I don't think I've ever packed.. I just wait till I have the baby and have my family bring me my stuff but then again I was living with my aunt this time I'm on my own but my aunts friend already has the stuff for the baby she said shes gonna start preparing my bag soon so I won't be packing this time either.. although I think ima go with those diapers used for older people my aunt uses them.when she gets her period she said their amazing

I havent even started. I dont like packing until the last minute which I know isnt a good idea here but once I start going to weekly dr appts instead and if things start to look like they are changing and something is going to happen I will start packing then... I am sure the baby bag I will do sooner once I have my shower. I just hit 29 weeks today so I feel like I have some time left... I hope lol!!!

I've got my lists started!! I'm such a list person..I write everything I can think of possibly needing, I have the babies stuff in a pile, but my stuff I won't start to pack for awhile yet... I have started lists for my hubby too!! He's gonna have 3 kids this time to take care of!! I make each child their own basket of clothes n write what day they should wear what!! I don't think ill worry too much because my oldest is 8 and can make sure the other two look ok!!! I've gotta make lists for food too!! My poor hubby, I've really spoiled him!! He's getting worried a little I think!! He says lots of cereal n milk and mcdonalds!!! Lol

I'm 29 weeks now, and started packing about 2 weeks ago. So far I have only packed hygenic stuff; soap, toothpaste, deodorant, pads, etc. I know I should pack clothes, but I'm worried that if I do, I will wind up not fitting in the things by the time I am in the hospital. Granted my weight gain is very slow thanks to my also losing a bit, but still, who knows how big I could be when 9 months hits! My baby's bag however, is good to go! Have everything from diapers/wipes to clothes, his baby book, a bottle (just in case), pacifier, and even some premade Enfamil newborn formula just in case the hospital only offers similac which I cannot stand. If only I could be as thorough with myself as I am with him! lol

I have started collecting stuff into a pile and i have a list made of stuff that i think about...also i have my friend getting me the waterless shampoo i wanted and my mom is looking into disposable undies but i dont think she is fully aware of what im talking about lol.... i picture getting a giant pack of incontinance briefs! and she is getting me the period pads that have that gel in them... my friend swears they are so much better and not as bulky... anyway my mom works at a pharmacy and my friends a hair dresser so both can get stuff at cost :) I also have been collecting change for a while liek loonies and toonies, quarters for vending machines and whatever...

My plan is to have my BF come during the day and go back home after supper so he can stay with my daughter and that way she can come for the day too so my main concern is getting stuff organized for her and the day trips in to see me... i think ill have to make a list for him each day adn have snacks and stuff ready for him to grab... i might pack a bag just for her for me to have there just cause i dont have much faith that she will be prepared with him getting her ready! lol im not sure what to do on csection day... Clints family doesnt drive in the city and he could meet them somewhere and bring them the rest of the way but honestly i dont know of they would drive with her with them....they are honestly paranoid! I wish we lived closer to my mom :( and part of me thinks to just leave her at home for a day and she can see me the next day but i think that will make me really sad lol sorry i kinda went OT... lol its what im having trouble organizing....

I don't think 32 weeks is too early, always good to be prepared! I haven't packed mine because I'm 28 weeks
