A set of going home clothes for yourself and maybe a set of clothes so you can wander around and not be in your nighty. Also I found that the wet flushably toilet wipes are awesome after you have bub, the dry scratchy toilet paper that hospitals have is horrid and doesn't do anything for down there when you have just had a bub. Also all your admission papers or what not. I put everything on a list so I can double check then check it again.

I brought my own pillow when I was hospitalized at 30 weeks. It's so much more comfy than their raggidy pillows lol. I hope your hospital has comfy pillows :(

Oh and for baby. You may want to bring a small can of formula. If for some reason breast feeding doesnt work out hospitals provide formula. But its nice to keep them on the same brand you would want to use at home. So if youd like to choose the brand bring your own :)

Pillow might not be needed. Idk how your hospital is. But for health reasons (i think to prevent bed bugs) we are not allowed to bring blankets or pillows from home.
