    Packing hospital bag.

    So when did everyone pack bags for you and baby for the hospital. What all did you put in them, or wish you had? I am 35 weeks with baby 5 and haven`t even started yet. May at least need to get a list going lol!
    Mom of 5, DD , DS1 ,DS2 , DS3 and surprise DD 2 . Baby number 5 sure was meant to be here, she was born after I had a tubal ligation after baby 4 was born! We are so happy to have her join us, done having kids now (hopefully my body now agrees)!!

Lotion, hair tie's, trail mix or other favorite light snack, favorite blanket and pillow. your toiletries...a good book and board game...ummm snacks for hubby...you shouldn't need much for baby they provide everything except a going home outfit of course...That's all I can think of at the moment.

    So far my list for my bag includes: make-up, shampoo, conditioner, body wash, facial cleanser, moisturizer, menstrual pads, nursing pads, lanolin cream or spray, nursing bras, nursing shirts, shape wear (to suck in my post partum belly ), chapstick, lotion, deodorant, pants, undies, essential oils (to keep my mind off of contractions), camera, and my ipod. I'm still working on it so I am probably missing some things.

    In the baby's bag I will bring a few outfits for the baby because I like having him in cute clothes. I also will bring a cute blanket and his take home outfit. Baby brush, mittens, baby record book, birth announcements (I just get the ones that you fill in), baby shampoo, body wash, and lotion (I use chemical free stuff so I prefer to bring my own for that first bath).

    I probably bring a lot more than most, but I like to make myself at home as much as possible since I could be there a while.

    I didn't bring my nursing pillow with my son but I wanted it later and made my DH go get it lol. I brought way too much. My own pillow was great, and some comfy slippers for walking the halls. Make sure you bring chargers for all electronics. And your DH may want some pain meds like Tylenol just in case.
