Hospital Essentials

I thought I would make a list of everything I actually used while at the hospital to have a baby.

• Boppy - was nice for breastfeeding and for guests to hold Milo
• Adult Diapers - WAY better and you feel more secure than those pads and panties they give you.
• Camera/Charger
• Phone/Charger - Don't forget to unload your photos on your phone before you go! I didn't so I didn't have space to take a million photos like I wanted to!
• Chapstick - It's so dry at the hospital.
• Insurance Cards/Drivers License/Wallet with cash for food for Husband
• Toiletries - to make you feel like a human again
• Going home outfit for you/baby
• Baby Carseat - have it installed before you go, we didn't and Kent had to figure it out before we could leave.
• Robe/Slippers - I used these when visitors came and to walk around the place.
• Nursing bra
• Extension Cord - so I could use my phone and charge it at the same time.
• Baby Book - to have everyone sign the book and for you to record memories so they are fresh in your mind!
• Snacks for the Husband

I didn't actually mind the hospital pillows, but Kent brought his own. And in reality you live in the same town where the hospital is, so I just sent Kent home to get something if I needed it. :)

Things I didn't really use:

• Playing Cards
• Movies

Good Luck Having those babies!
