    Watching this while am having a sleepless night... My back is aching and am waiting for my big miracle in 5 weeks time. Praying for all babies born during this Corona pandemic. God's going to protect us and our babies ❤️

      kween x lolz I’m almost 33 weeks, it’s going too fast for me i don’t feel prepared. Having this baby after 14 years of trying, fertility treatments and spending thousands. I’m so grateful, but for me it’s just going too fast. I just don’t feel prepared 🤷🏻‍♀️, confused all over the place. And lazy as a slug lolz.

    During my first pregnancy I watched many pregnancy essential videos and took so much stuff to the hospital, only to find out that they provide you with literally everything in that suitcase here in Germany. I dint have to use a single thing I took for the baby until the day we brought him home. Also there were mesh underwears and heavy duty pads for the mothers. Except of course toiletries and phone chargers and pj's etc. But I still watch these videos cuz it's so organised and makes me calm 😊

    im guessing the hospitals in the UK are different from the US. In the US, they provide onsies and diapers and wipes while you are there, all you need is a bringing home outfit for the baby, and a carseat. Also they give you a hat as soon as the baby is born, either blue or pink. And if you don't want to breastfeed, they give you already made formula in one use bottles.

      I guess it's because healthcare is private in the US, so seeing as you've paid/you're paying, you get hose extra luxuries. In the UK, it's 100% FREE to have a baby in a hospital, so I guess we don't have those added benefits.

  • @mc_4k305
    @mc_4k305 8 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Very organised hospital bag! Love the idea of change for the car park!
    For home birth, lots of old towels and I bought hot water bottles to layer inbetween so they were warm as the heating wasn't on as it was summer.
    Loads of candles to create ambience and aromatherapy atomiser with calming or energising oils depending how things are going. Lots of absorbent bedmats to put on the couch immediately after birth (when most messy!). Old bed sheets and plastic decorating covers/tarpaulin for furniture and floor during labour so you can move around freely without worrying about ruining furniture etc. I had a birth pool so I put tarpaulin on the floor and layered fleece blankets on top so it wasn't slippy but the floor was protected. Tea, coffee and biscuits for midwives. Sure your midwife has filled you in on what you need also. Such an exciting time! Good luck xx

    hi Emily, first I wish you a smooth labor and delivery...second, for the maternity stay in September ! I had the same thought that hospitals usually hot for little ones but when I gave birth to my little girl it was so cold and the hospital didn't turn the heaters on cuz they have a central heating system that is programmed for specific dates !! it was freezing at night and my little lost so much weight cuz she was burning all the breast milk for heating and still was cold my poor little angel!...I didn't know back then cuz she is my first baby! but I just wanted you to know so you can check with your hospital about it !...sorry it's long comment, I hope you read it.. hugs and kisses

    Very good video! I think in most countries the maternity bag is the same. In Romania, some hospitals give you a list with what you should bring. It's mostly the same. For the mother: clothes for 3 days, undergarments (disposable ones if you can), brest pump (if you have one), cosmetics and hygene products (as you please). For the baby: clothes for 3 days, pampers, wet wipes, rash cream, shower gel.
