Tip: i had a c section with my first. They actually asked if 2 students could be in the room to observe. That was literally the only job they had so I asked if they stayed if they could please take as many pictures as they could and handed them my phone so my husband and I could be in the moment ( I asked if they could lower the drape before they pulled baby out so we could still see our little guy enter the world :). They were actually really happy to help. I got the idea from my mom who had me by csection as well and asked the students to do the same :)

Thanks for sharing! To all the Dads out there...pack your own suitcase! The pregnant lady in your life already has a lot to do...she shouldn’t be packing your hospital bag too. Go over the list of items needed together but actual packing should be done by the Dad...he is a capable adult after all hehe. I recommend packing suitcases with wheels and a pullout handle. Then no one has to strain their backs, neck, shoulders to carry or lift heavy bags...easy transport into and out of the car. Plus, someone will need to carry baby in the car seat while mama is being wheeled into or out of the hospital. Print out your master list and make copies so everyone knows what they need to pack in their suitcase and can check it off. We only packed 2 suitcases (1 for mama & 1 for dad)...my suitcase had my necessities along with baby essentials. Make sure your home is well stocked with the things you will need when you arrive home after the hospital, items for grandparents or babysitter for your kids that need to be watched while you are at the hospital, or for anyone watching your pets and taking care of your plants. Keep all your important hospital documents in a folder with a pen so when you get there or are leaving the hospital you are not scrambling to find health insurance information, ID, etc to show hospital staff especially when you need to fill out and sign forms. Find out if your hospital will let you register for your labor and delivery ahead of time online (ours def did) which can save you & your partner time and stress. I’m going to be delivering my 2nd child via c-section at the beginning of April 2020 so good luck to all the preggers out there! You can do it!!🤰🏻😀

Bianca, I’m sure it’s obvious to everyone, but Jordon’s advice in this instance is very much US centric. I’m in Canada and the hospital supplied diapers and wipes and that was pretty much it. I had to have everything else both for me and baby. And the only thing you could take home with you were the extra diapers. So if you’re looking for advice for your hospital bag, look for local videos and see if you can ask your care provider or hospital what they provide so you’re not surprised on the big day.

One advice I'd have (from the UK) is to sort out a drawer or something with extra things in so if you have to stay in the hospital for longer than planned there is a drawer you can send your partner or a friend to at home to bring in extra clothes for you and baby. Means you don't have to over pack, nor worry about what they'll bring in or someone seeing something in your drawers you'd rather they didn't.

I just watched that whole video at 45 years old (my tubes are tied and my husband had a vasectomy)...don't know why I did but it was a great video. pinkies/pacifiers are called dummies in Australia and Europe. Just to help that side of the world out.

As a L&D nurse, as far as meals go I always tell mom to over order and let dad have some of it. The kitchen doesn’t know or care! Also, as far as jewelry goes, that is really good advice to take it all off because if you were having a C-section and especially if there is an emergency section that you weren’t planning on having you cannot have jewelry on during the operation. That’s not a good time to try to get your wedding ring off that is stuck on because you are so swollen.

OOOh thanks for the tip! And YES on the jewelry! You definitely don't want to be rushing to take it off and have it stuck.

I have our 4th about to be here and my bag is so much more minimal. It's cool to see what other moms need for their hospital bags. I never bothered with entertainment as my longest labor was only 13 hours. I've never been physically capable of getting up to shower after my babes. I also don't take ANY pictures or videos. I never want any pictures or videos of labor or recovery. I take a single picture of baby when we get to the recovery room and one in their going home outfit and that's it. I go in with makeup on and leave without any on and I'm usually covered in blood when I leave. The first thing I do at home is take a LONG shower. I only bring a single outfit for myself to go home in. I don't have visitors in the hospital either so I'm not too worried about how I look. I only need a small bag for my husband and I to both put our things into. I usually only pack: Chargers Chapstick Toothbrushes and paste Deoderant Hair tie Brush Outfit for me to go home in 2 outfits for husband Lotion Pillow and blanket for husband Snacks Contact case/solution Glasses Face wash Dry shampoo For baby I only bring a going home outfit, a sleeper in case baby has a blowout, and a carseat. I pack a spare bag to bring all of the things in the hospital home in.

I had a c section and adult diapers were the only thing I could wear . You still bleed out of your bits after a c section and underwear hurt the incision

Do they give you adult diapers, or do you have to bring your own? I keep hearing people say not to bring toiletries and stuff, because the hospital provides them. I don't want to get there and be missing things I need. O.O

FYI: If you’re going to take a matching outfit for you and the baby to go home in, you must always pack an alternate outfit of clothing for just you, in case the baby has to stay in the hospital longer than you! (Like if the baby is in the NICU for extra days, after the mom is released!!) My daughter had to stay in the hospital NICU for the first nine days after birth, but I was released after I think after day 3 or 4? When they released me, I REFUSED to put on the brand new outfit I got for myself that matched my daughter’s outfit, so I made my husband go home and bring me something else to wear out of the hospital! 😱😱 ALWAYS be prepared for the alternative!!!!

The best packing video ever. There are actually some good tips here for any hospital stay! Way back when I had my kids I never had cool things with me. Just clothes for baby and me ..not to mention labor and birth was a solitary event..no Dad's allowed. I was lucky that I had very short labors and deliveries. God bless and protect you and babies as they enter the world! ❤😘

In Ireland we have to bring everything to the hospital ourselves. Everything down to nappies (diapers) and soothers (binkys) clothes for baby and you for the time they stay in the hospital. Dads are not allowed to stay after 9.30pm at night so no sleeping at the hospital.

If you end up having a c section you're going to want comfortable panties that are cotton and dont touch your incision. My FAVORITE were the playtex maternity fold down briefs you can find them in a 3 pack on amazon. They go over the incision area and are so soft so they dont snag at the incision either. They are also big enough for a pad because you will still bleed. Also recommend a tummy wrap. Hope all goes well for you and your sweet babies❤

Jordan, I love all of this advice! I wish I had know this with first baby. My first go around. I didn’t even know I could get up and shower. So I didn’t shower for like 4 days! 😭 Luckily with my second baby I took a shower the SECOND the nurse told me I could. Also, you said a new born out fit and a preemie outfit. I had the opposite problem. My first son was a big baby. 9 pounds 5 ounces and 21.5 inches long. So when we went to leave the hospital, he was squished in his outfit. His knees where almost touching his chest. I felt so bad! Thankfully we live 8 minutes form the hospital and we got home, took some pictures and immediately changed him. But ladies expecting babies, talk to your doctors. They usually have a guess on how big the baby/babies will be. So go off of that to choose what sizes you should bring. 😊😊 Best of luck everyone. Hopefully one day I can convince my husband to have another baby. But he thinks #15 is too many. Lol jk jk I just have 2! 😆🤣

My baby was in the NICU for 12 days and I was induced at 38 weeks. I didn't have a bag packed all the way or with me when I had to go in so my husband drove home and got stuff the best he could. I didn't get any cute outfits or cute pictures on the first day because of his health issues due to surprise Down syndrome. I hope I will be able to have another and improve on the experience.

Agree with all of this! First time I felt dead and couldn't get out of bed. Didn't want to take pictures or change but regret not getting even one. Second time, I didn't even want to stay in the hospital I felt so good. Took a shower, changed and did my makeup and felt like taking a million pictures. Every birth is different!

None of my babies could actually fit into the newborn outfits from the very beginning. Glad I took some 0-3 mon clothes. And I also took warm baby blankets, burp cloths, and pacifier. I also took an electric kettle to my last delivery with drinking water, tea bags, and my thermos cup, as well as styrofoam cups (to make tea for my visitors). I love drinking hot tea and it also helps with milk production!

Most hospitals as long as you don't have a C-section actually let you pick out what you wear when you labor they just give you certain restrictions on what it has to be like. I bought my labor gown on Amazon they have ones that not only button down the back but unbutton in the front so you can breastfeed immediately. I actually got lucky in mind didn't get messy at all for some reason I keep it to sleep in at night it has pockets too... actually those came in handy for carrying my phone around while I was in labor!!! If you look for this type make sure it buttons down the back and unbuttons in the front

For clothes in my hospital bag for my first, I packed a premie and newborn going home outfit, and she was 9lbs and didn’t lose weight in the hospital, so someone had to bring us a bigger outfit! With my second, we had a growth ultrasound and knew she was around 9lbs, so we brought 0-3 month clothes and she came out at 10lbs 10oz! So now I always recommend to people bringing just one 0-3 month sleeper, just in case🤍

I'm surprised the hospital is allowing you to bring your own blankets and pillows. I work in labor and delivery and patients are not allowed to bring their own blankets and pillows because of the chance of bed bugs. Everything else you said was right on point. I hope you have an uneventful labor and delivery of your twins. Can't wait to see the babies. God bless you and your family!

I like to also pack nursing pads. I have a little hack where I stick a nursing pad on the inside of a onsie covering the babies umbilical cord so the onsie doesn’t get blood and gunk on it. I also make sure to download MamaBaby app to keep track of how long I’ve nursed on each side and put their weight in, etc. My baby is almost 4 months and I still find it helpful, especially at night. I think it will be really helpful for twins : ) Can’t wait to see your babies!! 👶🏼👣💙👶🏼👣❤️
