did you bring clothes for LO to the hospital?

I know we brought DD home in a special outfit, but I can't remember if we brought anything else for the rest of her stay.  I don't think so, but I'm in full packing mode and I am thinking about throwing in some onesies - though they will have that at the hospital for sure.

Seems like more trouble than it's worth to bring extra clothes...

    Nope.  He wore hospital clothes till we left and so will Butterbean.  I'm all about minimizing what we take with us, so take that FWIW.

    I brought stuff, but didn't use any of it. It was my first baby and she screamed every time we changed her clothes. If I could do it again, I'd take diaper shirts or easy onesies and not be afraid to change her clothes, though. The hospital stuff is pretty ugly.

    UNLESS you are delivering at the new hospital in RR off 620. They had fancy swaddles for boys and girls, not that typical blue and red stuff.

    OH! Or you could take cute swaddle blankets since that's all you see the whole time anyways.

    I did with Vivi, since it was V-day and I wanted her to have something cute.  It was kind of silly.  She peed on the cute Valentine's Day pajamas in about 10 minutes and then we had peed on clothes to haul home.  

    If there's a next time, I'll just bring something to wear home.

    No, just a coming home outfit.

    Molly wore the hospital wrap tees and was swaddled most of the time (when we weren't snuggling or nursing).  I only brought an outfit for the ride home.

    My list from the BC says to bring 3 shirts and 2 sleepers.

    we only brought his coming-home outfit. a cute swaddle blanket would be nice for all the pictures since the baby's swaddled most of the time anyway. oh, and maybe a cute hat?

    We didn't bring clothes for her to wear at the hospital but I did bring two outfit options for going home and then ended up putting DD in one of them while we were there.... which I am so gladwe did.  Next time we will take clothes for LO to wear at the hospital.
