i always went with murpys law approcah that if i packed my bag early my bub would be waaay over due ....
but around 37 weeks i packed and unpacked my bags / rearranged it so many times ... so i left it ..
I had a sched c/s so the night before i packed my bag with fresh clothes ..

but i found i didnt need half the stuff i brought and i also found that the less you bring the better , because depending on where you live dh can pop back and gt it for you next visiting hours ..
