hospital bag, birth plan, what else do I need?

I finished our birth plan and printed it, we've already pre-filled out our hospital forms and sent those in, and I'm packing my hospital bag today so we have everything ready (just in case).
What else do I need? Anything?

I can't believe you are already 32 wks!! Good for you!
You will need paperwork to add the babies to your insurance, your license, your ins cards and if you have any disability forms you need to fill out bring them as well. I'd prob get your OB to fill those out tho as the dr's don't fill them out usually even though it asks for them to.
I made it all the way to 38wks!! I hope you do as well. The babies are doing great
Make a list of the things you'll want to bring with you when you go that you can't pack in advance. For example, cell phone charger, camera and camera charger, your toothbrush and paste, etc. This way, you won't be running around trying to think of what's not already in the bag, you can just check things off the list.
Also, make a list of the people you'll need to call on your way to take care of things. For example, if you have pets, put on your list the calls you need to make to get them taken care of.
Pack snacks in your bag! Depending on what time you have the babies you may have to wait awhile to order a meal and our hospital didn't let my H order from the cafeteria he had to go down on his own to get anything, so it was nice to have snacks in our room. And I would get hungry in the middle of the night from BF, so they were good for that too!
