When should you prepare your bag?
Your bag should be ready by the time you are 8 months pregnant in case you go into labor earlier than expected.
Should you put all the items into one bag?
We suggest you pack three bags. One for the baby, one for labor and one for after delivery. This will enable you to find whatever you need during labor without going through the entire bag. You can even leave the second and third bags in the car until you need them.
