Here’s what I have looking through the bags...

Any thing else I may have missed or you ladies found useful to have please list

Thanks so much in advance

Flip flops if you want to have a shower.
Magazines
Foldable changing mat
Face wipes
Cooling spray
Mints - can help with wind
Nipple cream - if you're planning on breastfeeding.
Might find it handy to put babies outfits in separate zip lock bags that way it's easier for hubby to know what he needs to get out the bag.
Loads of muslin cloths - you'll be surprised how many you go through.
Loose change for Vending machine

I had some button up shirt style nighties which were perfect as I could unbutton to feed and they didn’t push on my c section scar like pjs would. I also got away with wearing leggings under them whilst in hotin the day and looking half way dressed.
I would make sure you take snacks too.

I’ve pretty much got your list too Snoopy!

The only additional things I have are some hair bobbles & brush, paracetamol (loads of people have said for after birth the nurses / midwifes are busy so you can wait a while for them) & warm socks.

Good luck!
