okay mommas! there are SO many lists on this so I thought I'd just ask y'all: necessary items to bring in your hospital…

They supply medical underwear (mesh material), pads, Soap, shampoo, tooth brush and tooth paste, nipple ointment, medical gown. For baby: They provide, diapers, wipes, butt paste, and a night gown.

This is what I packed. Highwaisted underwear I didn't like the medical ones, one comfy night gown, pillow (learned the hard way this last time that if the labor ward is busy they can run out of pillows), make up (if you wish for pictures and guests), brush, hair ties and headbands, toiletries, flip flops for the shower, slippers, CHAPSTICK!, going home outfit... something comfortable and high waisted in case of a c-section I just wore a maxi dress, chargers, tablets and phone along with medical cards etc.

for baby: Outfit for pictures, going home outfit, diaper bag for going home and a blanket for nursing and to wrap. That's it. The hospital likes to use their own gowns.

@nichole_lynn, didn't even think of extra onesies!! thank you!

bring lots of extra onsies and long sleeve ones, hospital rooms tend to be on the chilly side. and night gowns our comfy jammies for you and an extra pillow is always nice. toothbrush, razor, shampoo, soap and extra undies. snacks too! :)

check on pinterest they tell you what you need and don't need to pack 😊
