packing baby's bag and mine

[juniorsmommyx3]

Just wondering what I should pack for the baby in his bag and what to pack in mine. I just wanna make sure I'm not forgeting anything or packing unnecessary things. So if anyone could write a list of things, I'd greatly appreciate lol thanks in advance!

I pack mine in a suitcase with wheels...its easy for my hubby to wheel around and keep track of (I take the biggest one I have and put everything in there so there is only one bag).

Yeah I bought two from the supermarket. Mine is about the size of a holdall, has a couple compartments inside and an outside bit to the back. Babys bag is just like a large handbag. With just one compartment where I keep its mitts and socks x

Im 32 weeks tomorrow, had my baby shower the other day so i now have everything i need :) im having urges to pack my baby bag but, i dont have a bag to pack it in ... Only bags i have, have no compartments. Did you girls go out and buy a bag?

I had mine packed at 30 weeks after a labour scare at 29 weeks... Am now 39+5 and its been repacked several times x

I like to be super organized and prepared. With my first I had everything packed by 32 weeks. I will be 31 weeks tomrw and have everything ready it just needs to be put in the bag :)

I only pack some comfortable clothes for when me and my bby come out of the hospital because in the hospital I give birth they dnt let me have the bby with my clothes that I have for her they'll take it off and put back on the ones from the hospital. And I dnt need to pack pads because they give me that. Only my personal things for the day I get released. And it ***** because I stay for 2 days lol but is for mine and my bbys health...

I will only be staying 24 hrs after my daughter is born. This is what I have packed.
My bag: sleep pants, sleep shirt, some underwear that pads will fit good in, some yoga pants, top to come home in, and some jogging pants, makeup, shampoo, conditoner, toothbrush, toothpaste, hair clips, deoderant, camera, phone charger.
Her bag: two bottles, two pacis and a paci clip, wipes, diapers, two receiving blankets, face wipes, a sleeper, outfit for hospital visits, coming home outfit, two bows, two bibs, nail clippers, and a blanket.

Don't forget to have the carseat already installed. They can be a pain to get the base perfectly in. And where I live, it must be in the middle.

Good luck :)
