What to pack for yourself?

Question

I have everything ready to go for my LO, and I even packed a bag for my husband as well... but I completely forgot about myself. I'm having vaginal delivery, and just wanted to know what I should bring with me for myself to help after birth.

Answer

I would pack as if you’re going on a weekend trip just with super comfortable and loose fitting clothes that has easy access to boobies if breastfeeding is a part of your goals.

Answer

I know hospitals will give you the mesh underwear and pads but I’ve watch lots of YT videos where moms recommend always absorbing underwear. Apparently it’s more comfortable and easier to put on/take off. I also, am packing pads for my boobs since I plan to ebf. Otherwise, my bag is pretty basic (clothes, toiletries, basic comforts that I have when I stay away from home.)

Answer

these are the ones that I was thinking about getting. i've seen good reviews on them.

Answer

Same as everyone else, but add in some slip on shoes. You aren’t going to want to bend over to tie shoes or squeeze into them. Loose clothing, toiletries, and pillow and blanket if you want your own. And chargers! I pre charged my camera and packed that too.

Answer

Loose jammies, hair brush and ties, pads, big undies (I don’t like the mesh), pillow, blanket

Answer

I packed 2 pairs of loose pajama pants, 2 nursing tanks, 2 nursing nighties, sweats and loose tshirt for going home, comfy socks, comfy undies, a robe, and a sweater. For toiletries, just shampoo/conditioner, body wash, deodarant, toothbrush, toothpaste, floss, mouthwash; all toiletries are just the travel size. Think that's about it.
