3rd tri ladies....
Is your bag packed?
After my little visit to L & D the other night.... I realized - I don't have much time left, and I need to get it done.
So that was my chore today....

Re: 3rd tri ladies....
Just about. I need a few more things to put in the bag, but it's the stuff I use everyday. I think I'll just have to buy doubles of my daily stuff and forget about any last minute packing.

Re: 3rd tri ladies....
I packed mine at around 36 weeks, but even now, 1 day past my due date I keep adding things. I know I'm going to end up with a bunch of stuff I don't need. Oh well.

Re: 3rd tri ladies....
I have a three to four weeks let but I did start. I have to make a list of some last minutes things such as my toothbrush, hair brush, face cream, makeup - you know everyday stuff that I can't pack yet, so at the last minute I don't forget to grab them. Wors case my DH can come back to get stuff the next morning.
So far I have packed a nursing bra, sweatpants, nursing tank, PJ's for when people visit (Im not comfy in the hospital gown), shampoo, conditioner, hair band, headband, outfit to bring home baby (New Born) and I want to pack a biger take home outfit in case the baby is bigger. I found that the last time I overpacked stuff that I didn't need or want.
I had DS 3 weeks early so I was glad that I threw some stuff together before hand. When the moment came suddenly - I just said "grab the bag".

Re: 3rd tri ladies....
I did the same exact thing that you ladies have done.
I packed what I don't need right now, IE my clothing for during the stay - a velour jogging outfit, tshirt, pajamas, underwear, 4 pair of socks and underwear, toothbrush, pads, charged the camera and threw that in there, i packed her stuff in there (i just left it in the diaper bag and threw that in there I wanna keep her stuff seperate from mine).
I have my list of items which I have to pack last minute - my shampoo and conditioner, hairbrush, makeup, creams, cell phone charger, computer (bringing it for music factor during delivery and for when the baby is in the room), and a couple of other items. (Can't remember them off the top of my head - it's too early).

Re: 3rd tri ladies....
Pretty much. I am not overly concerned because if we forget anything DH will have to pick it up or my family will come and get something. I am convinced I am forgetting something.

Re: 3rd tri ladies....
I'm 31 weeks today and haven't packed my bag yet. I want to do it soon just because if anything happened I would hate to leave it up to my boyfriend to pack. God knows what would be in there...lol.

Re: 3rd tri ladies....
Another thing to add to the list is the baby's boppy if you plan on using one/already have one.
That's a great list!!!!

Re: 3rd tri ladies....
Not yet. I'll do it this weekend when I officially become 36 weeks! I seriously doubt I'll be going early though.
