In a fit of nesting...

...I decided to repack everything for the hospital since it's been in discussion the last few days it seems.

I hauled the baby's bag and the bag DH and I are using upstairs, unpacked everything, put all those things away, and thought I would start from scratch.

Needless to say before I repacked I ended up thirsty, out-of-breath, having to pee, already in tears, overheated and swollen.

Now I'm not packed for the hospital. [sigh]

Haha...you're over-thinking it. You really do not need that much. Plus, there is a gift shop or your H can run home or someone can bring you something.  It won't be the end of the world if you don't pack just right.

no need to stress!!  you really don't need that much.....

nursing bras, underwear/clothes to come home in, clothes if you plan to not wear the hospital gown, take home outfit for LO, camera, phone (and charger), chap stik, snacks, toiletries/make up and clothes for DH if he plans to stay with you.  and nursing pillow if you plan to BF.

honestly, they will supply you with everything you need or you can have someone bring you something.

relax its not so bad. Just pack a few items that you can spare. Worst comes to worst send you DH to bring clothes for you to wear.Or if you don't trust him a girlfriend. Remember you are going to the hospital not on a cruise.

Oh no doubt....I had no trouble packing us up the first time. I just have no idea why I decided to take it all out and put it away!  It seems like anymore I have a 10 minute window of physical tolerance and mental alertness to complete anything.
