Don't forget diaper bag for baby...some clothes, and blankets! And your own bag of clothes and toiletries.  Good luck!

Loose fitting jammies, pads (Im still using thick ones, and I'm 6 days PP, Vaginal birth) if your breast feeding get some soothies and some nipple ointment... also, rest in the hospital as hard as it is, I regret not. I slept about 9 hours during my 3 day stay....it was really hard when coming home...exhsusted

Yea, she's talking about super thin andabsorbent long overnight maxi pads with wings!!!  Not just breast pads, which u will need as well.  Also get plenty of rest before hand so ur not in a sleep debt..

Make sure you stock up on pads,that's a necessity. Also Tylenol for any soreness from delivering. While your at the hospital they will provide pads etc but get them ahead of time for at home. I also have prepped a few meals I put in the freezer because you won't feel like cooking, that way you can just heat them up.
