did you pack much for your baby in your hospital bag? I have an outfit for her but not really sure she will need much else. Also, what did you pack for daddy? I have a change of clothes packed for him and essentials like toothbrush and stuff, but is there anything I might not have thought of?
@txyogagirl, that is such a good idea. I will definitely get her a hat
@fruitloop13, I packed 4 outfits and he never wore them we had skin to skin pretty much 24/7 I wore my gown backwards so I could be open in front all the time for dr checks and feeding and baby wore just a diaper and socks bc dr and nurses were always coming in to check one thing or another. I will say best thing to do if ur baby has to leave ur side for any reason is to put a different hat and blanket on baby my son never left room except for his circumcision and I sent my husband to check on him 10 mins after they took him and he couldn't tell him apart from other babies bc there was several at that moment. He said only one baby had a big bow and different blanket that was smart of that mom so she always knew what baby was hers. But your baby may never need to go to other areas of hospital or nursery but if baby does defiantly sent stuff to make him stand out
@mommyofdoubletrouble, maybe I'll pack 1 or 2 more things to be safe.
well you don't have too but I chose to dress my babies in their own clothes for my hospital stay.
I didnt know i should pack so many baby outfits! @mommyofdoubletrouble I only have one packed!
I only packed 3 outfits for my baby and 4 pairs of socks and like 6 mitten pairs other then that EVERYTHING is provided by your hospital.. for daddy I had 4 sets of comfy clothes underwear socks his bathroom essentials and his pillows that was all. and definitely pack snacks you tend to get hungry lol.
Baby socks baby mittens so they dont scratch their cute little defenseless faces lol...a couple of outfits, a couple of baby hats even tho the hospital has their own for you to use. Ive got a swaddle me in their. And a bottle just in case even tho she'll be breastfed just in case of latching issues. In my bag ive got comfy clothes just in case. Ive got socks a couple of pics that I like to use as "focal points" uhmm daddys got 3 changes of clothes some deodorant some socks a. book. Weve got snacks packed etc. we just like to be prepared for everything and anything lol. We over packed thats not even half of what weve got😂👌🏽💖💕💖💕💖
I packed a few mitts and hats. cute socks ands like 3 outfits total. for pictures, accidents and going home. the hospital has most of everything for baby
Baby's weight..?
How much did your LO weigh at your last ultrasound & how many weeks were you?
when did you ladies pack your baby's diaper bag?
& when did you pack your hospital bag?

Did you know that cleaning your home ONCE a week with bleach or Amonia containing cleaners is the equivalent of smoking a pack of ciggerates a day?

Did you find having a pack and play useful? We don’t travel much so I wouldn’t need it in that sense!

@fruitloop13, yes it is I wish I would have thought of it. I was very upset when they took my son the one time to the nursery I guess bc I felt like they were going to hurt him. Next baby I will remember to do what that mom did and bring a bright color hat or blanket. Best of luck with ur new baby
