Hospital bag... What should I pack?

Question

37+4 and have my babys bag ready already. Ive ready articles about what to pack for myself. But ive also read you either under or over pack. 
So my general question is What the hell do/should I pack?

Answer

I packed so much. I had to have 5 people help me to my car when I left. I was so worried about being bored. next time around im bringing phone chargers, laptop for music, and a change of clothes for me and baby to go home in. im leaving the kitchen sink at home this time.

Answer

Think about how high-maintenance you are. 
Also think about what your hospital provides, here everything the little one needs is provided as well as the basic toiletries (pads, soap, crappy hospital shampoo etc) is provided as well as the hospital gown obviously.
I consider myself pretty low-maintained, except that I like my makeup (call me vain), so I’ve packed: 
- A coming home outfit for me and baby (baggy black trousers for me because i probably feel rather ew anyway, and a singlet)
- some underwear & socks
- makeup + basic skincare routine stuff to not feel like a total turd in photos. Chapstick seems to be a must.
-  travel sized shampoo, soap and toothpaste + a travel sized toothbrush.
- charger for phone and earplugs
- my wallet & keys
I’ll probably lounge in the hospital gown and the sexy mesh underwear while I’m there.

Answer

Have you toured your hospital yet? If they have basic toiletries available to you then don’t pack them. Bring comfy clothes, charger, phone, iPad or something to watch Netflix on. They had plenty of blankets and pillows for me too so I didn’t need to bring that either. Same with baby stuff, they had diapers, wipes, soap, and stuff like that. I think it’s easier to pack a bag once you know what your hospital provides so you don’t have to worry about under and over packing
