What I’m Packing in My Hospital Bag for Mama & Baby!

post featured image

I’m manifesting that packing my hospital bag will let the baby know I’m ready and they will decide it’s their birthday! It feels so real and so close. I’m so excited to find out the gender, and packing a gender neutral hospital bag is different than last time for sure!

I asked what you recommended to take, and these are some of the most recommended items to bring with you to the hospital. Everyone says to keep it simple, but there are comforts from home that you will be so glad to have!

Most Recommended Items by YOU

Snacks
Portable phone charger (I’m bringing this one!)
Pillow (thank goodness I have these now)
Hairbrush (my fave)
Postpartum Nightgown & Robe
Stroller fan
Sound machine (portable Hatch sound machine!)
Fav shampoo & face care
Flip flops/slippers
Roku/Chromecast to plug into hospital tv
Sleep mask
Ear plugs
Nursing Bra + Gel ice packs
File folder for all the papers!
Electrolyte drink mixes
Velcro swaddle
Stanley (I might bring my 40oz?!)
Dress for going home so you’re comfy + cute
Postpartum belly binder for abdominal support

Here is what I think you ACTUALLY need in your hospital bag for mom & baby as a second time mama!

Tap Collage to Shop

Because we don’t know the gender of Baby V yet, it was recommended to me to have two totes… one for girl and one for boy! I can leave those both in the car and when we find out what baby’s gender is, then TJ can run to the car and grab the bag instead of having both taking up space in the hopsital bag. (We’ve already got enough stuff we are bringing in, right!?)
