As a second time mom (this round), I realize most of what you need for you and baby is provided in the hospital (onesie, hat, and swaddle blanket for baby and water, snacks, and food for you ...depending on where you give birth.) If yours doesn't offer all of these things that's totally ok! Because there's always your husband to go run out and get you some food and water from the cafeteria) God bless our men.
This check list is everything I personally feel is needed when staying 1-2 nights in the hospital (just in case that second night is needed). Also, because I've only be set to deliver summer babies in my life, this list is geared for spring-summer due dates. But if I was going to give birth in winter, let's be real... I'd certainly be bringing my Ugg slippers and a long sleeve shirt!
Almost every item on the check list below is linked in case you're in need of finding a good quality item for that category. Most of these things I've kept from my first pregnancy (after a lot of research on finding a good item then and now) and still love!
