what to pack in hospital bag ? HELPPPP ! 😞😬

Question

im really just lost & confused as to what to pack for my hospital bag when I go into labor . any suggestions ? any been there done that moms to help me out ?!

Answer

Packed two comfortable pajamas sets, bras, bath wash cause I have eczema, toothpaste toothbrush, hair brush and ponytails, deodorant and lotion. For baby I packed 3 different color onesies matching bibs and socks. I'm not a big fan of the hospital ones they give u. Plus I'm having another boy they tend to pee and can't skirt on u or them and not know it. I bringing my own baby blanket and hand gloves so he doesn't scratch his face. Bought the outfit I want his first picture to be in. The rest for baby like diapers, milk depending if u breastfeeding or not, binkis, Johnsons lotion and bath wash they will give u. I'm thinking of bring my own wipes, cloth ones suck lol and don't be afraid to ask for extra. I put the stuff in my son's bag and the nurse gave me extra for the road last time hopefully the same will happen . Good luck

Answer

I packed comfy pajamas for myself (gowns, not pants), phone charger, nursing bras & nursing pads, lanisoh cream, granny panties, super absorbent pads, travel size body wash, shampoo and conditioner, hair ties & brush, clothes to wear home, flip-flops and soft non-slip socks. I think I might get a robe or cardigan as well. Also makeup JUST IN CASE lol for baby, I totally overpacked. I packed 3 newborn and 3 0-3 months outfits... One of each size to wear home and onesies in each size. Also a couple sleep & plays. I packed him socks & mittens, a swaddle blanket & a fleece blanket for the drive home. I didn't bring diapers or wipes because they provide them at our hospital apparently. I packed my husband a couple changes of clothes and some gym shorts for nights. We also packed our camera, obviously & hard drive so we can watch movies if we get bored while labor is being induced.

Overall I think we packed probably way too much but I like to know I'm prepared lol this is my first baby so I don't know exactly what we will or won't use. I used a packing list I found on Pinterest :)

My best friend had two babies her number one suggestion to me is to bring wipes bc the ones at the hospital are clothish and u have to wet them yourself to use them. She also told me to take everything they give you and ask for more hahaha good luck with the rest of your pregnancy I'm only 23 weeks so i have a little bit to go still
