Thanks for this post and your suggestions. A ftm following along here at 25 weeks. :) Better to be prepared! :) I feel more in the know... and will be ready to request the supplies mentioned too! :) A happy and healthy pregnancy for all! ♡☆♡☆♡☆♡
A couple of things to add to the list. Lanolin, coins for vending machines and parking, entertainment for yourself and your SO, camera, cellphone and chargers. And on top of the bag something to cover the car seat with in case you are leaking amniotic fluid.
Also dont forget *flip flops*for the shower and a *robe*!
your welcome☺☺☺i will be getting them ice pads, pads, and diapers to take home.lol..good luck ladies..I can't wait to have my little princess..
Ice pads!!?? Awesome :) i will have to check to see if they will provide extra to take home. Lol I'm too excited for this. I've switched to granny panties since thongs are so uncomfortable to me right now. Thanks ladies! <3 I've made a list of everything mentioned.
I'm not doing adult diapers, just saying that's what someone threw out. Yes, ice pads are AMAZING! They help with the swelling and soreness. My hospital always gives me some to take home if I ask.
oh yeah and baby hats too
To add on to the list. Food, spray and mouth wash big time.
and they provide blankets for baby..but you can always bring your own..
oh yes and they give you non skid socks they aren't half bad either I'm not bringing socks I'll take thiers.. lol.. well I know my hospital does..oh and your gonna wanna bring slippers too I guess they say we give u enough and don't provide those..☺☺..I'm pretty sure all public hospital are the same in what they provide..
adult diapers.. honey the only one who will be leaving with diapers is the baby.. lol..I'll take hospital pads and granny panties pls.. ice pads?? never got em but I'll sure request them this time..
Also I'm bringing a gown my husband bought and my own toothpaste. No makeup as No one will be home when we get back except my kids and Best friend.
I HATE the hospital undies lol. I buy BIG granny panties and bring those. Oh I make sure they always give me extra ice pads and big pads. Someone on here had suggested using adult diapers? I hate bleeding though lol.
Oooh them Victoria Secrets! So comfy!
^^☺☺☺i make sure I get extra.. what about those panties they give you lol..
BabyIvy, I love the hospital pads too.. Especially the ice pack pads:)
yes that sounds about right..I hate staying in that hospital gown..you also might want to bring baby 2 pair of socks and 2 pairs onsies.. I know at my hospital they only provide the little white t shirts for baby with the hands that close and a diaper after birth I always like to put my baby on onsies and socks as well..I don't pack diapers the hospital will provide them and wipes and I always take xtra when I leave for the ride.. lol..I know you can laugh.. and I actually don't take pads I love the ones they give and I take a few home with me.
lol..
