lol! my OH is great. doesnt get embarressed etc. last time i sent him to get me tampons he couldnt find the 1s i had written down and asked a member of staff......who questioned why he wanted this particular type to which he calmly replied "they are the only 1s in the range i havent yet tried!!!"

apparently the assisstant went very red, pointed to where they were and walked off. i laughed when he told me.

will be sorting my bag soon as with both boys i was in and out with probs from 24weeks

Make up - it helped me feel less rough after the birth. I just took a couple of basics, mascare, eyeliner and a bit of lip gloss and powder.

Cleaning spray - I got a spray that kills MRSA etc and was spraying it like a mad woman. Can't be too sure lol.

Ready made milk maybe? don't know if they give you the milk there ..

Bibs

they are selling travel sized one on in tesco at the moment on offer

I didnt think of a baby towel...........good idea x

I'm guessing they would provide one, but they'd be all hard n horrible. N used on so so many babies.
Be nice to have one of your own washed in your own powder n conditioner xox
