What’s in your hospital bag?

We’ve all googled it, I know I did, like 20 times! But below is a list of what I really needed! 
**I was in hospital 2.5 days so this might change depending on your birth.**

Welcome!

Hello everyone and welcome my Blog! I’m Lillian, aka the Yorkshire mum. I have a beautiful little family and currently growing baby number 2! I have thought about starting a mum blog for a long time as both an outlet for me but also a support network for new and existing mums.  Here at yorkshire mama you will find lots of information and tips I’ve learnt so far along the way.

Hopefully the things I share will help...
