I thought of some other things. Fluids will be important if she has diarrhea and/or vomiting. I have always stayed with water, but others on this board have consumed electrolyte drinks and other beverages with success. Also, you may find that her appetite and food tastes vary daily or even hourly. At first, I drove my husband nuts trying to keep up with "Hey, this sounds good" or "I don't want that." We had all kinds of weird food in the kitchen! You might stock the kitchen this weekend and help your parents set up online grocery ordering. Finally, we have covered the couch I sit on with a waterproof mattress cover for any accidents. I haven't had any, but it's a good precaution.
