I’ll start soon. I’m 32 weeks with GD and measuring ahead. So I’m expecting the possibility of going early. This will be my 3rd c-section. 
I bring toiletries, sandals to shower in, gripper socks, shorts, nursing tanks, a robe or two (pink blush!!), phone charger. Probably my pillow and blanket and a nice big cup for all my water I’ll drink (I love my yeti). Outfit for baby to come hone in. Car seat.

Answer

The other lists given are pretty good but I suggest getting high rise underwear for after birth if you don’t have any already! They make you feel more comfortable and if (god forbid) you have an emergency c-section, you wont want your underwear resting on or too close to the scar. Just get some cheap ones cause after labor you ruin all your underwear ! Lol

Answer

I need to get on that 😆  baby outfits; swaddle, some comfy gowns if you don’t want to wear the hospital gown.  Also a going hone outfit for you.   I personally lived in loose dress PJs and a robe; also light makeup for any pictures and toiletries.  I did take my nursing pillow.  The hospitals I’ll give you diapers etc; and Lenny of mesh parties for you so don’t worry about that.

Answer

I’m 30 weeks today and have things pulled out for baby and a few things pulled out for myself and I have toiletries getting put together and I have the bag pulled out for everything to go in but otherwise I’m not in a rush yet. Probably after Easter I’ll get things put together but I’ve found my husband hates when I pack his clothes too early because he hates to not have some of his favorite clothes with him at home for a month😂😂 I always pack his favorite to keep him comfortable and happy. My stuff normally gets packed along with babies things way before my husbands things otherwise he just pulls them back out and I’m constantly repacking stuff!
