Bags 4 Hospital - Is It Too Much?

[SareBear]

I agree with the soft toilet paper, definitely need that! And the flushable wipes are a great idea too.

I didn't use my robe, spent most of the time in pj's. I'd say overpack underwear and pants, I also had to ask DH to bring me spare pants.

Labour Bag:

I think your labour bag sounds good, did you need to add massagers/tennis balls, heat packs etc or does your hossy suppy these. Also pack maybe 2 nappies for bub (unless hossy supplies) incase it gets messed before you get to your room - we were in the labour ward for nearly 2 hrs before I walked myself to a room

I agree what most have said on the baby bag - check what your hospital supplies, they will def supply towels so don't worry about that.

For your bag,

Lots of pj's and maternity bras
little zip lock bags/plastic bags for stained things and plasitic bag for dirty clothes
squeezy sauce bottle for washing your tender tushie after using the toilet unless they have a bidet like mine (oh yes I was spoilt)

Squeezy sauce bottle? That idea totally rocks.
