    Don't forget to add stuff for DH if he is going to get in the shower with you (swimmers and towel) my hospital had a policy about this. Also a change of clothes for him might come in handy for various reasons.

    I'm really looking forward to packing my bag this time. I am going to buy a new bag & all new nice toiletries. I think I deserve it Last time I was so slack & didn't even finish before going into labour. This time I want to have everything there & nice to make me feel good.

    Hi guys - Im a first timer and dont know what to put in my hospital bag (besides toiletries). Any suggestions? I dont want to pack too much or too little. I want to make sure I have all the essentials. Also, blob is due early June (a winter baby)...what should I pack for baby? Thanks

    Renee, for my baby the hospital has told us to bring six of everything - six singlets, six outfits, six bunnyrugs etc. That's on the assumption we'll be there for four nights. The list for myself is much longer! I'm going to be one of those really obvious first-time mums when I arrive at the hossy LOL!

    There was a thread about this not long ago, I'll see if I can dig up the link, also there is a handy article on the main page.
