I've sent them an email so hopefully they will respond next week!
Just confused as to why they didn't mention anything yesterday.
It was a very quick appointment in and out within 15 mins.
All she done was ask if I had any medical conditions, if I've ever been pregnant before, have ever had surgery, any history of diabetes in my family, took blood pressure, done the scan said everything was fine come back in 3 weeks and that was it.

I do find you've to prompt questions with any appointments as they are a revolving door and see many pregnant people so I ask the questions if I think about it or I usually take notes on my phone and being them in to ask.

Looking for changing bag ideas?? I find them very expensive and I’m thinking a large handbag/tote from pennys/primark would be just as good with a smaller toiletries bag to keep things tidy inside it..

I treated myself to a long champ tote but 100% a cheaper one would do the job just fine! I've got smaller bags then for organising

I bought a vintage Little Bird changing bag for aesthetic purposes but realistically will end up using my Vans backpack, it has lots of inside pockets and is internally waterproof (plastic coating)

I got mine from Aldi in one of their Baby Events. Think it was £20. It's great, has an insulated pocket on the front, two exterior side pockets, two interior side pockets plus three small pockets and a wee zip to access from the back. I find it really handy having a backpack because I can chuck it on and have use of both hands, whereas I find totes tend to slide off my shoulders. Worthwhile keeping your eye out 😊

I got a backpack changing bag from Asda.
Fitted everything I needed (and more in) for my twins & kept it nice and organised as its a scramble looking for two of the same thing 🤣 only cost me £15!

We’ve got a changing bag with our travel system but it looks really boring 😅 I think I’m going to donate it to a grandparent and buy something nicer/more practical.

Anyone have any good hold-all recommendations for my own stuff for taking into hospital? Every one that I have ordered is either too big or too small. Cant find a happy medium. That doesn’t cost a bomb either as not something I’d use often. Just using the babies changing backpack for his things x

Agree with the other posters who say a cabin sized suitcase / wheely case. That's what I'm taking for my stuff and then have put baby's stuff in the changing bag which is a backpack-style one.

Also a regular bag for life for the snacks 😅

2 days away from my due date, woken up this morning and it feels like baby has gone right up into my ribs, moreso than he's been for ages!

Um, sweetheart, the exit is down, not up 🫠
