Packing for Hospital

My EDD is 30th July. Have started packing for the hospital. What went into my bag.

. Calming Chamomile Spray: I love this spray for refreshing myself, even in normal times.
. Perineal Wash

. Disposable Cloth-like Panties: 1 pack is more than enough for a 2-day stay!

. Ultra-Thin Extra-Long Overnight Sanitary Napkins: much more comfy than the thick hospital ones.

. 3 nursing-friendly bras : I brought mostly the camisole bras for ease of use and comfort, plus 1 nice bra for leaving the hospital in

. 2 Ally Transitional Dresses: Comfortable and Great for Breastfeeding
. 1 pair of maternity jeans & nursing top: for wearing when Going Homel.

. Personal Grooming / Care Items (the hospital will usually have toothbrush/toothpaste/shampoo/bodywash/washcloth/towel).

. Music CDs (there are cd players in some hospitals)
. OB/GYN Antenatal Care Card (for admission)
. Wallet with NRIC
. Digital Camera
. Marriage Certificate (so hubby can apply to use Medisave - also useful if you register baby's birth at hospital).

. Going Home Outfit for Baby (Romper, Cap, mittens/booties, Snugwrap blanket).

This time I really didn't pack all that much. Just about enough.

Double-duty

Need Preggie Clothes? Well, think about how our breastfeeding clothes may work for you and for the few months after you birth! I've found great success doing so, and some of you have seen it for youself!

Initially, I got by with styles like Mandy Solds, Mandy Stripes, Lavinia Graphic, Lavinia Plain, and Rachel, until my 5th month of pregnancy. I also found Belle Paisley to be rather flattering.

And on to the beyond 5 to 6 mths stage, my wardrobe I kept grabbing styles lke Selina & Cindy as part of my everyday wear with jeans. These were comfy and gave a sleek look. Selina was my absolute fave this pregnancy, must say! Had them in several colours! And wore them until my 9th month!

Some of the other styles that worked for me until my 8th or 9th month are:
Calla V-Neck
Liana Short-Sleeve
Claire Polo
Deana Long-Sleeve
Cindy Long-Sleeve
And the good thing is, could continue wearing them after I birthed!
