Special things you're taking to the hospital

OMFG, Allison. You clearly never had a baby. All you really need is your phone, a charger, and chapstick. FFS, your list is ridiculous and you have no right to share that with pregnant people as an “expert”!

seriously you'd need a sherpa to bing all that to the hospital with you...lol

Not to mention…. “Prescription medicines you take”? Please no. Tell the hospital what medicines you take and they will bring it for you: don’t just take your random home meds and home they don’t interact with any urgent meds the hospital has to give you suddenly

Bring a bathing suit for labor? 😂 I’m dying! You’re supposed to wear a bathing suit for a water birth? How does the baby come out?????

I’m also cry-laughing thanks everyone. I gave birth 18 months ago and as I prepare to do so again, I cannot for the life of me remember anything I brought or needed.

So, I guess I’ll follow that thorough list provided, haha

I’m an L and D nurse, and this is A LOT.
