Our car seat wasn't installed either... Oops! Good thing my water breaking didn't come with vicious contractions! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-pack-your-bags#post-749724 Mon, 29 Apr 2013 07:42:18 +0000 looch 749724@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>34 weeks, because I just wanted to have them done. Once they were packed I put them in our storage space on the way to the car. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-pack-your-bags#post-749627 Mon, 29 Apr 2013 05:22:38 +0000 CarrieLouWho 749627@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>37-38 weeks. I had bought most stuff around 36 weeks, but didn't want to jinx anything by packing too early. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-pack-your-bags#post-749619 Mon, 29 Apr 2013 04:49:12 +0000 maybebaby 749619@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>35 weeks, but I am slowly adding things in here and there. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-pack-your-bags#post-749614 Mon, 29 Apr 2013 04:00:22 +0000 MrsRoo 749614@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I was mostly packed at 37 weeks, just had to throw a couple items in as we walked out the door. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-pack-your-bags#post-749575 Sun, 28 Apr 2013 22:59:17 +0000 googly-eyes 749575@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>37-38 weeks? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-pack-your-bags#post-749559 Sun, 28 Apr 2013 22:38:14 +0000 Beehive 749559@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DH packed my bag while I was in labor! I was 39 weeks, just had procrastinated the packing of the bag and never did it. It worked out fine though! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-pack-your-bags#post-749548 Sun, 28 Apr 2013 22:18:47 +0000 teamjse 749548@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>The day of delivery since my water broke prematurely. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-pack-your-bags#post-749536 Sun, 28 Apr 2013 21:59:06 +0000 PrincessBaby 749536@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I was a slacker...38 weeks or so? I used like nothing that I packed, so it was fairly useless to have it packed early:) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-pack-your-bags#post-749531 Sun, 28 Apr 2013 21:53:43 +0000 StbHisMrs 749531@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I had a few things packed a few different times, beginning at 28 weeks. I really packed an hour before my induction! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-pack-your-bags#post-749501 Sun, 28 Apr 2013 21:31:27 +0000 Pink Champagne 749501@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>After my water broke... At 36W2D. I recommend packing by 35 weeks to all of my pregnant friends! That is truly the last thing you want to be doing when you're in labor- oh, and when your labor only lasts 4 hours total. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-pack-your-bags#post-749493 Sun, 28 Apr 2013 21:22:48 +0000 MamaMoose 749493@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>By 35 weeks. They took me off my medicine that controlled my preterm contractions at 36 weeks and my doc and I both thought I would have the baby soon after. NOPE. Labor didn't start until my due date and baby was born the next day. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-pack-your-bags#post-749481 Sun, 28 Apr 2013 21:06:19 +0000 Weagle 749481@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Had them mostly ready at 36 weeks... 5 weeks too early ;). I still had to throw a few things in on our way out the door, though. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-pack-your-bags#post-749472 Sun, 28 Apr 2013 21:02:30 +0000 Bao 749472@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Around 36 weeks, slowly! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-pack-your-bags#post-749470 Sun, 28 Apr 2013 21:01:46 +0000 3littlebees 749470@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I am so not a planner.
