What to pack in my baby bag hummmmm?

In the first few days you go thru more nappies than usual. With the meconium and the poo changing due to the milk intake. My first I ended up getting hubby to just bring in a packet of disposables, what ever we didn't use was bought home anyway. The hospitals here are great, they give a recommended list of stuff to take into the hospital when you first fill in you admittance papers, usually about 8-5 weeks before you are due.

Nappy is a diaper in the uk and a dummy is a pacifier lol

Just another way to say diaper. Nappy is also a name brand of cloth diapers.

I was totally unprepared when it came to my baby bag cuz I ended up with a csection last minute which meant I stayed longer. If you want your lil one in its own clothes rather than the hospitals I would pack atleast 5 outfits. I stayed in hospital 4 days and she only had one outfit!! Also three recieving blankets sounds bout right. The hospital provides blankets but I wanted my girl in something cute lol. I would bring your own wipes cuz my hospital had dry cloths that I had to wet to wipe her. Hats, mittens, and socks.
