Who cares. So now those that pack for the hubs will feel upset and used and start new posts about their awful dh's... Why'd you start this thread?!

I hope that the wives who pack for their husbands won't feel upset. Every family is different and does things what works for them. One person packs for her husband, another person doesn't pack for her husband but does his laundry and puts away and another person makes her husband breakfast lunch and dinner every day. And in other families the husband does the packing and he makes HER lunches to take to work every day.
I hope imamother posts doesn't make anyone feel bad about themselves and what they do for their family.

I usually do the underwear, socks, shoes etc (basically the suitcase stuff) and DH does the shirts, suits, ties etc. (the suitbag stuff)
How’s that for a compromise..

This reminded me of one of the first times we went away for shabbos after we got married. We were walking to the bus stop and my husband asked me of I packed something of his. I said no, why would I pack that. Didnt you? We then realized that no one packed for him. I still don't know why he assumed I was packing for him. Since then we each pack for ourselves. Sometimes I'll grab things like his contacts and toothbrush when I grab mine, but otherwise he's on his own.

I always pack for myself, dh and the kids. I even pack for my dh when he goes on business trips. He forget half the things he needs and everything would be wrinkled

I make a packing list for dh. After he packs his stuff he checks my list to make sure he didn’t forget anything

Mine too!!!
And my DH is so particular about his "stuff" and his closet, I wouldn't even know what to take and where anything was.

I lay everything out on the bed for the whole family and DH packs it. He’s an amazing packer/organizer but he just doesn’t know what everyone needs.
I pack his stuff but it’s his responsibility to go through what I chose him and make sure he likes it.

Why would I pack for an adult unless cc'v disabled?
My soon 11 year old mostly packs herself and has to to deal with forgotting. She just forgot to leave tights out so she borrowed some from someone.

I assume she's talking about a hanging garment bag. The kind you get with a new suit. Useful for minimizing wrinkles.

This is a tiny tangent, but the best thing I ever treated myself too aside from feather cover and pillows was packing cubes. Ebags has something called "ultra-light packing cubes" tho u can get cheaper ones on Amazon. It revolutionized packing forever for me. It's simply awesome. Everyone gets their own color so there's so mix-ups and it makes you feel so so OCD, what a good feeling! They have many sizes to pick from: think shirts, underwear etc.. If you don't already have it, buy it. You'll thank me. (or not)

I pack for myself.
I supervise my kids' packing. (Did it for them when they were younger but they now can participate and hopefully soon fully take over).
I do not pack for my husband. He never asked me to. He's an adult. Not disabled. Why would he?
