Going to be a first time mom and I haven't packed my bag for when I go into labor. What do I take? And to all the mothers that have gone through this already, was there anything you forgot?

[bgarcia12]

I found this to be my ultimate checklist out of researching all the other things some women have taken.
For You: going home outfit, nursing bra, nursing pads, regular undies, socks & slippers, toilet paper (the hospitals tends to be quite rough) pads, robe, towel, cell & charger,  camera & charger, gum & candy, empty bag for taking home items, face wash , lotion, brush, hair tie, clips, tooth brush & paste, shampoo & condit., soap & scrubber, natural makeup products for pictures, deodorant, 2 pillows w. Cases (not white) ChapStick or lip gloss(your lips get very dry during labor), & laundry bag.

For baby: 3 take home outfits, socks, Beenie for every outfit, blanket, receiving blanket, & baby book.

For hubby: 2 pair undies, 2 pairs of basketball shorts, 2 pairs socks, sandals, 2 shirts, deodorant, toothbrush, 2 pair under shirts, cooler full of snacks for himself & maybe for u after birth, cell & charger.


Hope this helps!! Goodluck

You'll also want quick energy food & electolite drink for you if you're ae to eat or drink to give that extra little boost during labor. Essential oils such as lavendar, lemon, grapefruit, & peppermint. Lavendar works for all stages of labor while lemon & grapefruit are energizing during delivery & peppermint for if you get nauseous anytime during labor.

Lip balm, camera, extra underwear, extra baby outfit just in case, car seat installed, hat for baby, blanket for baby, cozy socks/slippers and jammies for you. Top or jammies you can nurse in. Good luck!
