Hospital bag: Big bag or small bags?

Hey ladies

Do you think it’s easier to take one bigger bag? Or multiple small bags? I thought hand luggage carry on would suffice but absolutely not 😂 so thinking either a medium suitcase or a few little bags? What’s people’s views x

I’ve got a hold-all for labour stuff, snacks, drinks, one outfit for baby. Then everything else in a carry on case. I posted a similar thing a few weeks ago.

I saw this on the positive birth company Instagram which helped:

I am packing a large and small traveling bag - I am praying to be back home the same or next day, so wanna keep it as simple as possible. I never craved for snacks or drinks in my other Labours so not bringing any. If something comes up hubby Can always bring what i need.

Last time I had a hand luggage bag with my stuff in and some extra bigger items (nappies and formula) for baby and then the change bag (backpack style) packed with stuff for baby and will probably do similar again. I also plan to pack a bag of spares to leave in the car this time instead of taking loads of just in case bits into the hospital.

I usually bring a cabin sized suitcase. My stuff in one half, baby's in the other half 💗 probably bring my handbag aswell with phone, purse etc

C section - calm me down

I most likely have to have a c section in a few weeks and I have never felt so nervous in all my life. I struggle sleeping at night and it's all I think about during the day as I am a very anxious person.

I haven't been able to speak to a consultant yet. I wondered if anyone has any words of advice or even words of advice from a consultant they spoke to?

5 Weeks Pregnant: Is Dull Lower Abdominal Aching Normal?

Hi ladies! ❤️

I’m currently 5 weeks and a few days pregnant, and my first ultrasound isn’t scheduled until November 17, when I’ll be around 9 weeks.

Lately, I’ve been experiencing a dull ache in the middle and sometimes on the sides of my lower abdomen, almost like mild period cramps. I’m just wondering if anyone else experienced something similar this early in pregnancy.

Is this a common symptom? And did anyone else have to wait until 9 weeks for their first scan? I’m worried


Would love to hear your experiences! 💕
