    I'm taking loads! I've shoved in six sleepsuits, six vests and a hat.

    Thanks fluff. Are you taking newborn size only or both newborn and 0-3?

    I am worried about the cone head too. Me and my siblings were all born by c-section so we never had that problem. My mum keeps going on about it how it would be good if I had a section too as babies come out without effort and have normal heads.

    I've done the same, 5 sleepsuits, 5 vests, 2 hats, 2 pairs of socks, 2 pairs of scratch mittens, 2 blankets....bascially just packed loads! 10 nappies, cotton wool, wipes, bottles, milk, and the kitchen sink. Can never have too much stuff.

    I keep putting stuff in my bag thinking 'just incase' and its getting a bit full.....as long as baby's sorted, OH can always bring me bits I suppose but I hate being unorganised!

    Thanks for the posts and hugs following my meltdown this morning! Hopefully some sleep will solve everything.

    Sorry I missed your meltdown earlier, hope you are feeling better now and sleep helps.

    Hi
    Can I be added to the list please. I'm due on the 27th of October and we think it's a boy. Had a gender scan and was told 90% sure it was a boy but I'm not convinced as baby was being very uncooperative. This is our second child, our DD is 10.

    Just newborn size for the hospital even though I reckon I'm having a whopper. Like MrsBryan I'm taking a blanket too. No socks or scratch mitts though because that's all incorporated in the sleepsuits.

    Is it wrong that I'm 15 weeks and we haven't bought anything for the baby yet? :(

    Nope, after all you've got 25 weeks to go! ;) We're trying not to buy too much stuff now, as we've got nowhere to store it until we sort out the furniture in the spare room!
