That's too bad. My OB gave me a list as well, you may be able to ask your MW? I'm sorry I'm not sure how things work there...

Lol, well when i was in my first few months of pregnancy, i made OH go to pharmacy to get Thrush pessary and cream for me. And he had no choice but to explain what i exactly wanted, the one that insert in your private etc...

My OH reckons he suffered a lot throughout my pregnancy, you can never argue with man!!!

So before i could ask him anything for my maternity bag, he told me to get all my Maternity things sorted myself as he wouldnt be able to find anything! And i know all his stuff, work wise, going out im the one doing everything for him, its like im giving birth to my second baby!!!

Wow, that link is showing so much more than I actually packed!!! I hope I have enough because I really dnt remember what I brought the first time around. I dnt remember having to use anything a brought for baby except for the going home outfit because everything else was taken care of in the hospital and she was born in the summertime. This time around, I also decided to go with less for baby, take a look at this site:

Just click on each of the links to see what you need for you during and after labor, baby and hubby

Something I was so pleased I packed was a little battery operated fan. Especially in this hot weather and in the warm hospital I went thru a few packs of batteries too xXx

When I went for my 4D last week the head midwife gave me a booklet on the maternity ward. Including what I should take with. DH keeps nagging me to start (he likes being prepared and is so afraid something happens sooner than we're expecting)
But one thing that list told me to take with that I thought was really helpful and thought I'd share:

As well as underwear they say that I should take 3 pairs of old stockings with the legs cut off. Suppose it helps keep those maternity pads in place better than underwear.
Also they can just be thrown away afterwards and you dont need to buy new underwear or have any ruined.

Use it dont use it lol.
