WHAT’S IN MY HOSPITAL BAG?!

Since this was highly requested via my instagram, I figured I would share what all I put in our hospital bag as a blog post! I hope this helps any momma’s out there who are getting ready for the big day!!

Today I am exactly 3 days away from my due date and getting more anxious by the minute! I’m just ready for her to make her appearance now!

Before I get into it, let me preface by saying that everyone is different. Some people prefer to bring practically nothing but a few changes of clothes, and others probably pack WAY TOO MUCH (I’m definitely the second person). I’d rather have too much then not enough though AND this is my first baby, so bare with me!

Everything I brought is a compilation of me asking those around me and getting advice! Lots of great ideas that I would have never thought about. I’m definitely glad I asked people I know rather than relying of Pinterest check lists lol.

I decided

FOR BABY GIRL:

  • 3 NB onesie’s and one 0-3 mos onesie (she could be huge I just don’t know lol)

  • Coming home outfit

  • Baby blanket

  • 2 different kinds of Pacifiers

  • NB pajama’s

  • 2 Swaddles w/ matching hats

  • Extra headbands

  • Empty gallon size ziplock bag for all of our hospital bracelets /baby hat (THANKS CORI for this amazing idea!!)

  • Baby Shusher (portable sound machine)

  • Nursing Boppy pillow

baby shusher, pacifer’s, pacifier wipes

These swaddles and matching hats are from Copper Pearl and I LOVE them. They are sooo soft!
