3rd Trimester

Hospital bag?

I'm 34 was pregnant with a scheduled c section on 7/15 for baby #2. I keep telling myself I should pack a hospital bag in case my water breaks early. (Last time it did two weeks early). Yet, I can't get motivated to actually pack it. Am I alone? Who has packed their bags already? I'm hoping tomorrow after my dr visit and ultrasound I will get motivated and get baby clothes ready too!

Re: Hospital bag?

  • I packed my bag after my water broke at 40+6. It's not really a "panic, we have to go NOW!" situation, or at least it wasn't for me. Contractions were still like 20-30 min apart when the water broke, so I called the hospital, finished my breakfast, packed my bag and took the commuter train to the hospital.

    If you want to pack your bag beforehand, I say just decide that you are going to do it and just do it. But I think you can also get away with making a list of what you want to bring and then pack it later. You still have lots of time!
