Bring a lot of snacks (that's applicable for post-natal diet), biscuits etc. I woke up from surgery in the middle of the night and was crazy hungry.
If you're delivering at govt hospital (not sure about private) bring newborn baby diapers and baby oil. They will use the baby oil to clean baby for the first time. Also a swaddle cloth.
Bring DVT or flight socks if you have.
I don't think you need pajamas, you will hospital clothes all the time until you discharge. For discharge, bring a comfortable, non restricting clothes. You will never know if you went in for natural birth and ended up with c-section.
Get an extra blanket from the nurse, it might get colder at night.
Bring small syringe with the stopper, you might need them to keep the colustrum for baby.

Ok thank u, I will pack some chips. What's a DVT?

I heard doctor can help press your stomach until baby in correct position for normal delivery.

How's your little boy? is he still in hospital? My heart breaks too when u said they took blood test from his small hand

So cute

Try plain crackers or oat crackers. Chips have too much salt.
Did you try the music and the yoga pose to turn baby's head?

My baby is still in hospital and we're spending every day at the hospital to accompany him. Just need to wait for weight to reach 1.8kg.
