Mom, baby... What are the things to bring for the birth room?

It’s not necessary to bring the whole maternity suitcase into the birth room. The mom-to-be should only bring the bare essentials for her comfort and to welcome her baby.

  • The bag for the birth room must be prepared in parallel with the maternity suitcase, which will be taken directly to your room after the birth.
  • This bag contains everything you need to ensure that your delivery and the baby's arrival into the world go smoothly.
  • Inside, a long-sleeved cotton bodysuit, a wool top, velvet pajamas, a pair of socks, and a soft cotton hat.
  • For the mother, a loose-fitting t-shirt or nightgown, and a pair of socks and a vest to ward off the cold in the delivery room.
  • A file containing your last ultrasounds, your medical exams and blood tests, your health insurance cards, and the declaration of anticipated birth.
  • Something to relax while waiting for the baby: books and magazines, music...
  • Change of clothes for the father, snacks and of course... the camera!
  • In case of doubt, don't hesitate to ask your questions to the midwives.

Less than 2 weeks till baby boy gets here 😮‍💨😮‍💨😮‍💨😮‍💨 and I finally got my hospital bag and diaper bag packed. Car seat going in car tomorrow and getting a birth plan together now. Oh and got his area ready in the kitchen. I feel like I’m missing something 🥴 What are y’all doing these last couple weeks mamas?

My son is finally here Oct 19 23 Time 2:11 am 6lbs 7.2oz 18 inches Was in labor for two days doctors broke my water bag after I told them I didn’t want her to . Then they had to turn around & refill my bag because when I had a contraction it was squeezing his cord . I was so pissed I told the doctor to get out & not come back in my room ever again.

Caps or head bows for baby Toiletries like toothpaste toothbrush u might want your own soak shampoo Socks slippers shoes go home in Night gown me personally I like tshirt an shorts Panties I liked those lil white stretchy shorts they give after birth tho I wore those u might want take some pads bc I bled after my c section for short while Your phone an charger Close to take cute pics in or I used my pajamas for me an baby. They’ll give u instructions on how to take care of your c section scar you’ll have steri strips for awhile Pacifier bottles unless u breastfeeding clothes for u an baby to go home in. I wore all comfy stretch pants or shorts lol an I use a lot of old navy or Walmart zip up baby clothes they have cute ones comfy for baby easy to get in an off. Few newborn diapers I used the ones hospital gave me at first an baby blankets I used hospital ones til got him home Hope this helps some. 💙🩷

This will be my first baby but so many women in my family and friends said that the brand Always has the best disposable period/postpartum underwear and it’s like $11.99 for a box of 20 or something. They said it was way more comfortable wearing those than the giant hospital pads they give you
