Pack now! I started packing at 30 weeks and completed at 34 weeks lol. I gave birth at 37 weeks but I was very prepared. Once your shower is over you don't want to have to worry about packing, just getting your little one's room ready.
Thank you!!! Ima start packing soon :) I hope I remember everything...I been forgetting so much.lol I'm so excited and anxious :))
With my first two, I had them 3 -4 weeks early. No signs of early labor it just happend. I wasn't prepared at all so while in labor I struggled to throw things together. With my experience I suggest between 32-33 weeks just incase. Good luck!
I've packed a mini-bag, just in case...toiletries, a nightgown, socks and a couple of pairs of underwear, books, a couple of snacks. Only 27 weeks but warned of possible hospitalization; I live really near the hospital so I just wanted something to get me through while I sent somebody back to get more things if I needed to...I did make an effort to put maternity things in special drawers so they'd be easy for others to find. I'll pack the real hospital bag probably around 34-35 weeks or so, unless I get inspired earlier.
I'm 30wks and all I've packed so far is toiletries lol. I'm high risk and I don't expect to make it full term :-P I'd just do it little by little, kinda throw things in you know you aren't going to use soon (I'm going to bring some capri pj pants, but I wear them currently so they'll be a last minute thing lol). Get some travel sized soaps, shampoos, deodorants, ect. Throw them in a large freezer zipper bag and pack that. If you happen to go into early labor you at least can feel clean until someone runs home and grabs the rest lol
