Thank you all so much for your responses.

I went shopping yesterday and got a few things, the OLNY mat pads I could find were the libra ones so I guess them teamed with the hospitals surfboards that shouldn't be too bad.

I have also created a printable list which I will run off and keep on the bed in the nursery where I am laying out all the things and marking them off once I have them. I will also print off the list and keep it on the fridge for DH.

Just one more question - how many bags did you all take

No seriously I was wondering is it better to pack things separate so a bag for baby, a bag for labour, a bag for hossy stay and a bag for DH ? or would you shove it all in together??

Thanks again heaps
