& Ju! Oh God, Ju! That photograph is orgasmic!

slippers or flip flops
anti bac wipes (for toilet)
Make up??
Camera
Car Seat

I thank you.

Sadly, it is a historical photo

Going home clothes for you

oh yeah slippers thanks, and dressing gown.
Camera - got now
Make up oh yeah, and brush!!

Car seat - crap..picking it up tomorrow!

How long did that last, Ju? It really wouldn't survive more than half an hour with me - if I was trying to be good

Surprise - music/ iPod/ Walkman etc?

oh and snacks and drinks!!

Suprise - in leiu of a car seat do you have a sling you could pack??

Amazingly - it actually kind of lasted months. My BF wanted dinky bags of mini-eggs for her wedding favours, so we had to buy all of those in March/ April and hang onto them until August! It was tough! We put them in that bowl for the bagging up session - needless to say any that we deformed/ cracked/ not perfect were removed and destroyed by quality control!

We used to have a similar bowl of Minstrels at Uni though - that rarely lasted more than a couple of hours each time it was refilled.

Pack of Minstrels please Kitty!

loose Change (for whatever)
Fully charged phone
List of numbers
Maternity Notes (v important)

Who else is still in their jimjams/ dressing gown?

BIRTH PLAN!

there is our old car seat up the loft, am wondering if to call DH home. My bump looks really comical, it is half as high as it was, kind of deflated.

That's what I did for my wedding favours, Ju Great minds, obviously. Especially with the quality control

& surprise, make sure you've got mathsmummy's number, to update us

Suprise - what are the contractions like now?

It would be bad form to present substandard mini-eggs as favours!

thanks all, think I'm nearly there with the packing. Contractions were 8 mins, 8 mins, 11 mins, 15 mins and 14 mins apart, all lasting just over a minute and a half.

Suprise - yup if your dh is an hour away give him a call

he has just said shall I come now, and I said no not yet. Feel bad dragging him home if it's nothing!
