Probably a silly question but why do you need body suits and sleepsuits? I was thinking just the sleepsuits might be better for a newborn. Oh Lordy, Lord I know nothing!!!

I packed mine at 32wks, then redid them several times up to 36wks when i knew i had everything i needed plus some things i didn't!!
I'd also suggest you freeze some bottled water to take with you, hospital water is normally warm & manky tasting!
Good luck

p.s. Oh and don't forget an old night shirt or t-shirt or something to wear during labour, and if you are planning on b.feeding make sure your pj's are east access!
