36 weeks, hospital bag..

[jessielou94]

So im 36 weeks, and i really need to pack my bag.. the only thing i have so far packed is my 2 day clothes, sports bra, and underwear. I only packed pajamas and sweatpants cause i know i'm gonna wanna be comfortable. I don't care what i go home in. Just more worried about being comfortable. What else should i pack? I know the diaper bag should be ready.. got a few onsies. My baby shower is sunday so ill have that more packed then. I know the hospital gives you diapers while you're there... just dont know what all i should pack. And they say i should pack stuff to do, well all i need is my phone, charger, camera and charger. Cause the hospital has wifi, and a dvd player. So i plan on sending my boyfriend to get some redbox movies for entertainment.

Honestly its kind of hard to answer because every hospital provides different things. I packed change of comfy clothes too but spent the whole time in the Johnny (hospital gowns) they give you. I brought a book to keep me occupied and never even touched it because you're either eating, feeding baby, people visiting, or sleeping whenever you can. I packed her a couple outfits too and never put her in a single one until we went home because my hospital provided little t-shirts and a halo sleep sack with wings. I way over packed, which stunk when it came to coming home because we had gifts and extra diapers, pads, and blankets from the hospital to bring home. Your best bet is to ask your Dr or call the hospital and ask to figure out exactly what they offer.


Sidenote, if you're planning to breastfeed bring breastpads and some lanolin with you! Your nipples will be SO sore for a while and I didn't think to bring any so I was out of luck ):
