How many outfits are you planning on packing? I’ve got a newborn going home outfit and a slightly bigger size in case that is too small but don’t know how many others to take? Also how many muslins have you packed? I can’t decide!!

I think I've packed x3 1st size n x3 newborn n about 3/4 muslins ... tho going to go through it again through the week ... as I don't know gender I've packed white n a blue n pick outfit for going home/photos in xx

I've packed 2 small and 2 large muslins and I think 3 or 4 baby grows

My baby was naked the whole time and in the hospitals swaddle blankets other then when I took pictures. My baby always had a hat and mittens on though.

I packed 2 newborn and 2 0-3 months outfits and one Muslins. My baby was naked most of the time since we did a lot of skin to skin and they suggested them be naked when breastfeeding

I packed 3 baby grows, 3 body suits, 1 hat and 1 muslin but ended up having an emergency c section and staying in hospital for 4 days so had to get my partner to bring more clothes. I'd say if you can fit a few more in your bag then do, just in case you need them!

There are some really good ‘hospital bag kit lists’ online.
I just followed one of those 👍

You literally don’t need as much as people say or think! I took two big bags and didn’t use most of it made life so much harder with extra baggage. I’d say take around 2 of everything. You’ll need more nappies & ready milk more than anything x

I've packed 1 newborn, 1 up to 1 month and 1 0-3, 1 smaller muslin and 1 muslin swaddle one :)

I’ve got 2 newborn. 1 first month and 2 0-3 outfits . I’ve got 3 Muslim cloths and one bib packed I think x
