Pack your bags: your hospital bag essentials
When one of our OHbaby! team members went into labour two weeks early recently, she packed her hospital bag in such haste she took with her only lip balm, perfume, deodorant, one pair of knickers and her own pillow. They returned five minutes after setting off for hospital to grab the forgotten phone charger. All this to say, pack your hospital bag well in advance of going into labour and here’s a list to help you get all the essentials in order!
