Hi Rachrobin,
I was savagely hungry right after delivery (As most would agree its quite a workout bringing your bundle of joy into this world :) and the next few days following. I had packed lots of healthy snacks, fruits/ juice and milk in my hospital bag. I also took along ear plugs and sleep mask which proved quite useful since I was in the general ward.
I think you forgot to add wet wipes, bath wash and shampoo in your baby bag. Also take your own drinking water if you don't want to drink boiling hot water the hospital provides.
You also might need extra maternity pads, matress pads and diapers but no worries you can buy them at 7/11 downstairs.
PS: The hospital accepted only one brand of matress pads (Yellow packet), which was available at 7/11 downstairs. They asked for it right after delivery, so my husband had to run downstairs to get it, you might want to have it ready with you in the labour room.
Wish you the very best :)
