As days draw closer, I just can't wait to meet lil' sunshine. Hence, I think its time to pack my bags. But what should I really pack? Hm...I'll show you mine and lemme know what shud be added.
1. CryoCord Kit
Dun Play Play, we payed so much for this. Can't afford to miss this out.
2. Maternity Pad
My SIL advice was to get the L O N G E S T heavy flow night use pad I could possible find in the market. Since I'm so yim chim (fussy), I don't think I'll like the hospital pad so I got myself pads which must be COTTONY SOFT plus WINGS.
SOFY has this 40.5 cm pad, I checked out all the supermarkets and could only find 35cm. :(
As for INTIMATE, the length is 33.8cm but what I like about it was its SUPER WIDE BACK PROTECTION. That's why I bought it to give it a try.
POISE is another pad that I would recommend to friends. I call this the Stand-By-Pad. It comes really useful when your water bag has broken. Just get a small pack will do. I'm sure you do not want to soak your car seat with 'baby juice'.
3. Disposable Maternity Underwear
I can imagine how messy it will be after delivery. I don't think you want to get your sexy pretty panties stained, do you?
4. Nursing Bra
5. Breast Pads
Since face mask was a hit during this flu pandemic, you can replace it with N95 Face Mask! Since they look so similar.
6. Sarongs
7. Socks-2 pairs
8. Button shirts/ Front opening shirt
9. Small Towel for sponge bath
10. Fresh Clean Set of going home outfit. I'm going to bring my cap along, bcoz I don't want to look like Mother Mary. I remembered I saw one new mommy wearing baby towel like a tudung in the hospital lobby while waiting for discharged, just to avoid our body from masuk angin. Nope! I will not want to look like that.
11. Toiletries - Facial Wash, Toothbrush, toothpaste, moisturiser
12. Snacks & Energy Drink
Friends advice: Before you go in for delivery. Drink one bottle of this. It is said to give u more energy wah...i dunno how true is this.
13. Herbs
Don't ask me bout this. It was prepared by my MIL and I know she wants me to take this after delivery.
14. Tissue Paper
According to SIL, hospital provide very low quality tissue paper or toilet roll. Its best to bring our own soft tissue to wipe our sore *ahem*.
15. Music
Its for sunshine. Just wanna get him something familiar, sense of security. Disc 1 is his favorite.
16. Baby's Bag - booties, mittens, towels, bodysuits, towel, disposable diapers.
15. Last But Not Least, ANOTI !!
How can I not bring him along. He'll be the one who is going to prepare the gadgets like camera, viewcam, handphone charger.

DianaQ
wahh..i also cant wait to see lil' sunshine!!:D
Marie, do let me know if you wanna try out the cloth pad (it is really comfortable for your confinement especially if you have stiches down there. washing is a breeze just like how you wash your panties).
btw, where did you get your sarongs? they are really pretty!!
good choice bringing own pad. The ones they give are super bulky, no wings & u gotta tie around...dino-age pad man O.o
advice to bring WET WIPERS as well....coz newly born bb's 大便 is hard to clean only wit tissue !!!
