What did you bring to the hospital that you are glad you brought?
Also what did you wear home from the hospital? I'm trying to pack a bag- I like to be prepared early. Lol
@mi.mommy, thank you! I haven't done a hospital walk through yet. I'm a little nervous if you can't tell lol.
@mommamarli, the hospitals provide mostly everything you need and your baby! Mostly when you take a 'hospital walk' they show you the rooms and you can ask what they will provide. The only thing you might want: a nice and cute outfit for the baby to get home! I was lucky that my hospital gave me: breast pads, underwear, a bottle to clean myself, spray, witch hazel pads, overnight/max pads, cream for the baby (circumcised), wipes, diapers and a shirt for the baby, a baby comb , bottle to clean him, and a nasal thingy :) - if you are nice to them, and you can always ask for it - they will give it to you!
@mommy2benntley, wow - that would be kinda cold lol. He's due in June so I'm looking for it to be warm. I will put it down. I appreciate it.
My hospital gave you the half shirts just bring a couple just incase on top of going home if need be someone can run back and get more for you at home if need be I thought it was odd because it was January when I had my son
@kydensmommy, so cheap underwear and huge pads - check lol 😂
@mommy2benntley, ok I was confused on that because some say to bring clothes because they want them to be changed? Should I ask?
I got stayfree maxi overnights there huge but trust me you need it and I just hates the ones my hospital had they were scratchy and the mules underware didn't stay on me so I had my bf go to Walmart and buy me granny panties and pads and I just threw the underwear away lmao
They give you diapers and wipes this one I'll have to bring my own because my son can't use any other brand but pampers and I was the same way shower stuff they didn't give me any I just went to dollar store and got the travel size I brought a few outfits for baby but every time they took him he wasn't in them anymore
I used the hospital pads and underwear because sometimes you bleed through and theirs are disposable
@mommy2benntley, @mi.mommy, @kydensmommy, nipple cream and breast pads are now on my list! What kinda pads (period like wise) did y'all get? What's good and what's not? This is my first kid- can ya tell? 😂
I wore leggings and one of my boyfriends shirts home I really did not care about looking cute, my hospital did supply nipple cream, but I was super happy I brought my own pads and underwear I could trash the hospital pads SUCKED.
Sweats and a shirt snacks honestly because my husband stayed with me the whole time
Yesterday I went out with my boyfriend went to watch a movie, me and him don't live together yet. but point is yesterday when he was dropping me off his like sleep over at my house witch the mom and dad lives. I said no,
his response was why is everyone deciding or making choices for you and their going to do the same with the baby, when I know that's not true. what he thinks is that my mom tells me not to sleep over. So he left all mad. and I felt in my heart that he went on and cheated on me...

Transgender children
So I just learned that in my kids school district (my kids aren't in school yet my oldest will be starting kindergarten next September) there are twin boys who identify as girls. They are 5 years old. What's your opinions on this matter given they are 5!!! I don't believe that at that age they really understand the whole thing. So the entire school had to take a course on how to handle transgender children. For example they can't say girls go this or boys do that. What are...
@mi.mommy, thank you 😊
