hi ladies,
im having elcs on friday with twins.
I have 3 vests per baby packed and 2 sleepsuits packed each. 2 of the vests (1 each) are for coming home outfit.
so 4 vests for hospital
4 sleepsuits

is this enough? If it isn't I suppose dh could always bring more.

any advice appreciated Smile

I would pack 3 sleepsuits per baby and make sure dp knows where the extras are if he needs to bring in more.
Both of my dcs had big accidents in their first 24 hours!
Also be careful re. Size. I only took in "newborn" or "up to 1 month" ones but my second was nearly 10 pounds and too big for the stuff I bought in!

I would say that isn't enough...I was in hospital for 6 nights after my elcs with twins, I took in 6 vests and 6 babygrows per baby and my husband still had to bring in more. if everything is straight forward and you are home after 2-3 days, I would say 6 each should be right. another thing to think about is sizes - my two were early and so I was glad I took tiny baby stuff with me - even that was a bit too big for them!

I should say they weighed 5lb 3 and 5lb 7
