Feel less bad as still got the toiletries. Chargers and his (dad's bits) to add x
A small suitcase was perfect for me last time so I am packing one again 😄 i got 4 sets of clothes for baby and some cosmetics for me but thats about it I haven’t had the time to do it all yet
I feel like I have overpacked too , I’m going to leave some stuff in the boot of my car like extra nappies, formula milk and tenna pants
Our midwife suggested a bag for me, one for baby and one for my wife. She said it makes it a lot easier to find what you need, so we have gone with that :)
I can probably fit everything in one suitcase but I don’t want to mix my stuffs and the baby’s stuff so in total we have two
I’ve packed a small cabin suitcase with mine and babies things. I overpacked last time and hardly anything got used. My partner can always run more things to the hospital once baby is born if we need it and stay in. X
One bag for me, one bag for baby and a backpack for my husband (that currently only has snacks and drinks in 😂 - he insists he doesn’t need anything but I’m sure he’ll be thanking me at 3am when he’s eating a Mars bar! 😂)
I have a bag for me, a bag for the baby and currently a carrier bag of snacks for my husband, but I'm going to transfer this over to a rucksack for him, along with a toothbrush and some other bits!
I've got 3 bags and then stuff we're going to bring but leave in the car like newborn clothes in case he comes early, if he waits till I'm induced he won't need it at his present weight and some extra blankets and stuff. Definitely got way too much but because I'm not sure how long I will be in I would rather have it and then not need it
It depends how far away you live. So there's a small suitcase for me. Baby bag and then partners bag . We live 15 mins aways from the hospital so if we forget anything he can go get it.
I've just got the suitcase I normally take on holiday (not cabin size). For me I like the idea of everything in one bag so coming and going from the hospital is easier as I'll be able to push that while my partner has the car seat
I've got a small cabin sized suitcase for me and a small change bag for baby. I'm expecting to be in at least 24 hours possibly longer, have packed for 48 hours . I've then packed a separate bag to leave in the car with another 48 hours worth of stuff for me and baby, just incase. Hubby can then swap the bags out without having to go home and hunt for things we need. I did this last time and ended up in for 4 days so it worked out well
I have packed a holdall bag for me and one for baby and then I have packed a spare holdall bag of stuff for me and baby if I need another bag picking up which will be left at home
I ALWAYS overpack, took a suitcase for my other two pregnancies x

On this subject, I'm already taking alot so I keeping going back and forth on taking my breastfeeding pillow, should I bite the bullet and take it or is it not worth it?
@Holley I had it in the car and did end up getting hubby to go get it on day 2
I feel like this lol, started packing one bag and now have 3 😅 definitely over packed a bit but I’d rather have it than not, suppose you just never know
