) Sorry

prob for the past month, but most of the stuff I wanna bring I am still using or won't pack until the last minute. dang...I should make a list or something!

Last Monday (37.5wks).

katcarls · May 2010

I just packed mine today but I don't think there's a specific time you need to do it. I also put a post it note on my bathroom mirror listing all the things we need to grab on our way out the door.

I just got little ones take home outfits ready. I packed two... 1 newborn and 1 0-3 month. We just don't know how big he'll be. My stuff is set to the side ready to be stuffed in a bag. I am still using my everyday stuff.

39 weeks

LonghornNAggie · May 2010

Made a list a week or so ago... plan on packing either this weekend or next weekend. Have to buy a few things.

gocards1 · May 2010

I haven't yet. I probably will next Wednesday, the day before my c/s.

Ditto this.

Noisemaker · May 2010

Packed what I could today, and have a list of stuff that needs to go in last minute (toiletries and electronics).

Maria Agnesa · May 2010

Hahaha... well yesterday... after I went to the hospital for some early contractions that turned into false labour! I have LO's stuff ready to go and I just have to add my things!!

ToBeMcInerney · May 2010

I have a stack of stuff in the nursery that needs to go in a bag but I just haven't dug the bag out of the closet yet. There are still a couple more things I want to get before I really start packing it. Instead of bringing my own toiletries I am just going to buy the travel size stuff from Target that way I can throw it in there and not worry about it packing those things.

jknigh8 · May 2010

Beginning of my 38 wk when I started having really strong BH that freaked me out. Of course now that it's packed.... nothing

This is my plan, as well. Boy, we're smart! Wink I really don't want to have to worry about what to grab on the way out the door.
