They give you pads at the hospital that's just a waste of space in your bag bring clothes for you extra socks maybe slippers hospital floors are cold. Bring a going home outfit for the baby. Also tooth brush tooth paste hair brush shampoo conditioner. Phone Phone charger and just make sure you have something to keep u occupied. Oh and if u take a shower bring flip flops I think the showers at the hospital are nasty.

I was 33 weeks and ended up getting flown to a bigger city hospital and induced and didn't have any bags ready!  Pack them any times ladies once you hit the 3rd trimester it's better to have them ready than not. And also breast pads are good to have and clean socks and tons of undies (I'd advise going and buying cheap full cotton ones so you don't ruin yours)

Adding to the previous comment. Make sure you bring pads!! I'm 36 weeks and haven't packed for myself yet, just baby. It's good to start now. I'm always too tired to pack. My mom has to help get everything together.
