    i've only ever taken two bags to hospital.

    i take a suitcase big enough for all my stuff, baby clothes, blankets, nappies/wipes etc

    then i used my nappy bag as my labour bag. in that i had my shower gel, a change of clothes for after the birth, a pair of socks, hair brush, some panadol, 2sets of clothes for baby, 2 blankets, the sample pack of wipes from bounty bag, a sample pack of wipes, sample pack of breast pads.

    I always go everywhere with a bottle of water and i dont eat during labour but some people choose to take food and drinks.

    some other things to think about packing are
    *flushable wipes
    *toilet paper
    *note pad and pen
    *money
    *something to read
    *portable dvd player and dvds
    *ipod
    *mobile charger
    *tissues
    *a bag for DP
    *some green bags to pack any gifts into you may get while in hospital or for taking home soiled/dirty clothes
    *pastic bags to put soiled/dirty clothes in

    i also packed early and lived out of my suitcase
