Hospital bags

[rachellouise93]

Hi all!

Just wondering how much you packed in your hospital bags? Mine seem to be overflowing I've already packed 2 mini suitcases and looks like I'll be needing another!!!

How many sleepsuits and vests etc did you pack for baby? I think I've gone a little over board

I've got a changing bag for baby and a hand luggage sized case for me

1 X pyjamas
1 X nightie
Loads of huge pants
Packet of maternity pads, packet of nipple pads
Bras
Towel
Thin dressing gown
Outfit for going home in (jogging bottoms and sweat shirt)
Toiletries

If I have a complicated birth/have to stay a while, I'll send DH home for more supplies.

Baby bag

3 sandwich bags which contain a sleepsuit, vest, socks, hat
1 X thicker outfit for wearing home
Blanket
Ready feed (incase I struggle with breast feeding)
Muslin cloths
20 X nappies
Wipes
Bum cream
Fold up changing mat

Once again, if I need more supplies he can go and fetch them. We live 10 minutes drive from the hospital.

I've got one wheelie suitcase, hand luggage size

20 nappies
1 pack of wipes
3 vests
3 baby gros weigh in built scratch mits
2 hats
1 soft toy
Cotton wool
Blanket
Newborn swaddle thing

Toiletries
Dressing gown
Nursing bra x 2
Pack of maternity pads
2 x nighties
Thick socks
Ear plugs
Towel
Tens machine
2 leggings
2 tshirts
Jumper
5 knickers

My husband will bring change of clothes and toiletries for him plus snacks for us seperately.

Don't go mad!

I've just about finished mine and I think I've gone a tad OTT I hate packing at the best of times so this has stressed me out. Hate to think I've forgotten something!
I have a small hand luggage suitcase, a hold all for baby stuff and a gym bag for the hubby but it's all overflowing haven't even attempted to try and zip up yet.

Hi,

We recently made a video on this!

Hope it's of use.
