How many maternity pads?

Ladies how many maternity pads are you packing?? I have disposable and some large high waisted underwear to wear them with. Due to my blood type I know I’ll need to stay in overnight. Are we talking 10,20.. pads? Also.. how many nappies for baby? I was just thinking one pack (think there are 24 in the pack) .. help! I think the stress anxiety is setting in. I’m acting like I’m going to the middle of nowhere, where there are no shops 😅😂

I am packing 20 maternity pads and about 6 heavier duty ones. Hospital can give out some if I run out / I have backups in house so partner can bring over.
