My hospital (I think all in Scotland) no longer supply you with nappies(diapers) so you have to take your own. So not ALL hospitals provide things you need.
Best to ask the hospital what they will provide so you don't over pack and have to carry a heavier bag :)

Sry was having an anxiety attack when posted that earlier so prly should not have I was simply saying yes hospital provides stuff but if you have an extremely sensitive skinned baby like our family does then their crap isn't good enough lol bc their crappy Johnson and johnson cancer causing crap has fragrance in it. Can't use it on my babies not that I would if I could.

Maybe this category should be divided into two kinds of people:  

1.  People who bring everything they need to a nice  hotel and
2.  People who know nice hotels have soap,  shampoo, towels,  lotion, blow driers,  etc.

So maybe the moms should figure that out.  If you want to bring all your own stuff,  do that.

If you want to relax and let the hospital provide nice stuff,  do that.

Seriously? We're allowed to well pretty much w.e we want at our hospital. No nurse is going to bathing my baby my husband and I will be doing and not till next day (the coating they are born with is extremely healthy for their skin also prevents dry skin so screw nasty lotion with crap on it). Also ill be delivering at a different hospital than lay time and no one ever said you had to have baby in their clothes!? My child wasn't nor will this one. Plus if your kids have sensitive skin like mine do that crapy Johnson and Johnson stuff will screw then right up we bring our own baby wash. Also being everything weeks so ik what itx was washed in. Nothing about this.post was meant to be derogatory towards original poster just confused y some people think every hospitol is the same. Check with your hospital see what they provide and then decide what you want and need. :-)
