Well, I had macaroni cheese for lunch and a glass of chocolate milk. The macaroni was the instant microwave kind, so I had to let it stand for a little while so that the sauce could thicken. I also like a little bit of parmesan cheese on top of my macaroni, and so took this out of the fridge at the same time as the chocolate milk. Poured myself a glass of chocolate milk, put the jug back in the fridge and the glass (now with chocolate milk in it) down on the counter next to the macaroni, and just stood there waiting for a bit. The next thing you know, I feel thirsty (didn't get stuck into the choc milk straight away), so I picked up what I *thought* was my glass and put it to my mouth - only it *wasn't* the chocolate milk but the canister of parmesan cheese. D'oh ! Luckily the lid was shut on the canister or I literally would have got a mouthful Had a good giggle to myself, and was quite thankful nobody else actually saw me do it LOL]]> Mon, 12 Jun 2006 19:00:18 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=2787&PID=52277&title=yes-another-hospital-bag-thread#52277 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=2787&PID=52247&title=yes-another-hospital-bag-thread#52247 Author: daikini

I took a huggies travel pack full of wipes...but as I mentioned before Hospital did not give us any wipes at all.....and I found that the first poos are all sticky and green and it took me several wipes to get her cleaned off properly so the travel pack was finished very quickly. I ended up asking my hubby to bring the 160pack bag of wipes from home! Nappies how ever was not a problem...I was given loads from the hospital....so you might not even need any...but keep a small pack! ]]> Mon, 12 Jun 2006 11:19:28 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=2787&PID=52078&title=yes-another-hospital-bag-thread#52078 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=2787&PID=51972&title=yes-another-hospital-bag-thread#51972 Author: jax

LOL Robyn I haven't turned on my computer all day until now, but we did our fortnightly grocery shop this morning and I saw those travel packs of Pams wipes and grabbed one ! I also now have some small containers for my shampoo and conditioner - yay for "smidgets" LOL (Geez, I'm ALREADY making tupperware jokes!) Will probably take out the nappies I've put in there too. And as there is a chemists attached to the Pak n Save we go to in Albany, I picked up some Arnica and Tea Tree oil, so am *almost* all packed as well ! ]]> Sun, 11 Jun 2006 18:16:49 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=2787&PID=51972&title=yes-another-hospital-bag-thread#51972 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=2787&PID=51955&title=yes-another-hospital-bag-thread#51955 Author: Two Blondinis

If you're at Birthcare Jax I wouldn't bother with nappies - they supply Huggies, and there are so many of them around that I even managed to pinch a couple of packs to take home
They don't supply wipes tho, they supply nappy liners instead to use as wipes which I found a bit dry and scratchy. ]]> Sat, 10 Jun 2006 15:07:27 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=2787&PID=51854&title=yes-another-hospital-bag-thread#51854 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=2787&PID=51845&title=yes-another-hospital-bag-thread#51845 Author: daikini

DO you perhaps have little bottles around the house that you could just transfer the shampoo or conditioner into???

And next time you are at the supermarket grab some plastic bags (like the gladbag thingys) and then you can shove some wipes in there. Otherwise, just snake some from the pick'n'mix bins

I took a pack of nappies and a small pack of wipes (about 30 I think).]]> Sat, 10 Jun 2006 13:27:39 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=2787&PID=51827&title=yes-another-hospital-bag-thread#51827 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=2787&PID=51826&title=yes-another-hospital-bag-thread#51826 Author: jax

I won't put up my whole list though as it is pretty similar to Toni's, but there were a few things I wanted to quickly ask about. I know that the hospital or birthing centre will usually provide nappies and wipes for your stay, but I am planning on taking a few anyway "just in case". The question is, how many ?? More so for the wipes than the nappies, have already got them sorted. However, the packs of wipes I have are quite big (80's), and can't really be split up. Ideas?

Also, at home we only use shampoo and conditioner that come in really big bottles, can anyone recommend a good brand and where to get some travel sized ones?

Actually, that's about it. Thought I had more to ask, but it will probably come to me later ! LOL ]]> Sat, 10 Jun 2006 13:24:12 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=2787&PID=51826&title=yes-another-hospital-bag-thread#51826
