if you plan on staying more than a day
there (I think they recommend 2-3) bring
shampoo/conditioner. They give you a
sample size of both, but if you have a lot
of hair (like me and my sister) you're
gonna want more than that. (my sister's
hair is to the small of her back and
THICK, so the shampoo didn't go far at
all)

Onesies? These were all the rage when my
DD was born 10 years ago.

Hmm I took a bunch of stuff but I don't
really remember...
Dude if you can, get a cheap foam mattress
insert, especially if you're getting an
epidural. Hospital beds are really
uncomfortable, and they have a metal
support beam that hits rights where the
epi needle went in. It was HELL.

Take whatever you would take if you were
going somewhere overnight.
Be careful using the items from the
hospital - they will charge your insurance
for them. If you are unsure if your
insurance will pay for it, call them first
- those diapers they 'give' at the
hospital, will show up on the bill - or
that shampoo, etc. None of it is 'free'.
If you are on medicaid, they will be
covered, but on private insurance it can
be an extra expense.

kinda like those hotels that charge $20
for a can of pop you opened and only drank
half of it before they came in and cleaned
up and threw it out?!? Man are they
sneaky!

Oh Ingi I am glad you said that because I
have my baby bag packed and I have about 4
huggies in there for junior but I didn't
know that the hospital would charge you
for using their diapers. That is so crazy
espcially if they don't tell you first. I
will just use what I have in my bag to
avoid any suprising charges.
