Hospital Bag..
When did everyone pack their hospital bag? Dr. Told me anything,could happen at this point so I just start packing to be ready. When did you pack your bag and what things did you make sure you had?
Never packed mine last time until maybe a day or two before , but everyone is talking about it so I feel like I might do it sooner this time! Ill be 32 weeks Sunday and scheduled c-section is October 2nd as of now , we might have to do it sooner tho but I'm trying to avoid that at all costs!
I'm packing mine at 36-37 weeks since my baby shower is at 36 weeks and I'll have nothing until then. ?
For baby:
0-3 month clothes
Newborn clothes
Diapers (maybe 5ish since my hospital provides them but just in case) and wipes
Receiving blankets
Pacifier just in case
Hats for baby
Bottles
My pump & parts
Car seat
For me:
Comfortable clothes
Pumping bra
Toiletries
Tooth brush & toothpaste
Pads and undies (I'll probably use the ones they provide though while I'm there)
Phone & charger
Wallet
Chapstick
Mascara & concealer
Flip flops for the shower/bathroom
Hairbrush
Idk what else yet or if I'm forgetting anything but those are the important things to me so far.
Then for hubby, he'll bring a change of clothes and his toothbrush just in case but the night I'm in he hospital after baby is here I think he's staying home with our daughter.
This will be my third and I usually pack my bag around 35 weeks. With my first I way over packed then my second still over packed. This time going far more simple!
- 2 outfits for me (Sweat pants and nursing tank, nursing bra, t-shirt and light zip up sweatshirt)
- Toiletries (shampoo & conditioner for sure)
- Slippers (with grips on the bottom like moccasins)
- Phone chargers and or camera charger
- 2 outfits for baby coming home (both newborn but one a little bigger and one smaller)
- Baby hat and or headband(s)
- Favorite swaddle blanket
- Socks for baby
I bring my stuff in a bag with husbands which he brings 2 t shirts, underwear and basketball shorts. (Usually is wearing sweats)
Then I put baby stuff into the diaper bag which will have a couple diapers and wipes as well. I also then toss my wallet into the diaper bag and leave my purse at home when it's go time :)
I have learned not to bring along the nursing pillow, my favorite pillow and all that stuff. Our hospital has all the and mine was more to lug out when we went home. It also just sat in the corner the whole time.
