But in terms of your hospital bag-

are you taking new born sizes and 0-3 sizes?

How many outfits are you taking?

What else for baby are you taking?

Is anyone that is going to breastfeed taking breast pump and bottles??

Really want to know the answers! Lol

sorry for crashing in :) xx
 
I'm taking some early baby clothes in case bubs is under 6lbs and some newborn all in ones too - about 5 outfits across those sizes.

Take a look at the sticky thread above about what you need for your hospital bag.
 
im taking about 4 babygrows and 3 outfits plus will have extra packed at home if needed and newborn size nappies will take half a pack plus wipes n sudocream i had csec last time and poss again so want to make sure i have enough i want to express milk but not bf so need to ask mw what i need to take in
 
I'm hoping not to need my hospital bag but have packed;

3 newborn sleep suits
3 0-3 sleep suits
1 outfit for coming home in
nappies
wipes

and my mind has gone blank as to what else I've packed! I did it a while ago! Lol x as for bottles and pump I think hospitals provide them if needed but I'm unsure
 
3 sleepsuits
2 cardigans
1 jacket
2 pairs scratch mittens
2 pairs socks
2 booties
2 hats
2 blankets
1 pack nappies
1 pack wipes
1 pack of cotton wool
2 bottles
2 different teats (i plan to bottlefeed)
1 coming home outfit

All the above are size newborn (my friends baby was 8lb 12 and her newborn clothes were slightly too big for her)
 
Just to add to the others lists, I'm taking vests to go under sleepsuits just to give them some extra warmth! Also take a camera for piccie's!!
 
All of the above really!

Im planning to bottlefeed, but havnt packed bottles - do i need to? I thought hospital would provide until i came home? Oo may have to ask midwife!

Iv also popped in a sponge and top to toe wash aswell for baby, also some dummys -(early i know, but they were a godsend when my first had to go under the UV lights)

x
 
I've heard they do but i got told by a friend to take bottle and 2 different teats so baby gets used to what your using!!
 
I'm gonna take newborn vests and suits as some of the 0-3 come up huge and will prob fit and average 7-8 lb baby at 3 mths still
 
sounds u guys are taking alot.. i dont think i will take that much
