Snack for hosoital

Tabitha

What kind of snacks should I bring for after delivery? I’m planning on nursing but it didn’t work out with my first two, so we’ll see.. I figure I’ll bring some granola bars and Powerade. What else?

Forget the snacks I’m sending my husband/mom to get me a giant burger and curly fries from Hardee’s once this kid is out 😂.

I craved fruit, veggies and dip, a hamburger and fries 🤣 this time I will be taking fruit and veggies with me and then probably ordering pasta from somewhere. Hospital food is gross.

I would only limit these things if your baby is not tolerating your milk. Plenty of kids do fine with these and it would be a shame to cut them all out unnecessarily, especially with so many nutricious fruits and veggies on the list

These are all foods to avoid?

I’ve read that pineapple juice is great for breastfeeding moms, so maybe a can of that. I definitely craved granola bars and “real food” after giving birth the first time

Granola bars, apple sauce, honey sticks, lemonade, and some protein bars 😊

100% pineapple juice helps with sore breasts and just good for you! Gatorade’s, ice pops, snack bars. They feed you good at the hospital though most of the snacks I packed my husband ended up eating 😂

I don’t think my hospital had a cafeteria. I’m delivering on base. Someone said they do feed you if you are a patient but who knows how much lol.
