I'm in my 39th week of pregnancy with my second. We are getting to the finish line! You may want to bring some black pants for recovery. There ends of being a LOT more blood than planned, especially if you tear or have hemorrhaging. It's more blood than you plan because your whole big uterus has to squeeze back down, and every friend of mine who has a baby wishes someone told them about the crazy bleeding beforehand. It goes by so quickly and becomes a faint memory before you know it. Also, bring some paper to write down Emilia's birth story! You forget the details so quickly, and it's wonderful to have it all written down to look back at or show your little girl someday. Good luck with your labor and delivery!! You will love having a girl! We are having our second, and we were so happy to hear that we were getting another girl. They're sooooo much fun.

As someone suggested itd good to take sth like vichy spray for face. also I'm packing disposable underwear... I know they look horrible but they allow your body to "breath". You may find that you need morethan one towel as they get dirty quickly. And most of all in hospital there are so many bugs that its better to take there things you can just throw away.
I'm one week behind you but still didnt pack my bag :) but I may do it this week.

Will Jofus be taking a bag? He might want to pack some stuff, my husband wishes he had taken some things for himself during my labour (hindsight is great! :s) such as a travel pillow, toothbrush and a change of clothes, we were up for 48 hours solid (i had a 40 hour labour) and he didn't have anything with him. He only went home after she was born because he wasn't allowed to stay overnight with us :( will Jofus be staying with u?

Hi just had another thought as well as the bikini that I mentioned on video. You may not need a dressing gown hospitals tend to warm at least in Scotland they are. Ooh maybe take a face mist for during labour. I hope everything goes to plan. :-)
