Hospital Bag - What To Pack

[Dizzy321]

To be honest, the changing mat comes with my changing bag anyway and this is what I'm taking all babies things in. Its tiny and takes up no space whatsoever. Thanks though, I will check with the midwife, but I see no harm in taking it - if it makes my life easier then its worth it!

yep mine came with my change bag and folds up and is tiny so no harm in taking it! never took one last time, just going on last time....changing that first poo in the cot is very fiddly so I would rather change her on the change mat on the bed.

It was the Sainsbury's one. I got that pack too and all the stuff is really nice in it. Definately worth a trip to Sainsburys for!

Not sure what m/w thinks holly hun .I promise Changing a bum on your bed is difficult hun .
My changing mat is a tiny little fold away thing that takes no room at all , I see what she means about taking space up etc but the one i got free with my pampers/huggies pack the green and red polka dot one is soooo tiny .

Either way im sure you will cope hun. xx .

especially if they decide to wee everywhere.....

Quick quest, how many disposable knickers? x

 

[lolly101]

I've put 10 in but I got another 10 at home in case hubby needs to bring some more in!!!When I get home I prefer my own knicks again!!

 

[Rach276]

Thanks hun. I havent got any yet so have no idea what there like, not picturing them to be very nice tho! What are they made from?

 

[lolly101]

They not too bad!!!i'm used to g strings so having proper knicks I don't like!!!It doesn't say on the packet what they are made of!!! Its a kind of paper I think!!! I can't explain what I mean!!! They are softer than paper tho!!!

 

[Rach276]

Hmmm will have to get some and try them out Thanks hun

 

[sparkswillfly]

How many maternity pads and nappies is everyone packing? They take up so much room I cant do my bag up!

 

[Rach276]

I put in a 27 pack of nappies and going to put in about 24 pads. Then will probs reduce that as I run out of room lol.

 

[mummymadness]

I take tonnnnnes of maternity pads as i just go through sooo many ,
Nappies if your in a normal 24 hours you will use around 6-12 from my experiance . xxx .

 

[lolly101]

I have packed 20 mat pads and have told DH where the others are if he needs to bring any in!! nappies are the same. a pack of 2 with spare ones at home!!! I will prob end up just packing a bigger suitcase!!!
