Hiya,
Thats pretty similar to me!
But from what I've learnt from friends im taking 12 nappies, 3 vests and 3 babygros, 1 blanket and 6 pairs of disposable nipple pads. Not taking bibs.
I didnt think of straws.
What about Milton Sterile Wipes for the bathroom at hospital? They are only a couple of quid (that was suggested by my friend as she had to share a bathroom and it wasnt properly cleaned between toilet visits) x

I will be taking anti bac gel and wipes.

With DD the bathroom was not always pleasant

cheap flip flops for the shower.

My friend found that there were no work tops in bathroom to put her bits on so she suggested taking a carrier bag or wash bag with handles that cxan be hung up in the bathroom x

What are the bendy straws for?

What are the bendy straws for?

Drinking?

It was on my NHS list.

What are the bendy straws for?

they're good to take because gas and air can make your mouth really dry aswell as making you a bit out of it - so makes it easier to drink using a straw.

lip balm for the same reason - dry mouth! x

I'm not too sure but what about a nursing bra..if breast feeding...

 

[Newt4]

I would ditch the body spray. In Canada we cant have sprays perfumes in hospitals. A lot of people (nurses) are sensitive to them.

I'm taking a toilet roll. Hospital ones are like sandpaper. And if you've had stitches it might be a bit nasty.

And I have clean clothes and stuff for my birthing partner, and some snacks. For after if I'm put on a ward, and I've missed dinner.
