Getting ready for labor.

This is my first child, and I wasn't sure what to pack in my bag that I will be taking to the hospital with me. Any suggestions would be helpful :)

Bring snacks! For you and your support person. And hard candies to suck on during labor, trust me it will help. Also, find out what the hospital you're delivering at supplies for the baby. Some do everything, some do nothing.
