| A very good list this is my third child and I still forgot to pack some things. I cant wait for my baby to come its still exciting the third time around. |

| Don't forget your Boppy or nursing pillow if you are nursing. I forgot that for my first baby and when my husband ran home to shower the next day I had him grab it, I was much more comfortable with it. I definitely won't be forgetting it this time around!! I guess I'd better get my bags packed, only 4 weeks to go. It's funny how nothing seems as urgent with your second child (probably because you are too busy chasing the first one around). |

| Great starter list, seems I cant get enough of preplanning right now. I agree on bringing your own pillows, just make sure its not in a white pillow case. You might want to grab tooth paste and toothbrush for you and one for your coach/hubby/ it's one of those make you crazy things. We are going for planned c-section this time I think I can be more aware and prepared this time...Good luck and God Bless you ladies. |

| if bottle feeding bring your own formula. my little one hated the carnation brand @hospital, i had the best results w/similac and target brand lactofree |

| Well in response to some of the people well atleast for my first child. The hospital provided my daughters first bag of diapers, and pacifer. And to be frank the hospitals first pacifer is the best.. lol |

| For baby...PACIF The 1 friend I had that didn't bring a pacifier regretted it...(I say bring more than one because babies like to spit them out onto the floor lol). Everyone else who had them had quiet, calm babies. :) |

| I like the idea of writing in the baby book at the hospital. There are times when you can't sleep and the baby is passed out and it would be a great way to capture the moments as you remember them. I write in a journal that I have and keep for my kids so, they will have something to reflect on when I am gone and they need to remember how much I loved them each as individuals. Yes, I agree with your own pillows! It's hard to sleep on a hospital pillow. The other thing to bring is extra batteries for your camera~ nothing worse than trying to get your babies first moments and the batteries die! Sweats are a great thing to take to wear home. They don't push on your stomach and fit great no matter what your body looks like after! |
| josie on 9/7/2009 4:33:10 AM |
| A camera too!! |
| Ashley on 8/16/2009 9:02:26 AM |
| Something not listed here that both my husband and I desperatly needed with the birth of our daughter, YOUR OWN PILLOWS!. The ones at the hospital are so small and you should do whatever it takes to find some measure of comfort during and after labor |
Please
