I think she means that you might be kept in so have your stuff ready! the baby clothes, nappies etc. Also nightie for you, a clean towel, dressing gown, socks, slippers, loose change for the phone etc. tooth brush, tooth paste, maternity pads, breast pads and anything else you might need.
Hope this helps.
