From memory there is a link somewhere on BB about what to take? I've had my bags *mostly* packed for a few weeks "Just in case" and have a list of things that still need to go into what bags on the pinboard next to the phone so that if I get too excited andcan't remember, or have to rely on DH to finish the packing, we won't forget anything... well that's the plan
I have two bags packed. One is my labour bag and has;
Heat/cool pack
spare undies for me
"surf boards"
jelly lollies (Snakes and frogs) to keep my energy up if I need/want them
Two bottles of powerade for me
a 6 pack of fruit juice for DH
Snacks for DH (incase it's a looooong process - I don't want him fainting because he hasn't eaten!)
Swimmers and towel for DH (My hospital likes Dad to be "decent" even if he's helping you in the shower during labour
Lip Balm (to be packed later)
An outfit for bub for me to use a "focus" point
Socks (incase I end up with cold feet which is apparently common
slippers (I have a fear of slipping over on hospital floors - done it plenty of times as a nurse!)
Camera (to be packed)
Notepad and pen (so I can record things if I feel the urge!)
A change of clothes for DH incase he gets mucky)
A list of names and numbers for DH to SMS/call when baby arrives (and also email addresses so he can email those we're not calling when he gets home)

Then I have my hospital bag which has all of bubs stuff as per the hospital "guidelines"
Three pairs of PJ's for me (so I don't have to rely on DH washing them all the time)
3 sets of day clothes (to be packed because I'm wearing them now) so I don't have to sit in PJ's all day - I'm not sick after all!
Dressing gown
More surf boards
Standard toiletries
A stick of sard wonder soap (so I can pre'treat and rinse any nasty undies before DH takes them home to wash)
LOTS of undies
A pair of shoes (for going home but will prob use the same ones I'll wear on my way)
Mobile ph charger and mobile (so I can reach DH)
Some spending money
Sunnies (I don't go anywhere without them)

HTH
