Other than that I had wipes, lotion, a few onesies, playsuits (terry sleepers) socks and his outfit to come home and a few cloth diapers for burp rags if needed (and they were) :) Congratulations and good luck!

You'll be the same size as you were when you were 6 months pregnant, so you'll want to pack maternity pants & shirt that fit at 6 months. -Extra pair of socks for you -Outfit for your baby to wear home -Baby blanket -Camera -Your hairbrush, toothbrush, any other cosmetics you might want -Lip balm -Some energy bars That's about it. I actually didn't pack my bag until I was in labor, for both pregnancies. Don't worry, you'll have plenty of time to pack your bag. Once you're in labor, and before you go to the hospital, I strongly advise taking a long hot shower and eating a good meal. It's the last shower and good meal you'll have for a while.

Once you’re in labor, and before you go to the hospital, I strongly advise taking a long hot shower and eating a good meal. It’s the last shower and good meal you’ll have for a while.

Good luck and hang in there!

Secondly, who in their right mind goes anywhere but strait home right after your discharged? personally I didn’t pack a diaper bag for the hospital. first of all the hospital will provide everything you will need during your stay there for your baby, they discourage dressing them in your own outfits while there since it makes it harder for them to check the vitals and such.
