ME TOO!! I’m due next week and Literally told myself yesterday I have to get it done today!

We can do this mamas! I got baby’s done last week and been procrastinating mine lol today is the day though! I’ll be 37weeks on Monday! 💕

I packed like 12 hours before going in done feel bad lol

Daddy got his bag done already 😳

Same here, my c section is this Friday but I have been having some weird symptoms and feeling like labor could start and I still keep putting it off 🙃

@Katie same I get random cramping n earlier today felt so much pressure but now I feel better .. do have to give myself grace for still working during the week. Just relaxing and hopefully will get up soon to do it 😅

I was packed months in advance and still managed to forget a lot of stuff. I didn’t have a shirt to go home in so I literally had to go home in my nightgown and a pair of jeans. lol if you have a breast pump, I’d recommend taking it! I didn’t think I would need it, but regretted not having it. It not only helps with milk production, but it also helps make feeding go easier. My daughter got put on formula in the first 24 hours and I strongly believe it is because I wasn’t pumping.

my due date is today and I haven’t packed LOL

@Jessica I think it's easier for Dad to pack their bag probably. I am 37w1d and still working on mine. Have put some things together, but not everything. It's more confusing for us as to what we will need.

Also, as the mom it seems we put ourselves in charge of packing baby's bag even though Dad could technically help with that too. Lol. Got to give ourselves grace and recognize the things we are doing.

Me too!!! Good to know I'm not alone

@Kass 😱😱

I literally had my bag packed for weeks in advanced and once labor happened, i absolutely used nothing in my bag outside of my toiletries😂😂😂 until it was time to go home to change clothes. I went home after 24 hours though

@VEA that’s good yes I heard hospitals for the most part give you a lot of things for the baby

@VEA that's good to know. I already got my toiletries taken care of.

Mines been packed since 29’weeks lol- baby doesn’t have a bag.. I just threw her onesie in mine hahaha

Finally working on it !! 😁😅

With my first, I was packed by 35 weeks, had the crib all set up and everything organized. With my second, it was 38ish weeks when I got my hospital bag ready. She came last Saturday at 39 weeks and I literally was getting the baby stuff out the day before 😅

We packed the day before induction day. Pretty much only used the toiletries, didn’t touch the clothing because I had to wear the hospital gown. It is worth taking snacks and water though! I ended up having a C section, so we sent dad to get C section recovery items and leave the vaginal delivery recovery kit since we didn’t need it

I’m just putting this information out there, but most hospitals allow you to wear your own gown if you have a natural birth. I went in to have my daughter and got told, “the gown is on the back of the bathroom door.” And I said, “I actually have my own”. And I wore that until she got here. I only had to change because it was almost impossible to do skin to skin with it on.
