Going home outfit/Hospital bag

Hey Ladies, Everyone keeps asking me have I sorted my hospital bag and my baby going home outfit. He isn’t due until July, My Questions are: 1. Is it too soon to sort my bag out and what even goes in there? 2. Any recommendations for going home outfits for baby?

I don't think there is such things as too soon, unless there is stuff you would need to put in it that you need to keep using. Having said that I haven't packed mine and don't plan to for a few weeks yet.

@Emmo thank you I just have no idea where to start I want to start getting little bits and bobs ready x

@Katie if you type it into the search function in this app loads of people have asked before and there are loads of screenshots of other people's lists. I have saved a few when they come up.

I packed mine at 29 weeks and have it all ready because you never know whats around the corner and wanted to be organised and ready❤️ you can google hospital bag checklists which helped me a-lot! I have a bag for me and a separate bag for baby - hope this helps x

Mine is all packed, I've packed a Peter rabbit onesie for my boy to come home in. I've been told that it's likely that we'll be in hospital for at least a couple of days so I've packed 5 newborn vests, 5 0-3 vests and the same with sleep suits, 5 hats, 5 pairs of socks, 5 bibs and 5 muslins, 2 dummies, 2 blankets, a towel in case he needs a bath before coming home, I've got a whole pack of nappies, pack of wipes, nappy bags, folding changing mat and nappy bags, I just need to get barrier cream and cotton wool pads xx

What ever you do or whenever you pack don’t forget a long extension lead or wire to charge your phone lol seems silly but helped me so much x

I don’t think it’s ever too early to have it ready. I’m staring mine this week. Off the top of my head I plan on taking For baby - Newborn baby grows x 3/4 Newborn vests x 3/4 Nappies Wipes/ cotton balls Hat for when they are born Thin cardigan incase it’s abit cooler coming home Blanket Maybe a packet of muslin cloths For me A couple of pairs of cosy nighties/ pjs Something to come home in Large underwear Adult nappies Pads Spritz for bits spray Slippers Usual toiletries - tooth paste/ tooth brush/ shower gel/ lip balm Towel Extra long phone charger Snacks and my water bottle 😂 x

Thank you so much everyone!! Xxx

I’m 31 week today and packed my bag at the beginning of last week. i would say it’s too soon as packing it “early” gives you an idea of what you might be missing/extras you might want to take. for going home i’d pack a warm and a cold outfit as last summer was really up and down, just to be on the safe side 🫶🏻
