Hopefulyl Stacey answers as she was the last one to deliver there. When I was there 3 years ago they provided everything. ------------- I was a puree feeder, forward facing, cot sleeping, pram pushing kind of Mum... and my kids survived! |

| They provide pretty much everything except breast pads. So plenty of nappies and maternity pads. They have flannels for wipes. And if you run out you just ask for more. You also get to keep whatever is left in your room when you plan on going home. And they give you gowns if you wanna wear those to save dirtying your own clothes which is what I do so I didn't have to take hardly anything to hospital. It all fitted into a backpack. |

Yeah I definitely agree with A&Csmum, the food was pretty reasonable, but never enough. Pack some of your own and make lots of milo's and toast.
Just before I left I asked for more pads and more nappies so I had a wee stash to take home (naughty I know), but the hospital pads are the best!! -------------
