Definitely some lucozade sport raspberries! And then the nosiest snacks possible purely because me and the baby’s father split in January and he hates loud eating 🤣

@Emily the is hilarious

@Emily 😂😂 amazing

@DeJah it’s what the cheating dick deserves 🤣🤣

@Rachel the crunchier the better

Lucozade sport, crackers, nuts lots of choc☺️ cereal bars for my husband who will be fasting and god knows what time we will be there 🤷🏽‍♀️

Lucozade sport, snickers, trek bars, cashews, fruit and nut mixes!

My partner ordered Dominos and fed me between contractions😂

I couldn’t eat a thing while in labour .. it would all come straight back up but was okay a few hours afterwards, my man just made do with food & drink from the hospital cafe

@Madison right sending my mom to get me a McDonald’s 🤣

The hospital wouldnt let me eat during labour - but I cant wait to get some sushi into me once the baby is OUT!!

Protein bar and dates

I took Lucozade sport. I was only allowed to drink that or water during labour and for a little while after due to c section. For snacks I took digestive biscuits and protein bars, just make sure to check sugar contents. In the end I didn't eat them during labour because I was constantly offered food at the hospital, but they were great for afterwards and when I got home. Make sure to pack snacks for your birth partner because you will be offered food while they will not and my partner was really hungry even though I did pack him some snacks. He didn't want to go down to the hospital cafe either in case something happened. Ideally put together and take a sandwich/packed lunch or something for them.

Snickers was my biggest craving 😂 I also packed cookies, protein bars, crisps and few drinks. You can really get hungry in between hospital meals and the foods not that nice 🥴

I genuinely ate nothing apart from quavers and drank lucozade sport raspberry😂 It’s so mad how addictive it is in labour

I had so much food and ate pretty much nothing. They were handy for afterwards when I was starving. Tiny things I would say. I had blueberries and bits of flap Jack. Lots of water or drink that you like

I was thankful for my snacks after the hospital Cafe closed. But definitely didn't eat a whole lot. I was STARVING for like 3 days after giving birth because my stomach could actually hold food again. I packed a lot of cereal lol

I took brownies, crisps & pineapple and then just water really but did take a few capri suns as they were my craving 🤣 wasn’t allowed anything but water after having an epidural though and honestly after the toast and tea they give you is spot on 👌🏼 stayed for one more meal after that which they provided and I was home so didn’t need loads.

I had crisps, lots of biscuits and water. Wasn’t expecting to stay for three days. Luckily my mum brought extra snacks and meals each day. Three meals a day while breastfeeding was not sustaining me in the slightest 😂😂

Honey sticks saved me! I don't usually like straight honey but I had probably 20 during labor lol my doula brought them and I will make sure I always have them now lol
