How much to bring to the birth center for NB

Ok so I have all of our bags packed and waiting for the baby!

I packed the soon to be baby outside my body bag and I have about 24 prefolds a few fitteds and covers to cycle through wool and PUL.

Does that sound like enough????

We are planning an out of hospital birth center birth with midwives so I am not expecting to stay that long after the birth. And I for the life of me cannot remember how often I changed Riley when she was a newborn. Plus we were doing disposables in a hospital then.

Oh any my worst fear is a hospital transfer....eeek! I am going to be adamant about no disposables touching my baby's skin. Has anyone done CD in the hospital?

yeah, i would even say that's overkill. don't they only pee once the first day?

i don't remember with dd but ds only peed once the first night and then it wasn't until the next morning that he peed again and the meconium came...

ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooh, i could sit here and think about their newborn days for hours...
