Mrs.M317 · September 2010

At my appointment last week I was 1 cm dilated so now my husband is freaking out about the hospital bag. Tell me what you are planning to put in yours...

I have no idea what I'm going to take with me. I'm not really a nightgown person, but none of the lists I've seen have recommeneded taking pants??

Well, I'm not going through labor, so mine is packed like I'm going away for the weekend..except I have yoga pants instead of jeans and such.

I'm probably no help, but hiiiiiiiiiii!

My problem is that I'm in get ready fit baby mode and not get ready for labor mode. I feel like I'm packing for vacation, too. I like the idea of a labor bag and a post partum bag though...

Most of this stuff, plus all my own toiletries including some Neutrogena facial cloths... I figure if I can't get a shower right away these will help me feel a little cleaner.

I just took the google adventure and they actually SELL labor bags. I think I can get most everything together, lol. Now I'm wondering if they'll let me wear my own pj's after the baby is born...

On top of the toiletries, I want to bring a couple things to help through labour. We'll be bringing our own "labour" aka sports ball for sitting, leaning, and/or rocking on. I'll also pack a couple tennis balls. One for massage, the other to throw at DH when he isn't massaging me properly.

Here's crossing my fingers for a home birth so that we don't have to haul all this stuff up to L&D.

Myheart1297 · September 2010

Night gowns, t-shirts & sweats, chapstick, shampoo, conditioner, body wash, brush, toothbrush, toothpaste, underwear, sports bras, q-tips, clothes for baby (for boy & girl since we don't know), camera, video camera, chargers, batteries, extra money for the TV and whatever else I might need, slippers.

I'm sure there is more but I don't have my list in front of me right now.

I'm due Friday and I still don't have a bag packed. : ( I am just one of those people that will be running around the house flailing throwing stuff into a bag, lol. I kind of promised H I'd pack one this weekend but I didn't.
