One thing you WISHED you would have packed in hospital bag?

Question

One is one (or 2) things you wished you would have packed in your hospital bag? What is an absolute necessity that you needed in your bag?

Answer

Your pillow from home!!!! Seriously the best thing after the first night. My husband ran home to get it so I would be more comfy

Answer

I wish I had brought a blanket, the hospital blankets were rough and not very warm. I was in labor overnight and sleeping off and on. This time I plan on packing a cheap micro-fleece throw. Probably would never bring my own pillow though, I don't think I could use it at home after bringing to the hospital. 😷

Answer

Chap stick. There is nothing worse than the feeling of dry lips.

Answer

I wish i packed my hospital bag😂😂 i delivered early and forgot to pack my bag! 
But now i laugh at all the lists that say all the ridiculous things to pack in your bag lol my mom brought me my tooth brush toothpaste, brush, shower stuff and a change of clothes. I wish she would have brought me my pillows. Those hospital pillows suck and i need support! 😂

Answer

Extra socks and underwear! Blood and everything else leaks from you and down to your socks so pack extra! Also baby mittens and baby hat (unless u want the hospitals). Make sure all clothes for baby are washed in baby detergent first. Pillow and nightgown are great ideas too! Oh and DRY SHAMPOO!!!!

Answer

More food for hubby and me LOL.

Answer

Baby mittens (he got all scratched up) and a nursing pillow.

Answer

Flip flops for the shower and my boppy pillow.   I've given birth at the same hospital six times now and there's one recovery room that the shower just looks gross. I'm sure it's clean, the other rooms seem to be, but the finish of it is "off" colored. Won't be forgetting my flip flops this time lol.

Answer

Fuzzy socks. I brought pretty much everything else and didn't regret any of it. (Blanket, pillow, lots of undies etc) fuzzy socks would have been amazing! And I wish I got 2-3 pairs of comfy sweats (Walmart is my favorite) a size too big. My legs swelled so bad that I could barely fit in my pjs. This time I'm buying brand new sweats just for the hospital and after birth
