Re: Hospital Bag-What do you put inside?

2 nursing gowns (if nursing)
robe
slippers
flip flops (for shower)
extra pillow
extra towel
toiletries
maxi pads with wings!
boppy pillow
clothes to go home in
outfit for baby to go home in
ipod and/or book/magazines
chapstick
cell phone

that's really what I used. I didn't use a lot of the stuff I packed. The only time I used my hair dryer was the day I went home, same for make up.

Re: Hospital Bag-What do you put inside?

I would pack your bag now just to have it ready. Or at least some of it. I went into labor a month early and had everything else together except my bag. I was scrambling to get out of the house and forgot to pack just about everything, I was a mess.

yes, you should def have packed by now - you never know!

also, if you do a google search there are a bunch of websites that have lists of what to pack. I pirinted one out and checked out as I packed. It was helpful
