I have packed a toothbrush and shampoo/cond and all that stuff I just brought these great mini travel packs.
My last baby was a ceaser and i remember using the hospitals pads the first day but ur right ill def need more, should make sure i have enough for when i come home to last a few days before i need to venture out, I think I starting using tampons the day i came out last time.
Ill only be in here for 4 days 5 at the absloloute maximum

you shoudln't be using tampons after you have a baby hun! it's a no go big time!
make sure you have a stash of "friendly" clothes at home that you can refer DH to - if you're in for 4 or 5 days and happen to have a leak onto your pj's or clothes, you'll want to know DH can bring you more stuff that will be comfy straight away...

Has anyone said more pj pants?
You might just need them for the first night/morning. Old ones. That first day often has a pretty heavy flow & it's not easy if you aren't prepared
Can you take a BF pillow with you? It may help you get comfy after your c/s.

Maybe a pack of lollies...like barley sugars or mints.
And I agree with definitely packing the lipbalm and bottle to fill up with water - these with a writing pad and pen was always within arms reach (I found I used the writing pad to jot feeding times down, as I was getting confused when the nurses came and asked when the last feed was and for how long...think i've got a bit of a short term memory sometimes)
