Question

I'm 38 weeks & my due date is September 6, Should i start packing my hospital bag or wait til the end of the month?

Answer 1

I have always had my bag packed at 36 weeks. No body knows for sure when baby is going to make it's arrival. Better to be prepared. And also it's kind of exciting :D I'm 33+ weeks with no 3 and can't wait to start packing mine.

Answer 3

Answer 4

Answer 5

I'm 35.5 weeks and have had my bag packed for weeks. You never know when you're going to go into labour, especially at 38 weeks, you were technically full term a week ago.

Better get onto it mate, you don't want to be doing it while in labour and risk forgetting stuff.
