Pack your hospital bag?

Install the carseat?

Am I way behind on these things?  Everyone is acting like I should have done both of those weeks ago...

    I packed my hospital bag around week 34 (thank god since LO was born week 35)...car seat was installed while I was at the hospital just in time for us to go home, I don't know why you need to have that done so soon.

    I'll probably do this stuff shortly after my shower, since that's when I'll be getting the travel system and other items.  Since I don't know when that is, I don't know when it's getting done.  Ideally, I'd like to have it done by 35 weeks.

    I think I had both things done around 36-37 weeks, just in case K decided to come a little early.

    We did both around week 36.  Thank goodness, since Miss K made her arrival just a week later.

    We installed and got the carseat checked around 34 weeks and then last week we finished packing the bag for the hospital since the dr says he could come at anytime i could relax until those things were complete.

    I packed my bag around 36 weeks. I installed the carseat around 30 weeks I think. It was in my way in the house and I decided the best way to store it was in the car.

    Hospital bag, car seat, and nursery decorations: My plan is to do all these things at/by 36 weeks. 

    36 weeks is my 'OK, it could be any time now' time. haha. I'll probably go 42 weeks, knowing me, but better to be prepared.

    I don't feel rushed to do these things in advance though.

    I am going to pack my hospital bag this week sometime.  As for the car seat.  That probably won't get installed until I have the baby.

    Pack your hospital bag?  I never had mine fully packed.  I figured if I packed it the baby would be late & if I didn't baby would come early & boyyyyy was I right.  It kinda sucked that I slept thru the early labor & didn't have time to completely finish packing & forgot a few essentials (IMO) but I survived.

    Install the carseat?  Believe it or not, this was done about week 37.
