I am almost 36 weeks (on Sunday) and I am scheduled for a repeat c-section in 25 days and it just dawned on me that maybe I should pack a bag. Did you still pack a hospital bag early just in case?

Yes, I need to pack mine! Makeup, power cords, cameras, outfits, etc. We are getting close!

I had one that was pretty well packed and I just threw in the last minute stuff the morning of my section. I had one going just in case I went into labor early since there's a history of very fast labors in my family and I didn't want to be caught off guard.

Yes and I needed it! My water broke before my scheduled date! And when I got to the hospital I was a 4 so I'm glad I had everything ready to go ASAP!

No, but I wish I had. My water broke the day before our scheduled c section. I took my time getting there since I wasn't really having any contractions and by time I was all hooked up my baby girl was in distress.. :(. I took my time bc I was only having a cs bc she was breech, but bc it was a high risk pregnancy. Had I had a bag packed, it probably would have saved us 30+ min.

My SIL had a scheduled c-section and went into labor a few days before. You never know..... pack a bag!

Yup. I also had my water break a few days before my scheduled C. If you're not going to pack, at least make a list of what you want to bring, so that in the stress of it all you don't have to think about it.

I did NOT pack a bag, and my water broke two weeks before my scheduled c-section. I spent a very frantic and unproductive fifteen minutes packing while trying to stay calm. I would pack one

I guess I will go pack my bag now. I *know* I should have, but I think I am so scared of going into labor that I prefer to live in denial. Especially since baby #1 had to be induced.
