The hospital give you the diapers and wipes

That's a lot of stuff. Does your hospital not provide these things? Most do. Many also prefer you not tale them out of hospital clothing until it's time to leave.

I recommend using the hospital's linen for the baby and just taking a onesie or two and your going home outfit. (Receiving blankets and blanket too). Saves you from having to wash all of what he soaks when you get him home. That's just what my L&D unit said was good. They supply all the things he will need while there and send a few things home with.

Always pack at least 6 outfits or sleepers for baby. Between peeing, pooping, and nursing baby will go through them so fast. Newborns use 8-10 diapers a day so if you stay the average 2 days in hospital make sure you have at least 20 diapers.  Seems like a lot but boy, do they go through them. I learned the hard way with my first how much they need at the hospital. 3 kids under 4 I'm a hospital bag pro hahaha. Make sure you have nursing pads, heavy maxi pads, shampoo, conditioner, and body wash for yourself.  Also, cheap plastic flip flops come in handy when you use the hospital showers since the floors can be gross. Best of luck!

I think 34 35 weeks is a good time to pack it that's when I packed mine at 35 weeks I just put the rest of his stuff in there today that I brought
