Preparation

I'm almost 32 weeks just wondered when you started preparing for the arrival like washing the clothes, packing hospital bags. Don't know when to start have a feeling I won't make it to 40 weeks aswell as no other woman in my family have made it past 37 weeks!

I'm only 19 weeks... But will start a month or two before my due date, just to be prepared. My baby shower isn't until a month before my due date so then I'll really get everything organized

I started washing stuff at like 30 weeks. But I had ALOT of stuff. And I'm almost 39 weeks now and just washed all the new stuff from my baby shower and packed my bags cept the stuff I use everyday like my brush, makeup, toothbrush....last week. But I made a list so when I go into labor I wont be scrambling to remember.

I started as soon as I got stuff so I wasn't rushing at the end. When I had enough clothes for a load of laundry I did it and hung it up by size. The only thing I waited on doing is packing ny hospital bag. I packed the babys bag and stuff I wouldn't need until the hospital around 38 weeks and packed the rest when my water broke. I made a list so it took about 5 minutes to pack it.
