IT’S only a matter of weeks until 19-year-old Millie Radford welcomes baby Ophelia – and naturally, the pregnant teen has turned to her mum Sue for advice.
The mother-daughter duo filmed a video for the family’s YouTube channel where they packed Millie’s hospital bag in preparation for the birth.
And unsurprisingly, Sue had a few pearls of wisdom to share with Millie before she becomes a mum herself.
Commenting on the “big pants” Millie is taking to the hospital, Sue joked: “You’ll be able to tuck your big mum belly in that! It will be really flabby.”
What’s more, the mum also recommended that she take some comfy PJs, slippers and a dressing gown with her.
And while Millie was holding up her pink Dumbo nightie she plans to wear while she’s in labour, her dad Noel chimed in and said: “That is huge!”
Other essentials in Millie’s hospital bag includes some dry shampoo, travel sized shampoo and conditioner, breast pads, sanitary towels, shower gel, deodorant, a toothbrush and some hair bands.
Holding up a tube of Nivea lip balm, the mum-to-be added: “This is apparently a life saver.”
In response, Sue said: “Yes you’ll need that because if you’re on gas and air, your lips get really dry.”
And for when Ophelia arrives, Millie also made sure to stock up on nappies, wipes and onesies – as Sue recommended taking more than enough in case they have to stay in hospital longer.
Earlier this week, Millie joked that she was “impatiently” waiting for Ophelia’s arrival after her baby shower.
Sharing a sweet snap of her cradling her blooming baby bump in the adorable nursery, Millie captioned the snap with her completed checklist of baby-related errands.
She wrote: “Baby room , Pram , Car seat , Hospital bag , Coming home outfit , Impatient mummy , Baby O… pending. We’re ready when you are little one.”
Millie’s mum Sue welcomed her 22nd baby earlier this year and the pregnant teen is still living at home with the family.
She recently confessed: “It’s weird that my baby will have an aunt who is only five months older. But it means they’ll hopefully be really close.”
