Knowing my luck i'd get it taken off me by some stroppy member of staff, lol!!

I've not started packing anything yet, but i have started putting bits & bobs together so that i can start to pack soon.

There were a couple of babies in the summer that caught MRSA at the Maternity hospital i'm going to be in so i've already got some dettol wipes & handwash so i know that i'm not passing anything on from the hospital!

Just a thought...

Nail Clippers. Any one taking these for baby just incase you are to stay in and baby has very sharp nails?

i havent packed clippers but its a very good idea ive packed pleanty of mitts though as its going to be cold and baby may have sharp finger nails

def mitts! they have cold hands all the time, when they come out!

I had some with me, but there were at the bottom of my bulky bag, which obviously had holes, so I couldn't find them

and def cut yours nails before you go into labour! mine were really long and once I had little one one my arm I was always worried to scratch her!!!

as well a MUST is lip balm! you get very dehydrated from all the physical work your body does!

and all the wet wipes I had with me (facial, anti-bacterial and wet ones family pack) came very handy as I had to change her in bed and before I put on babys clothes again I wanted to feel I am having clean hands!

I had one of this anti-bacterial gels at my bed, provided by the hospital. Just in case your hospital doesn't provide it I would strongly recommend to stick one of those in your bag as well!

I didn't have use for bibs, baby powder and nappy cream!

I bought the gel (forgot about that) most hospitals if not all have these everywhere now though I think.

Thanks for reminder on lipbalm

Local chemist didnt have nipple cream how stupid I thought so Ive had to order that online! Got everything else now bar I need to find the PSP lol!

I am not using any nipple cream at all!

my community midwife told me I can use my milk to rub them if they get try.

it works

Wobbles, a lot of people find Lasinoh is the best nipple cream. I didn't buy any last time but got it when I suffered sore nipples (you shouldn't get sore if the baby is latching on properly).

Thats what I bought Lucy :d Would rather have it in than regretting it later its like £10 so should I not use it someone will make use of it Im sure

aeh, meant if they get dry
