3rd Trimester

No-no topic question...

Yes, I'm asking about a hospital bag.  I just packed it, and don't think I need anything else, but wanted to see what everyone else is bringing.  I'm getting ready very early, last time I had DS at 35 weeks, so one can never prepare too soon.

My list is; camera and batteries, mouthwash, robe and slippers, toothpaste & toothbrush, soap and lotion and a bring baby home outfit.

Whats in your bag?

Re: No-no topic question...

  • Clothes for yourself, makeup, shampoo, cell phone and charger, massage tool for during labor, 2 outfits for LO. (Thankfully we had a spare, she puked on her first one before we got her in the car.)

  • Even though this was my second time, I overpacked our bag again Embarrassed. Honestly, the things that are on your list {plus a few side snap t-shirts for my daughter, my camcorder & lap top} are the only things I used while I was there. I'm glad I took the extra shirts b/c the ones in the hospital were too big for her & the hospital staff stated that was the only size they had. 

        GL on the birth of your new little miracle!! 

  • I haven't been able to bring myself to pack the bag yet, but in addition to the items on your list I also want to bring my own pillows, make sure we have change/cash for vending machines, some kind of massage tool (like a tennis ball even would be ok), hard candies/mints, clothes for DH, chapstick, nursing bra/top/nightgown, nursing pillow.

  • Nursing bras/ pads? An outfit for you to wear home?

    Can't think of much else- I used everything from the hospital and lived in my hospital gown while I was there. Had a c/s so I couldn't move around much anyways!

  • presents for O from baby

    baby products, as I don't use Johnson and Johnson

    laptop and cord

    pillow and boppy

    extra bag to take all that extra stuff home

  • Ditto to what you said except I'll be packing 2 sports bra's.. (a life saver if you are more the "liberal" type, with DS the room was so freaking hot!) 2 yoga pants, 2 tanks, and sweatshirt,  nursing pads even though I won't be nursing, just for the leaking, cell and charger along with my computer and make up. DH won't be staying with me because we have DS so I won't have to worry about extra packing there!
  • I packed a nursing bra, undies, going home outfit for LO, toothbrush, shower gel, shower puffy, belly binder, gum cigars for hospital visitors. I plan to pack my makeup too but that's last minute & camera, charger, cell and charger. I'm planning on just staying in the hospital nightgown while I'm there & they told me they supply the pads, nipple cream, nursing pads.
