Hospital bag must have checklist
Actually this is the checklist I put together based on a few research and from my experience from my previous pregnancy
For Mommy :
- Your ID and Insurance card
- Birth plan
- Continuously drink your prenatal
- Make up bag + Toiletries (your lip balm, hair ties, Moisturizer , Deodorant MUST HAVE LOL!!! ) , Comb, Bath towel and etc.,
- two sets of pajama, in my case on both of my pregnancy I was in the hospital for 4 -5 days so my husband end up going home to get me more clothes
- Nursing bra / Nursing tanks , breast pads
- Easy clothes to get in and out like a yoga pants
- A pair of slipper and socks
- Going home outfit
- Pads they usually provide at the hospital but they big bulky ones, Personally I love it so this way you don’t have to change constantly well its all depend on your flow, or you can bring your own whichever you feel comfortable ….the key is if you giving a natural birth I prefer the bulky one because this way you can also add some ice to release some soreness on your private area (I hope this is not TMI !!!!!! )
- Electronics like your Cell Phone, Phone Charger, and Camera, laptop or a table
For Baby
- A Boppy pillow it’s a must……… I get to use this lot especially when feeding the baby
- Diapers, Wipes, Diaper cream
- Baby going home outfit – Depends on the season if it’s cold you need to keep the baby nice and warm
- Swaddles
- Socks, hats, mittens to avoid them scratching their little face
- Onesie
- Pacifier
- Car seat
