Hospital Bags
With Little Miss being our second baby, I have a little better of an idea of what to pack to head to the hospital. I sort of guessed the first time around with Greyson & ended up taking a bunch of stuff that I didn't touch. Minimization is my key this time around.
And of course this time, we have Greyson to think about as well. We will have someone in place [hopefully before I go into labor] to watch him or get him to/from school when we're in the hospital. But I hadn't thought much about how it will work if I go into labor in the middle of the night, like I did with him. My mom gave me a great idea - have a little bag packed for him as well!
For Baby:
- 2 outfits - one NB size & one 0-3 months
- cute headband
- hat
- crib moccasins
- swaddle blanket
- car seat
- Boppy pillow
For Mommy & Daddy:
- robe
- socks
- slip on slippers
- maternity leggings
- nursing tanks - I have 2 packed
- lanolin
- flip flops
- toiletries - dry shampoo, conditioner, body wash, toothbrush, toothpaste, deodorant, lotion
- Chapstick
- iPad & charger
- phones & chargers
- snacks
For Greyson:
- clothes
- pajamas
- comfort items - he has 2 favorite blankets & always has at least one for bed
- tooth brush & tooth paste
- a few favorite toys
Most is all packed. Of course, those things we use everyday haven't been packed & will just have to be thrown in when we are heading out for the hospital.
Just over three weeks until my due date & we're anxiously & impatiently waiting! Ready when you are little miss!
Any second (or more) time moms have any other hospital bag or general advice? I would love to hear it! I am more prepared for the actual labor this time around but having Greyson & not just us whose lives are changing has me all sorts of nervous!
