Hospital bag.
can you ladies tell me if I'm missing anything based off your experience? So I figure the hospital provides most. I packed: a few nightgowns, comfortable clothes, travel size toiletries and hygiene products, lotion, Chapstick, slippers, nursing bras, nursing pillow. I bought maxi pads and underwear but I figure the hospital provides these things, as well as diapers and wipes for baby. I'll also bring him some clothes and a going home outfit. What else am I missing? FTM, due in 4 weeks, any advice helps!
The only things I packed that you didn't mention were throat lozenges, I read that labor can wear out your voice and throat. Also some snacks especially for my husband. Some money in singles, again for snacks and vending machine stuff. Breast pads in case the hospital doesn't provide them. Also things I may want for labor like my ipod and headphones, chargers for phone and camera. I also suggest bringing your own pillow because hospital pillows suck. I also packed for my husband, I know that this is about me, but I need him to be comfortable so he can support me completely so he gets his own pillow, comfy clothes, snacks, energy drinks and money for coffee along with toiletries like deoterant and tooth brush. For baby all I'm bringing is a go home outfit and a picture outfit and a blanket for pictures and the carseat.
