Hi to all mom's to be who are waiting to see their cute little bundle of joy very soon.
This is my first post and am writing this to share my experience about how i packed my hospital bag prior to my delivery, after doing so much of research on what all is required for a new mother and just born baby till they step out from hospital. So if you are in or over 35th week of your pregnancy this is really going to help you to pack your stuff to hospital.
So below is the List of things which i kept ready for my D'Day.
1) Documents :
I suggest during your routine checkup talk to the insurance department in your hospital about the documents required if you have any insurance because you really don't want any last moment mess.
2) Baby's Bag : Here we come to the most exciting part of our packing list.
i. Baby Dipers and Baby Wipes :
Most hospitals provide baby diapers but still if you want you can pack a few of it.
ii. Baby Clothes :
Make sure all the clothes you use for your baby are washed well and cotton clothes are the best.
iii. Baby Socks & Hand Gloves to keep baby warm
iv. Baby Swaddling cloth :
For my little girl we used pure soft MulMul cotton cloth to swaddle her, but you can also get ready baby swaddles in all the baby shops
v. Baby Blanket
vi. Baby Nail cutter :
You might need it if your baby has nails and you don't want your baby to scratch himself or herself (In my case my little girl had so much nails that i had to cut her nails on the second day)
vii. Diaper rash cream, Baby hair brush, Baby lotion.
viii. Baby Plastic Sheet
ix. Go home clothes for your baby
3) Mom's Bag :
i. Clothes :
Pack a pair of feeding gowns or some Tees in which you will be comfortable in nursing your baby. You might need to wear Hospital gown for the labor room. Post labor you will loose few kilos of weight so select your outfit accordingly.
ii. Few Heavy duty Sanitary Pads
iii. Cardigans or Jacket
iv. Nursing Bras & Pads
v. Pair of Socks
vi. Anti skid Slippers
vii. Towels and Toiletries
viii. Your skin care Essentials & Hair accessories
ix. Go Home Clothes
At Last your Mobile Charger,power bank, Camera and pills if you are on any. So final dear to be mommies you are all set to have a wonderful experience of being a Woman.
