I think my babys going be average size so newborn stuff you should fit fine, last time I had a second bag going do that again I'll take some stuff out and put in a seperate bag could be home in 48 hrs, my oh will probably bring up the wrong sizes if his got sort things, im nesting at home big time lots of cleaning never been like that before x

 

[mrs-s]

I've been nesting loads I'm normally so lazy but I'm always cleaning and bleaching everything at moment haha x

 

[Cas3]

I been abit obsessed lately wiv the cleaning, been worse today just dont want to come home to a messy house x

 

[mrs-s]

One of my cravings is the smell of flash so I'm abit obsessive lol, iv started to get slack on the little things though now I'm alot bigger like cleaning the windows and glass in the doors etc and bathroom is just a wipe over and chuck some bleach down the toilet instead of cleaning all the mirrors and tiles etc haha x

 

[Cas3]

Thats what I been doing scrubing the bathroom, washing the paint work down, cleaning out the oven, even cleaning Maisie's cot with cleaning wipes she thinks mummy going mad lol x im normally lazy too!

 

[mrs-s]

Haha definitely sounds like nesting lol can't believe it's so soon now for you I'm dead excited for you! xx

 

[beccaharrison89]

i know this may sound crazy but do you have to take nappies in with you ? or do thw hospital supply them when you in there?
i only asking due to noone putting thwm on their list

 

[mrs-s]

They are on my list I was listing what clothes I put in, they wernt provided at my old hosp with my son I assume they won't be at this one either x

 

[Cas3]

Thanks hun im just so scared, dont wot im going be like tomorrow! it soon be ur turn in a few wks! Becca don't know any hospital that provides nappies unless its an emergency just take in with you a small pk, you do get a few freebies in ur bounty pk while in hospital unless thats changed x

 

[beccaharrison89]

would you just take newborn size 1 snf how many would u takr?

 

[Cas3]

Yeah I just pk my bag took a small pk of 27 nappies in size 1 that should be plenty I shouldnt be in hospital any longer than 3 days x

 

[mrs-s]

Iv got a pack of 24 micro nappies they are what I used last time I found they fitted my LO alot better fr first week or so than size one, going to take my 10 free size one I got from pampers too just incase he is bigger than I expect so I've got enough for dh to go get me some size 1

I think they generally provide the first nappy, when I went in labour ward to be monitored there was a cot set out in corner with blanket etc in and a nappy and hat x

 

[Cas3]

Jessie must of been so tiny then x

 

[mrs-s]

He wernt he was 8lb 9 haha I just think the sizes are stupid and I hate nappies up under their arm pits lol x

 

[beccaharrison89]

ive stocked up on huggies newborn size 1 and 2 and on my babybump app it seems everyone says huggies are awful and they leak

 

[mrs-s]

I hated huggies they just as absorbent or stretchy they always seemed tight on my LO like he couldn't move and need changing about every ten minutes! Pampers all the way for us I used them with my LO from being born apart from the odd packet and he's never once had nappies rash in 2.5yrs x

 

[beccaharrison89]

arghhhhh i dont know whether to get another brsnd incase ,ive two boxes of size one and two boxes of size 2

I must admit I'm sick of wasting my money on huggies. They leak for me but it might just depend on shape of the baby, I've bought Asda's little angel one's which I find perfect and some pampers and some morrisons own which I found great for on first lo x

 

[beccaharrison89]

a lot of people recommend asda little angels.
i suppose now i have bought the boxes of huggies i mite aswell try them Nd c how get on and then when running out of them if they no good try others

 

[mrs-s]

I Have a pack of boots newborn nappies in my pile, I used them in size 1 and were great but bigger sizes leaked, I think it's worth paying extra cus you do get what you pay for with these things. We use Tesco and asda wipes though never had a problem with those x
