Surfboards! Ha! I forgot about that term.
I packed the toothpaste when the tube was nearly empty, and just put the new tube in the bathroom. I put a new toothbrush in my bag, so I will keep using my old one until I come home from the hosp, when I can just turf it in the bin, and finish off the last of the toothpaste. As for shampoo, conditioner and soap, I had a sample sachet of each that I picked up from somewhere, so have packed those (and a clothes peg in case I need to clip them together for the trip home if there's much left) in a soap container.
For a moisturiser, I have quite a few bottles floating around, so just picked a nice one and put that in, and am using another. I packed something that smells nice, but isn't too strong so that when people hug me they won't get that hospital smell - yuk.
I bought a heap of granny undies, as I always wear g strings (which probably aren't much good for surfboards!), and some pretty nighties and a thin cotton nightgown (I need to feel pretty) for my hosp stay (also handy when have to get up every 3 hours and go to another room to feed baby).
Will go looking for a book or magazine to take with me.
I will have to go through MG's list again, and add a few things to my bag I think. Like I forgot about the heat/cold pack. oops.
Even before I just thought about other things I need in my bag, I still haven't finished packing either mine nor baby's bags, and I'm due Saturday week!
But how much do you pack and generally not use? I don't want to have to have a whole entourage just to bring in my bags behind me as I enter the hospital.
