How many diapers do I take to hospital?

Question

My hospital provides pretty much nothing for me and baby. So I need to bring diapers and wipes, etc. should 10 diapers be enough?

Answer

I would take probably around 20-30. As a newborn my daughter went through 10-12 a day. And then you need extras for when they poop or pee as your trying to change the diaper, which will definitely happen at least once lol

Answer

I'd bring one pack/sleeve of them so like 25-30 diapers.

Answer

My daughter went through 7-10 diapers a day as a newborn. But I find it super odd that your hospital doesn't provide you with anything. We needed next to nothing during our hospital stay.

Answer

How many days will you be there? What did they stay is a typical stay? C section is a longer stay usually so don’t rule that out. I’d go more. It can’t hurt.

Answer

I packed 16, about 2-3 days worth I packed for because if we don’t have complications we get released 6hrs after birth, I packed 3 days worth of everything for my LB

Answer

My hospital provides diapers while you are there and send you home with any of the unused pack

Answer

No 10 will not be enough. I would take a whole pack or keep extra in your car.

Answer

I would take two of the 28 packs.   We used an entire pack and then some for our little one.

Answer

If you’re planning on breastfeeding expect one wet diaper per day of life. So if you’re staying for 2 days, expect 3 wet diapers total. That doesn’t include poopy diapers though. I’d think 10-15 would be plenty.
