Postpartum recommendations?

Question

Good morning, 
I can’t help but think how my due date is approaching closer and closer and wanted to know some postpartum remedies/products that you all recommend!! Please let me know. 
I also would like to know what I should pack in my hospital bag for when I go into labor! 
Thank you!

Answer

What to pack depends somewhat on your hospital. They will usually provide everything the baby needs there, so no need to pack diapers, etc. 
Do get the carseat in the car. You don't want to be worrying about that last minute. 
Also bring a going home outfit for the baby if you want. This time of year, a small blanket might also be nice (just be sure you buckle in the baby first and put the blanket over the baby afterwards - blankets shouldn't be under the buckles)
That's really all you need for baby stuff. Honestly. 
For yourself and hubby, comfy pillows can be amazing (just be sure they're NOT in white pillowcases so they don't get confused for hospital pillows)
If you're planning to pump, bringing the pump can be good, so that the nurses can help you with it, esp if your hospital has a lactation consultant. 
You may want to bring a small thing of lanolin because your nipples may get chapped with nursing. 
If you would feel comfortable in a shirt or something from home, you can bring that - you will need a comfy outfit to leave the hospital in (dresses are great, no pants or anything that might have an elastic around your middriff in case you have a c-section). 
I would NOT bring clothes for birth. Seriously. It's a messy process. 
Don't change into your own clothes until after the birth is over - and even then, you don't have to. 
I would bring granny panties. And comfy overnight period pads if you're particular. They do have hospital undies and pads, but I just liked having something a little more secure. I got 2 sizes up from normal. 
Be sure to ask for hemorrhoid pads with witch hazel if they don't provide them at first. So helpful! You may want to get some yourself for home, but they usually have those at the hospital. 
Also, bring hubby snacks. Unless you have a super fast labor, he will get hungry, and usually the foods available are liquid until post birth. 
This is what I'd say are the bare necessities. You could bring just going home outfits for you and baby and it'd be fine. It's really about what things you think are necessary for your comfort. If you need music, bring a small speaker. If you need your make up bag to feel alive and whole, bring that. 
Remember that you will mostly be sleeping and resting while you're in the hospital. So pack what you need to sleep and rest. 
Also, pro tip : pack a small bag for labor and a bigger bag for post labor and leave the bigger stuff in the car. Most often you'll switch rooms after delivery and the hubs can just get the other stuff when you settle into your recovery room. 
Hope this helps!
