- toiletries (shampoo, toothbrush, etc..)
*If you are breastfeeding do pack your:
- nipple cream
- baby bottles
- breastfeeding wipes
- breast pump equipment, etc..
I didn’t bring mine last year n baby got admitted to nicu due to emergency, the situation was a mess and stressful when u need something that’s not there. So best to just bring.

- Nb pampers (they usually provide this but I’ll just bring a few)
- Nb wipes (small)
- Day 1 baby clothes

*All packed in a separate ziplock bag..
Each ziplock bag item :
- 1 sleepsuits

- bip
- a pair of socks
For Dad :
