I'm already getting antsy and I want to pack mine (I'm only 28 weeks... LOL). I went to Target the other day and picked up a bunch of travel-sized toiletries.

Question about the bag-- so I'm guessing you'll have a labor bag (stuff you'll want during labor... maybe a magazine or an iPod or honey sticks) and then you have other stuff for post-delivery (comfy clothes, toiletries). Do you bring both bags into the hospital? Do they let you keep your personal stuff in the delivery room? I'm confused about that.

Mine was done by the time I was full term at 37 weeks. I am SO glad I had it packed because I thought that when I went to the hospital I'd have time to shower, put on make-up, add things to my bag, etc but that wasn't the case for me! We had to leave immediately & I had DD 4 hours later!

I'll be finishing it up this week (I'm 37 weeks). Most of the things are at the house we just need to put it all together.

@HabesBabe:
My hospital recommends having two separate bags so you're not lugging all that stuff around.But my husband only wants ONE bag so he doesn't have to leave me. So we'll be using a huge expandable Air Force issued backpack. haha
I don't think they would have an issue with personal things, my hospital at least.

@sulli301:
I hope my delivery is like yours!!!

I had mine packed and ready to go when I was 36 weeks. Didn't go into labor until 40wks2days!

I've got my toiletries packed and am slowly accumulating everything else (34 weeks). At my hospital, we can have all our personal items in the labor and delivery room, then pack them up and take it upstairs to the family suites. They said lots of people bring laptops and other devices - so I have that on my list. Which will take care of music during labor.
