My top 5 must have items for your hospital bag!
-
1. Comfy Slippers! - As "nice" as the grippy socks you get from the hospital are, I guarantee you will want to be comfortable in your own slippers from home! I also recommend bringing socks 🧦 you love as well as compression socks in case you need them!
-
2. A robe or nursing gown! - Whatever method you are delivering your baby by, having your own robe/gown that is a texture that you like is key! I did not do this with my first and I wish I had!
-
3. A noise machine - I just used an app on my phone, but it was a game changer. Hospital rooms are soo loud with all of the different machines which can make it hard to fall asleep. I put white noise on my phone and put it right by my head to fall asleep otherwise the sound of the clock ticking kept me awake. You could also use an audio book too (I often listen to Pride and Prejudice to fall asleep 😊).
-
4. Chapstick/Aquaphor for your lips - Hospitals are often very dry and the last thing you want is to have cracked lips while you are trying to take care of your newborn.
-
5. Dry Shampoo - Let's be real dry shampoo is a must because you may not feel up to washing your hair in the shower and that's totally okay! You just delivered a sweet little baby!!
