Hospital Bag

Hey ladies...
So I have 12 weeks left.
I am going on holiday in 4 weeks time.
I will obviously be away from home.
Is it worth me packing a hospital bag just incase to take on my trip? If baby decides to come early I won't have anything to hand.
We are fully prepared now and have everything else we need.

Thanks ❤️

I would say it depends on how far away you are going. I would say definitely have it ready just to give you peace of mind. I haven’t started packing mine yet but I am going to pack it by the time I’m 35 weeks xx

We are going to be 2 hours away from home and taking my 6yo step daughter.
I wasnt going to pack much here at home as I live next door to the birthing centre we are planning on using.
However if anything happens on holiday it'll be Bournemouth or Southampton hospital probably and I don't particularly like big hospitals so thinking of packing more things as home isnt exactly close by x

Has anybody else been in this situation

I’m 36 weeks, I have gestational diabetes (that I’m managing very well) and anemia, my baby is 8 pounds and 3 ounces, I asked my doctor if we could discuss an induction, I feel like I’m being forced and idk what to do

Boobs leaking

How do you guys deal with your boobs leaking at night? I find it hard to wear clothes to bed but then the sheets and mattress are getting soaked! Any ideas what can I do?

Fandom baby names

Anyone else find it cringey or hate it when people name their kids after something from a popular book, TV show or film?

Like when everyone was naming their kids from Game of Thrones or now I keep seeing ACOTAR names (love love love the ACOTAR books but no way was I going to name my child Rysand 🤪)

Partner doesn’t drive – any advice?

I’m due in November with my first baby, and we live around 35 minutes from the hospital. My partner doesn’t drive, and him passing before the baby arrives isn’t an option, so I’m just wondering if anyone else has been in the same situation? How did you manage getting to the hospital when you went into labour, and do you have any tips or advice? 🤍
