Greg- all your fault, since talking to you I’ve been worrying about what to take to hospital when labour starts.
What do we need to pack to take to the hospital when little junior comes? I was thinking some jamas and a spare change for Deirdie, and a few snacks. The list is longer than that- oh yes.
Best advice so far the BBC web site- http://www.bbc.co.uk/parenting/having_a_baby/pregnancy_hospital.shtml
And the baby centre web site-http://www.babycentre.co.uk/pregnancy/labourandbirth/hospitalbag/index.html
I think I’ll need a bigger bag!
Don’t forget snacks…..I don’t know what it’s like over there, but the hospital food here is cack!!!… and poor Steve had to keep running out for snacks while he was sitting there in the hospital room… you may also want a pillow or a blanket as the little bed thing they have here for the dads is really uncomfortable… face it….post-natal nurses don’t really care about the dads at all… as you said… you’re last on the pecking list.
