Hi mums,
I’m quite upset. I have to be admitted at 31 weeks due to small growth in my third baby.
I have two kids and a husband. I don’t know what t do as my kid’s will fret and miss me. I don’t know what to bring to hospital. Any suggestions?? Any experiences?? Help

My friend was in hospital from 21 weeks and then her baby was there for 2.5 months after being born. Her 2 yr old struggled but it was harder on her than the 2 year old actually. Take books, arts and crafts, movies and plan for video calls. Use time now to pre cook some meals so your hubby can easily feed the kids so he has them there more during visiting hours (if that's an option).
I’ve been admitted for weeks stays for subsequent pregnancies, I honestly thought my kids wouldn’t cope - they’re real mummies girls but they did great and so did my husband.
Pack entertainment for yourself - they days are very long.
Pack the normal post pregnancy needs and If (a big if) I hope you’re baby does come early the first few days will be in an isolate so won’t need clothes. Best and less have amazing ranges of premmie / small clothes
What was your issue as to why you were in bed rest?
How come you got admitted?
