What do I pack in my hospital bag?

Question

I’ve started packing my hospital bag for labor/delivery but I feel like I’m over packing. Like for example, I packed diapers, wipes, baby soap, and baby lotion but does the hospital provide that already or do they charge you for it? I just need to know what I ABSOLUTELY NEED to bring. Thanks! ❤️

Answer

They have all the diapers, soaps, wipes. All you need is outfits, I liked my swaddles more but that’s preference, and enough diapers and wipes to get you home from the hospital. I just took the ones from my room. But you don’t really need anything for the baby. Pack for yourself lol.

Answer

Hospitals typically provide all the baby stuff. Not sure where you are but here in Canada they don’t charge for the extras. Be more concerned about packing comfy clothes and comfort items for yourself.

Answer

As long as you have alllll the pads for yourself and some nappies, wipes and clothes for baby you will be fine. Just take some shower bits and comfy clothes for you.

Answer

You don’t need that. Bring your own toiletries and outfits to come home in for you both. You could bring clothes for you to wear there or baby too but that’s optional.

Answer

I recommend packing a sleeping mask, ear plugs, tums and lip balm.
