Hospital Bag Checklist

A pre-filled packing list so you're ready when the moment comes — with a gentle reminder as your due date approaches.

Everything pre-filled for you

The checklist comes loaded with over 25 commonly recommended items across four categories: things for you, things for baby, important documents, and items for your partner or support person. Nothing to set up — just start ticking things off.

How it works

  • Tap to tick — tap any item to mark it packed. Tap again to unpack it.
  • Progress bar — see at a glance how close you are to being fully packed.
  • Add your own items — got something specific your midwife recommended? Add it to any category.
  • Due-date reminder — a gentle banner appears when you're within 8 weeks of your due date, prompting you to start packing.
  • Reset anytime — used the bag and want a fresh list? Reset to defaults with one tap.

Categories included

  • For you — nightwear, toiletries, snacks, phone charger, and more
  • For baby — going-home outfit, nappies, blanket, and essentials
  • Documents — birth plan, maternity notes, ID, and insurance
  • Partner / support — snacks, a change of clothes, camera, and more
