What to bring

 

You don’t need to bring too much for your little one, here are a few suggestions:

  • Newborn nappies
  • Cotton wall/wipes
  • Baby grows and vests
  • Muslin
  • A couple of hats
  • A blanket for the car seat when leaving hospital
  • Any colostrum you have expressed, keep this in a freezer bag, named and with the date and time you expressed. On arrival at the hospital give it to a member of staff who will store it in the freezer for you
  • If you have chosen to formula feed you will need to bring a formula feeding starter pack which includes the bottles and teats
