You should pack your bag in preparation
for your little one’s arrival at the beginning
of your third trimester. When packing, it’s
important to not just pack the essentials for
Baby – don’t forget all the things that you
will need for yourself.
Birth plan and questions
Once you arrive at the hospital, it’s very
likely that all those last-minute questions
that you wanted to ask your doctor will
be forgotten. Write down these questions
ahead of time and have the list with you,
together with a copy of your birth plan.
Clothes
It’s not just Baby who’s going to need
something to wear over the next couple of
days. You’ll get great comfort from having
a pair of your own comfy pyjamas, as well
as your own dressing gown and slippers.
We recommend that you have 2-3 frontopening cotton sleep shirts or night dresses
with you. Lastly, you’ll also need some day
clothes for when it’s time to head home.
you’re going to need) and add two packs of
maternity sanitary towels as well as some
breast pads. Don’t forget a pair of socks and
a couple of hairbands too.
Toiletries
A toiletry bag, your makeup, tissues, a
hairbrush and some lip balm are great
things to have with you, especially when
the visitors start arriving.
Books and magazines
Between feeds and naps, you may find
that you have some quiet time. Books and
magazines are a great way to pass the time.
Don’t forget Dad’s bag
Dad should be responsible for making sure
that he has all the relevant documentation
(such as ID cards and medical aid cards)
with him. He should also have a change of
clothes and toiletries for himself, as well as
snacks, phone chargers and a car seat for
the trip home.
Underwear
Having some nursing bras, perhaps some
sleeping bras too, can be convenient and
add to your comfort. Pack a few pairs of
spare underwear (more than you think
