What's In My Hospital Bag
I have had so many requests to share what’s in my hospital bag, so I went ahead and shared the checklist I used when packing below for you girls! I also included our packing list for baby as well as Chris. Most of these items are 100% optional, as I’ve heard the hospital provides practically everything you need! After chatting with many of you girls and other mamas, I decided to include items that would make me personally feel extra comfy and as if I was “at home”. I’m sure I won’t use the majority of the items we’re packing, but I’m definitely the type that prefers to over-pack vs under! I also plan to update this list after delivery with comments on what I did and did not use to make this post the most resourceful for you girls! ☺️
