Student midwife here! Love all your videos ❤ I just wanted to give you a heads up that products with witch hazel and “Spritz for bits” are not recommended as these products tend to break down stitches early and can cause big problems with healing! Wishing you all the best and can’t wait to hear how everything goes for you 🥰

@yanetdevis2876 11 ай бұрын

Any other recommendation? Or you mean that type of product in general?

@evadoran8202 11 ай бұрын

Spritz for Bits is safe to use on perineal wounds which have been stitched. It's approved by registered midwives and is made with a range of ingredients to prevent infection, soothe and promote healing!❤

@elisabethfreiheit3664 Жыл бұрын

Something I was glad to have were ear plugs. That's more for before the baby is born but my induction took several days/ nights and I had other women snoring really loudly in my room, so I was glad that I had those. Will definitely pack them again for Baby Nr. 2

I recommend that a baby hospital bag is a knitted hat to put with the first outfit so you can keep the two hats for the hospital stay and and one extra bow for the hospital pictures in the hospital stay and pack a cardigan to put on baby to come home in from the hospital and pack a extra one vest for any blow outs in your hospital stay

Hi Shan :) love watching these videos although my kids are teens now lol. I ended up with an emergency section twice so maybe think about if that happened having extra stuff ready for ash to bring in if needed. I was in for 4 days both times so needed more clothes for baby, more breast pads, maternity pads etc :) Also nursing bras are prob a good idea as you can open it so much easier xx

Both times the lucozade was my go too. I couldn't eat during labour at all so they really helped. Good luck my 2nd baby was so much quicker than 1st xx

I recommend it for a postpartum kit for the hospital stay at bringing tucks pads and and Frida mom witch hazel pad liners both of them are you best friend and Frida mom instant cooling ice pads are amazing after birth and always discreet adult nappies are amazing to after birth to fit everything you need in side the adult nappies and after ease drops in water are amazing to help with after birth contractions are brilliant after giving birth

@isabelwatts6224 Жыл бұрын

I recommend a towel for after the shower because the hospital ones are small and socks or slippers to walk around the corridor and flip flops are a must so your feet don't get dirty because the hospital showers are dirty and wireless headphones to listen to music in labour and your own pillow and blanket to make you more comfortable in the hospital bed and stay and for your toiletries must haves in hospital is face wipes and mouthwash so your breath don't stink and dry shampoo if you don't want to wash your hair in hospital and travel shampoo and conditioner is amazing to pack to make your more fresher after birth and if you change your mind and you want to wash your hair and you didn't have it with you and you will blame yourself

If you're thinking about trying breastfeeding I would get some comfy bras with snaps! I also really liked having a pair of slippers last time, although your slides would likely work as well.

I'm currently 23 weeks and my dad tried telling me at the weekend I need to sort out my hopsital bag now. I have watched a few videos to see what other people take but we've definitely got plenty of other things to do first.
