Third Trimester Girlies 🫶🏼

Hi everyone, I hope you’re all enjoying your pregnancy! I’ve been informed I will have a small baby and therefore I am now going for growth scans every 3 weeks. I am now 31 weeks and nesting is definitely kicking in with the news that my baby is going to be on the smaller side and delivery may be as early as 37 weeks. I was wondering if you have any recommendations on what to pack for my hospital bag as I’m a first time Mum and I want to be super organised! I have also been put on iron tablets so I feel like I want to get everything sorted so I can relax. If any other Mommas are in the same boat I would love to hear about if you have started packing your hospital bag and if you have been told you have a smaller baby 🫶🏼

I’ve been told baby is on the 8th percentile so possibly having a small baby too. I’m 31 weeks on Tuesday and I haven’t packed yet, hoping to start this weekend

Ah thanks for sharing Camilla 🫶🏼 Have you had an appointment about your birth plan yet? X

I’m in the same boat! Growth scans & a small baby💙 I’m in abit of a situation because I possibly could have a c-cection but I have just packed my hospital bag anyway as if I was to have a natural x I’ve packed - For me • 1 towel • 2 x pjs • 1 nightie • 3 maternity bras • 8 pairs of briefs • flip flops • slippers • wash bag (shampoo/conditioner/deodorant/toothpaste/toothbrush) • a fan • long charger • maternity pads • water bottle For baby • 3x newborn vests • 3x newborn baby grows • 3x 0-3 vests • 3x 0-3 baby grows • going home outfit • socks • cardigan • wipes • nappies • cotton wool pads • a little teddy • blanket

My last little one was a small one and was told she'd come early she was 5lb and born 37 weeks they've said the same this time too, I'd rather have a small one than a whopper! I'm going to prep my bag and my birthing partners bag this weekend too!

We're being induced around 37 weeks, I have pretty much packed my hospital bag for myself apart from clothes to come home in. I've been adding snacks/drinks this week. So far for baby I have nappies /wipes and plan to start adding clothes in the next week For my husband, there is underwear so far (he's tasked with putting his own clothes in so strong possibility he'll only have the underwear I've packed 😂) I don't have a set list, I've been saving the ones people share on here and then took bits off each x

I am 31 weeks tomorrow and due to a stillbirth last year I will likely be induced at 38 weeks. I have got a start on my baby bag and for the baby i have packed: 3 babygrows up to one month size 3 vests up to one month size A dummy Hairbrush 2 bibs - not sure why i added these 3 muslin A blanket 3 pairs of socks 2 hats Baby bum cream Mittens 6 bottles of readymade aptamil A pack of nappies Water wipes Going home outfit For myself: Cooling pads Peri bottle Always nappy type pads Washcloth Socks Pjs/nightie Nipple cream Nipple pads Soap shampoo and conditioner Disposable underwear and nursing bras Handheld fan And to this I will add my makeup skincare snacks etc closer to the time. My husband can pack his own outfit. I have also labelled all of these things so my husband doesn't have to trawl through all of these things and cause a mess - the faith I have in this man 😂🤦🏽‍♀️

I’m 29 weeks pregnant and I’ve been told my baby is growing too big so I might need a c section, I hope everything goes okay for all you ladies.
