I over packed my first time lol butcwas glad bc I ended up getting a cesarean.
For baby:
3 outfits
Sleeper, couple onsies, couple outfits id say. I take nb & 0-3. My first was 8.6 fit in nb though.
Sox
Blanky (receiving & heavier if cold)
Hat
Hospital normally provides diapers ( but usually only had dry wipes that you wet to wipe them so you may take your own.   (I suggest unscented)
For mommy:
Slippers
Sox
Nightgown, robe
Nursing bras 2 nighttime, 2 day time just incase ;-)
Chapstick
Music (mp3, ipod)
Dvds ( you want something to watch at some point)
Hard candies to suck on during labor
Toiletries
Very lose fitting underware (I bled so bad after my cesarean I used the hospital pads they are huge like freakishly huge) :-( you may take some of your own pads as
Well.
Going home outfit
For daddy:
Snacks
Busy stuff,  laptop, book, dvds, etc
Clothes to sleep in
Extra outfit
A massage thing to massafe your back so his hands don't get to tired :-)

I am sure ive forgotten a few things but that should be a good start. Good luck girls! :-)

I'm 34 weeks,  packed my bag like 2 weeks ago.. Haha

I asked a few of my friends who just had babies what they packed,  forgot,  and didn't need that they packed.

So I packed:
3 pairs of comfy warm sweat/yoga pants
My own gown to birth in
Same number of comfy tops
Some snacks
Some warm socks and comfy undies
A few comfy pads of my preference
Baby clothes,  socks, and a hat for him.
Also diapers
Some travel size face wash,  shampoo and conditioner,  and toothbrush
A phone charger
A comfy hoodie/jacket

I know there is more,  but that's just a start

You're likely to over pack lol I over packed with my first.  This time I just packed a couple of outfits (we do pics in hospital) and some baby lotion, socks, and a hat or two. Going to make sure everything is ready to go this week. I'm 34+1 but everybody packs different things.  Be sure to take insurance info, I.d and toiletries for yourself and dad
