Hospital Bag

So im only 29 weeks pregnant but I am already thinking about my hospital bag as I like to be prepared. I have no idea how much is too much to pack or what to pack as I keep hearing different things. Any tips or help would be much appreciated. I'm from the UK.

I'm 27 weeks pregnant & I started packing my bag last week as I am the same way. I like to be prepared as well! I mainly started packing it early because I was in a minor car accident last week & my contractions have increased significantly since then. So I'm trying to prepare myself in case of preterm labor. As far as what to pack, you will need the essentials. Bathroom materials, overnight clothing after delivery, socks, a robe if u desire, slippers, change of clothes to go home in. U will also need the following baby things- clothes, baby beanie, mittens, socks, receiving blanket, diapers. Those r just a few things I can think of. I'm sure ur doctor can tell u what else to bring. Good luck with packing!

Baby: mittens, hats, pj's, a couple outfits, hair/nail kit, receiving blankets, baby blanket, socks. Hospital usually provides diapers, wipes, and little lotions etc.

Mom: sweats or PJs, socks, slippers, big underware, nursing bra, toothbrush/ toiletries, phone charger, hair ties, nursing cover. The hospital should provide pads and disposable panties.
