What type of sanitary pads do I need to take to the hospital

Normal maternity pads to be on the safe side. Regular nighttime ones might also be OK

Thankss How many packs do you think I'd need to take with me

Definitely maternity pads. It really depends on how long you stay for; I was in for 4 days after birth and probably went through 6 packets.

Boots maternity pads are great and often on 3 for 2. I took two packs with me - 2nd time I didn't open the second pack.

Also, double up on them in your pants. I had two side by side at all times!
