i was induced in holles st and had 2 bags. you can have both in unit 3 (thank god, i was there for 2 days!) but have to leave the bigger one behind in storage when you go to the labour ward. having said that, you don't really need anything for the labour ward except maybe a change of nighty in case you puke and a nappy for baby and your camera and phone, so a tiny bag will do there.
they had birthing balls when i was there but think i heard they might be gone. i'd bring one but leave it in the car and ask when you arrive so your hubby can get it before he drops the car home or whatever.
