I think I've gotten most of the items above - just need to sort them out, washed them with the baby laundry detergent and then pack it nicely into a bag or two.

Bun I oni brought my maternity pads, disposable undies, towel, toothbursh n toothpaste, discharge clothes, a set of bb's clothes, mittens n booties. No need for diapers cos the hospital will provide... actually there are many things that the hospital provides, so my hospital bag's generally pretty empty.
Ya, tt's why I put there if the hospital don't provide mah.
My list partially adapted from TMC (where we must bring our own night gowns) as well as a general checklist, since not everyone will go to the same place to deliver - or are as fortunate as us =)
Need to get my hubby to pack his things also, although here in Singapore, it's just a drive away, so not so bad if need to go home to pick up some stuff.
Yes, get hb to pack his stuff too. get ready ur hospital bag, n juz dump it in the car, that's wat i did. n when my water bag burst, we juz drove to KKH.
