We are required to take the birthing class at my hospital. And I took a breastfeeding class on my own. I got a lot out of it. Its nice to hear advice and be able to ask your questions. Mt bag I packed: clothes for me, clothes for my husband, deoderant for both, tooth brushes, toothpaste, shampoo& conditioner, body wash, slippers for me, lotion(helped for back rubs during labor), snacks like trail mix and dried bananas. For babies: boppy pillow, onsies and pajamas for in hospital, going home outfit, socks, hats, mittens, blankets, a full diaper bag with diapers, wipes, extra clothes, burp rags, diaper cream. If you have a boy and are circumcizing you need gauze pads and vasoline for that. My hospital did provide pads for me, diapers and wiped for baby. And gave a hat and some onsies.
I'm sure I forgot something.....
I have done all three classes my doctors office provides them
I don't have my hospital bag yet.. and I went to a breastfeeding class it was good advice
