What's in Baby's Hospital Bag?


Yesterday I wrote all about what I have packed in my hospital bag and today it's Baby's turn. I was really happy with the response I got to yesterdays post as I was given some great tips and advice so thank you for sharing them with me. Hopefully you can do the same with this post too! 

As I previously said I decided to pack two separate bags for Baby and I, just so everything was divided and easier to look through when we need to.  

Below I have listed what I have packed for him. I have my heart set on breast feeding but I am also packing for in case I prefer to express. If you notice I have missed something then please let me know as I would rather have everything I could possibly need than forget a certain something.

Vests x4 in newborn and 0-3.
Sleepsuits x4 in newborn and 0-3.
Pramsuit in 0-3.

Review: The Baby Box Company



The Baby Box Company is a Mother and Daughter run business which was inspired by the birth of their Son and Grandson Harry. They really wanted to do something modern and new when it comes to personalised gifts and so The Baby Box Company was born! Out with the old and in with the new, no more pinks for girls and blue for boys. They specialise in funky bright unisex gifts that Mum's really want and need. 

I was very excited when the prospect of reviewing one of their boxes came to my attention. Not only do I love personalised gifts and baby boxes but I am also one of those people who sways away from the traditional blues for boys. 


I was sent the Really Useful Box for the purpose of this review. The box was presented beautifully, in a hard cardboard presentation box and all tied up with a big red bow. I loved their logo in the corner. I find the whole branding to be fresh, bold and cool. It's a brand that stands out and that you will remember. 


The personalised message inside was a lovely touch. I just had to take a photo.
Thank you Chloe and Chris!


What's inside the box?

Aden & Anais Super Stars Swaddle: A swaddle was on my to buy list so I was very happy when I saw this in my box! This Aden & Anais muslin swaddle is 100% cotton and with an attractive bold star design. This will be perfect for swaddling, burping, changing and nursing my baby when he arrives! 

The Baby Box Company Red Bodysuit: This bodysuit made me smile when I opened the box as I am a huge cat lover. 
It's so hard to come across a cat design that boys can get away with so I'm extremely happy with it. Not only is the bodysuit 100% cotton too but it is also exclusive to The Baby Box Company and made here in the UK!

Sock Ons: I have heard brilliant things about these little Sock ons! I can't wait to try them out on our little one. If he is anything like his Dad then he would be losing his socks constantly but not with Sock Ons. You simply put them on over your babies socks and it keeps them in place, no pulling them off and no more lost socks! Brilliant!

Gogo Toys Wooden Rattle: A round wooden rattle surrounded by brightly coloured beads with a little bell in the middle. It looks like great fun! Not a toy he will be able to use straight away but a nice little something to put away for when he's a little older.


All this for £25. 
Well worth it in my opinion. All very useful and excellent quality products.  

 The Baby Box Company have been a pleasure to deal with and I would recommend them and their goodies to everyone. Their boxes would make an ideal gift or just a treat to yourself!
