Snacks for all, pack snacks for you and your husband. You only get so much food and it isn’t the best, plus your husband doesn’t get any food so pack cookies, crackers, granola bars and trail mix.
Maturity clothes for ride home.
Underwear and socks for ride home, and extra socks for hospital
Hairbrush, toothbrush, toothpaste, shampoo and conditioner, hair dryer, and make up.
Breast feeding pillow
Baby wipes (some hospitals do not supply them)
Clothes for baby to wear home and an outfit for pictures they take at hospital. Don’t plan on changing is clothes all the time, the nurses always change him back into their outfit.
Lotion and chapstick
Labor might be long so bring things to do or read. Crosswords, magazines etc.
Camera, video camera and extra batteries or chargers
Cell phones and chargers you will be calling everyone you know.
Blanket for baby to go home with
Baby car seat with head support in it. If the hospital will let you put the baby in the car seat before you get outside, it is so much easier, then doing it in the parking lot.
If you like to write bring a journal and pen to write about your experience.
