“Sorry for my appearance” as she has perfect neutral glam makeup and a super cute pony. Oh Meg, your sorry for my appearance is my trying hard 😂
Rebecca Sharpe same😅💯
She says it every single video. I find it annoying!
Rebecca Sharpe honestly though. 😂😍
Ann then why do you watch. 🤔
Ann what a coincidence, I find you very annoying 🤗
This is the perfect packing list! I’m a nurse in hospital and I can say that everything you’re bringing I would recommend. Bring your own blanket! Hospital sheets and blankets are like sand paper. 😂
alysondarling my hospital had the softest blanket. My husband took it home 🤣
Yes! I brought my own super soft throw blanket! And my boppy pillow to help with nursing!
My hospital only had thin sheets and I was so cold at night after I had my first that it kept me awake.
Mine has warm heated blankets.
It sounds so weird when you say “my husband” because I’m so used to just hearing Anthony 😂😂
haley devine I know I thought the same thing lol!!!
I feel like pregnancy has changed you so much already, for the better! ❤️ you’re going to be the most amazing momma!!!
You’ll never regret over packing, but you’ll regret not having something that could of made you feel more comfortable! Pack all you want girly!
Arely maldonado Yes! I overpacked and was thankful for having a wide variety of things. Better to have too much then not enough.
“Hopefully my next video I will have a healthy baby boy in my arms.”😭💙💘
She's not due till the end of January, so don't expect a video till February.
iladylegendary oh I’m not expecting anything. It was just touching seeing how excited she is🥰
@@abccats two weeks isnt the end of january, its the middle of january. She said she is 37 and 5. Which means she has 2 weeks or less left.
@@katelynsway2555 she is due on the 22nd, that's practically the end of the month.
She could give birth tonight or she could give birth in 4 weeks, who knows😅
Loving all these baby videos!!! Can’t wait to see when the little guy is born! It’s been so much fun following your journey all these years. From dating, to engaged and married and now pregnant.
Congratulations on everything! 💕
You look great. Statistics show majority of 1st time moms deliver 1 week & 1 day past their due date. Don’t stress it, he will come when he’s ready!
Danielle Clifton ☺️ I delivered my son one day before my actual due date. I totally prepared to go several days past.
I delivered 6 days early. I actually don’t know many personally that made it to their due dates.
I was late for my first and premature for my second. I swear these babies don’t give us any warnings! 😂
Funnily enough, I had my daughter 1 week & 1 day before my due date and I wasn’t prepared lol babies are on their own time 🤷🏻♀️😂
Ohh you are going to want to shower. I can’t imagine not wanting to wash off. I’m so excited for you to meet your little boy. The nurses will guide you through everything 💕 you got this!
Amanda Macmiller I’ve got two little girls, and didn’t shower until I got home with both of them. Hospital showers just seem 😬 to me. All personal preference. 😌
Jade here 🤢 I was covered in blood, I was dieing to have a wash 😂
Jade here very true 😊 Everyone has a different experience!
Best shower I EVER had was after giving birth!!!!!
Unless she has a c section, might be too hard
I found that the best shoes for the hospital stay was slides. You can wear them with or without socks and they won’t get too dirt and super easy to wash. Many Blessings from Colorado❤️
Karlita’s Way yes. And a lot of them you can use as shower shoes too if need be, although I will often stand on two wash clothes at hospital, shower or public place. At least the first time, then you can make sure when they come in to clean they really clean the shower floor.
I work on L&D and I recommend to all the patients to leave their bags in the trunk of the car until they are actually admitted or better yet, after they have delivered. I have seen WAY too many times pts arrive with suitcases like they are moving in and they aren’t even in labour and are sent home over and over. Also, the hospital is not responsible for stolen items so if you’re rushed to the OR for an emergency section your belongings will be unattended. Just something to keep in mind. Also, L&D should be for the mom and dad to be only. Keep the family visits for the postpartum side :) that’s just my 2 cents. Good luck!!!
I have been watching for about 7 years now. And I have to say, you look genuinely happy in this video. You deserve it. ❤️
I had my baby at 37 weeks 5 days on August 10th 2019 💙💙my water broke right after I got home from work! Best day of my life!
August 10th is my daughter's Birthday!
Same! Water broke at 37+3, baby boy came 37+5 on Nov 20th. Megs baby really could come any day now!
My little guy came at 37+5 too in October!
My baby boy is August 9th 2019 my water didn’t broke though. I came to hospital 6cm and when they asked why i didn’t come sooner i said my water didn’t break yet. 😂 First time mom here i had no idea i was in labor already.
oh my gosh - absolutely STUNNING Megan! I have truly admired how you get ready everyday while in your most uncomfortable part of pregnancy. I cannot wait to watch your birth story and meet your baby boy! xoxo wishing you all the best.
Don't ever apologize,Your always gorgeous..I'm a Mom of four and a Nana of six..I will never ever forget any of my pregnancies and every one was sooo hard followed by four c-sections but I wouldn't trade it for the world..I'm blessed to have all my kids,it's such a wonderful,stressful,scary life changing event but one look at your precious baby boy and your sooo in love nothing else matters..enjoy this time,I'm sure whatever you don't have your Moms,family will always make sure you have everything,but you both seem pretty well organized,sending hugs and support and sooo much love and care from Huntington Beach Ca ☀️🌊
I’m watching this and can’t help but think how everything you’ve really prayed and dreamed of is coming to fruition! I know you’ve had trials and I am very happy for you. I can’t wait to “meet” the baby. Wishing you an easy delivery. Enjoy every moment because these are the days you’ve hoped for! Congrats! 💙
“I’m having bad Braxton Hicks and backaches” Me: that’s contractions. 2 days later she has the baby😭
Meg pregnancy literately looks AMAZING on you! I thought you looked gorgeous before but WHOA you look absolutely stunning pregnant, and you have such a beautiful glow too! ❤️💙
Is your ring too tight? I saw your finger was red! I would recommend you taking them off as soon as possible. In case of an emergency c section, if they can’t get it off, they will cut it off.
R&Cplus3 That’s something I thought about. Future reference, maybe switch to one of those silicone rings if you (as is anyone lol) just want to wear a ring when hands are swollen. I see people wear them at the gym and stuff! Would be so sad to have my ring cut off. 🥺❤️
Genuine question, why would they cut her ring off? I’ve had an emergency C section and a semi planned c section and they didn’t make me remove my rings
Marina R From what I’ve been told, it’s due to possible burns. I believe the machine they use to stop bleeding can send a shock of some sort through your body and it can heat up the metal on your finger or neck or whatever you’re wearing. I’m not positive but I’ve heard of it being done and I’ve had them take my jewelry off as well, and I’ve had 3 c sections.
R&Cplus3 nice to know! I’ve had 2. One was an emergency the other was supposed to be a Vbac but my doctor wasn’t on call when I went into labor and the other doctor I ended up seeing wouldn’t do a Vbac
R&Cplus3 it’s definitely true! They even cut of my bra 🥴
Maybe bring plain onesies for under the clothes to keep baby warm! Can’t wait to see him!!
It's crazy how invested I am with your pregnancy, literally woke up twice in the night to check if you had had him on your Instagram (im in the UK so was night) I have been watching you since your pink & purple room in your parents house haha I actually feel like I know you so well x I can't be more excited to met Baby M. God bless you & family Meg xx
My favorite saying I heard from Ashlee Gadd from the Coffee+Crumbs podcast is "Do that the thing that you need to do to feel the way that you want to feel" and that stuck with me. Showering after delivery was always a must for me.
Ok here’s a couple things NO ONE told me about post partum that I wish someone did
- so much blood, for about 4 weeks. I had a C section and I didn’t think I would bleed a lot but I was wrong. Vaginal or C section expect a lot of blood
- breastfeeding is so painful in the beginning. It will take up to a week for your milk to come in, until then it’s just colostrum. When the milk comes in it feels like tingling/sharp pain.. at least it did for me
- your hormones will be all over the place! I cried about everything for like 4 weeks, happy/sad/upset, you’ll feel overwhelmed but I promise it gets better after those initial 4 weeks
I hope that is insightful! So happy for you & cant wait to see baby boy!
You and Anthony your own pillows!!! I can’t stress it. Been there, done it. Two times 😂 and if he’s gonna sleep then a blanket or two for y’all to have!
I follow you for like 8years now and I feel like we’ve been growing together these past years . I had two daughters meanwhile and now seeing you become a mom is so exciting, it’s like your my friend . I wish you a wonderful delivery and a healthy and quick recovery. Can’t wait to see your baby boy in your arms! 🙏🏻🥳🎉😘❤️❤️❤️
Great video Meg. Im currently 35 weeks and this is my second baby. I serioudly was not prepared the first time around, i for sure over packed and didnt use anything i packed minus my face wash, shampoo and conditioner and toothbrush. You are currently in labor and i cant wait to see your baby boy. Good luck.
How did the time fly so fast?????? 37 weeks already!
Lisa M I wonder if she feels the same way lol it seems like just yesterday they were getting the doggie
If you can’t wash the slippers you might not want to bring. They do give you grippy socks to wear. I wouldn’t bother with bringing towels because when it’s wet you will have to bring it home. When you do a walk of the hospital you can see what they offer. I don’t remember the towels being small. You should obviously only take these suggestions if they work for you. Like you said everyone is different. Bring an empty bag for any gifts and all the stuff you get from the hospital. Anything on the cart such as diapers and wipes they can’t take back and reuse. So take everything! You already mentioned taking a bag for dirty clothes which is also my other must!
So excited for you guys! One thing that I recommend is not bringing all your bags in till after you have the baby and get into your own room. I have 3 kids so I had to learn that the hard way lol.
Are you gonna be recording the birth!?? I hope so! 💙
I’ve been watching you for years and just have to say I am so happy for you! You look amazing and you can see just how happy you are! I am so excited to see baby M!!
I been watching your channel for like 6 years now and I still can’t believe your having a baby❤️ congratulations girl!!
Pregnancy looks absolutely amazing on you Meg😍💖
She’s in labor! Stay up to date on her insta!
Extra jammies are definitely necessary.. When i had my son I showered and ended up bleeding though mine pretty shortly after!
Em ily same! Or breast milk leakage ughh lol
Em ily I did that same thing I had everyone in the room but they did go shopping for me so that’s a plus
Don’t let people tell you you’re overpacking. I think you have the right amount of things! It’s all about making you feel good and well prepared. It doesn’t affect anybody else!
Is it weird that I’m gonna miss pregnant Meg?! 🥺❤️
Erin Davis it's ok I think she will have more lol
This video is so aesthetically pleasing. You’re glowing! I’ve been dying for this video from you since like before you were even pregnant lol 💖
And after labor and delivery you should update us on how much of all this you actually needed and used 🤗
Ahhh I’m so freaking excited for Megan to finally be a mommy!! Can’t wait to meet baby M😍
Have you seen those pillow cases and matching jammies and hospital gowns that a lot of the youtubers have worn? They’re all matching and sooo cute and so good for photos. I know Aaryn Williams has them in her hospital bag videos. They also have matching outfits for the baby too. I think it’s so sweet and so up your alley.
I’m so excited for Anthony and you. 💙
I’m getting Mason vibes. Can’t wait for the name reveal!
Brooke Or Meighson
She’s just gonna use the same exact name as Casey Holmes?? 😳
maybememories she never said that’s the name? Lol
maybememories i thought the same thing haha and they’re super good friends so i don’t think it’s Mason but who knows! But “baby M”, the M stands for Morrison which is their last name
@@maybememories925 we don't know but even if she does who cares lol? They don't hang out on a daily basis. Do they even live in the same city?
LMAO “I’m sorry about my appearance” uhm girl, you look better than me on my BEST days! 🤣
What I wish I would of brought that no one mentioned was Blankets ! Cozy/Fluffy
For you & baby ! The bassinet in the hospital is super uncomfortable n hard for baby so maybe like a snuggle me organic or lots of cozy/fluffy blankets
As well for yourself & for hubby because those hospital beds & little couch beds for hubby are NOT comfortable ! Me & my husband got stuck at the hospital for 6 days 😩 so bring as much as you want! The whole house even lol anything to make you as comfortable as possible
I’m so happy right now 😭 I used to watch all your videos a few years back but I stopped being interested in the beauty world.. to see you pop up as a soon to be mama made my heart so warm.
Your footage quality is SOO GOOD! I’m so excited for you and can’t wait to follow along with you! You’re gonna me an amazing mother 💜 love you!
I’m expecting baby number two, and I’ll be rewatching your videos! I’m so excited! I can’t wait for baby M to come!
watching this even though I’m not pregnant lol I just watched your graduation video the other day & now you’re waiting for you baby boy 🥺 can’t wait to see him, you’re doing great Meg! 💙
Those nursing tank tops were a MUST HAVE for me. I wore them every day my whole 15 month nursing journey. I re bought them around 8 months because they got dingy and the cups were getting tattered. So keep that in mind :)
Bring a blanket over a pillow! I much preferred to have a blanket hospital ones aren’t the best!
Both of my labors I brought the same blanket and was so happy! Lol
Yes definitely bring your own towels, wash cloths and flip flops for showering. Their towels are small, thin and rough. You can call ahead to see what hospital will provide for mommy and baby and then just pack what they don't give you. I know each hospital is different on what they provide. For my first baby I was an over packer and didn't use a lot of things while staying there. I'd pack small makeup bag becuz after baby you may feel less pretty and for me just putting on some mascara and lip gloss made me feel better.
I used the copper pearl swaddle blankets they look similar in fabric of what you have and the nurses all loved them. So much softer than what they had at the hospital.
I know that they sound terrible, but the Always Discreet Boutique (similar to Depends) were a life saver! They helped when my water broke in the car and after my birth. Definitely better than the huge pad and those mesh panties. Also saved my car from getting soaked. My water broke at exactly 38 weeks. You’re so close girl! 💙
I’m so excited for the both of you I can’t wait to meet baby M 💙
I got a tiny bit of shampoo on my stitches and I cried in pain so you want body wash that has no perfume/ scent at all !! X
You’re seriously soo beautiful 💕 have no babies yet, but this excites me for you! Iv been watching you for soooo many years and to see your growth and happiness is amazing! I’ll be praying you and your baby 🙏
What happened to the other diaper bag you made a video on?
It was a sponsorship
El_love yeah I figured but it sucks seeing her promote it and then not even use it :(
Courtney Janet but that’s 98% of her videos, promoting things she herself won’t actually use. It looked like a nice bag so hopefully others will use it
El_love sad but true.
Great packing. I always tell moms to bring a legging and also a loose waist sweatpants. I had an unexpected c section and couldnt imagine trying to put leggings on lol.
YES flip flops for the shower :)
I “overpacked” in September when I had my son, BUT I’d do it over again the same way just in case. I had sudden complications during labor so I couldn’t even move nor didI care what I was wearing. As gross and uncomfortable they say hospital stuff is, I did not care to use my stuff because I was so tired. I didn’t use any of my baby stuff besides outfit he went home in. They stay swaddled so much the extra baby gear went unused. It’s good you packed as much as you did but don’t be surprised if you don’t use 90% of it. Good luck, you got this mama!!
Bring a little makeup. I didn’t for my first and wished I did. I was very happy I did for my second. Looking at pictures I wish I did for both. Congrats
I don’t think you have overpacked at all, I feel like I had the same amount in my bags when I had my daughter. A lot of it wasn’t used but it’s better to be safe! So excited for you Meg, your bump is beautiful. Hopefully baby boy arrives soon ❤️
Do not be afraid to ask for anything you may need in the hospital. Of course they will give the basics for after birth. For example if you are cramping, ask for a heat pad. They will give it to you, you just need to ask. My friend is a delivery nurse and she told me what to ask for if I didn’t get something.
Your pregnancy glow is UNREAL! I'm so happy and excited for you to meet your baby boy and bring him home! I had my son in March (first baby too) and motherhood is the most hardworking but rewarding job there is! You are in my thoughts and prayers for a safe labor and delivery, god bless!💙💙
Never apologize for the way you look, you are always stunning whether in sweats, no makeup or glammed up!
Also, I fully overpacked for my son’s hospital bag (also my first) and I don’t regret it at all!
Cannot wait for Baby Morrison to arrive 🤍🤍
Yayyy she had the baby congratulations 🎉🍾🎊🎈
Your bag is almost identical to what I packed! I think you did great! I took huge overnight maxi pads with me and they were just too big lol. I literally didn’t bleed that much. I only needed a regular maxi pad after birth. So you never know! So excited for you!!
So excited for you and Anthony! The love you experience for your children is like no other feeling in the world. Praying for a happy healthy little boy and I can't wait to see him! By the way, I definitely don't think you over packed, it's an exciting experience and you just want to be prepared! Rather over pack than under 😁👶👨👩👧👦💕
I watched the crap outta you back in the day. Let’s get back in it it’s been 4 years! Whatcha got MAMA !!! 🥰🙏🏼😇
I've been watching you for year's now. I love seeing your journey through your first pregnancy. You look absolutely beautiful. I hope you have an amazingly smooth delivery and healthy baby boy.
Awww Anthony wanted to show his bag as well! Sometimes we forget that is the husband’s baby as well. Congratulations to both of you!!!!!
So crazy to think i used to watch your daily makeup routines during highschool and now you’re preparing for your first baby. Congratulations💜🥺
Packing the bags is SO fun! My son is 3.5 months old and I still love packing up the diaper bag before we go places😂
I have 3 babies & the first shower after giving birth is AMAZING!! Also shoes definitely don’t matter, I never worried with my 3 kids. Also with clothing, I recommend bringing 2 sizes! Newborn & 0/3 my son was born 9lbs 11oz & completely skipped newborn.
Will you be filming a labor and delivery vlog?! I would love to see that!! ❤️❤️
AHH! He's almost here! Wishing you and Ant both health and happiness during the upcoming labor! Can't wait to meet him!
Can’t believe she gave birth the next day 🥺🥺🥺
When you start up your videos again you should do a follow up video of what you ended up needing and using and what you didn’t!
If you plan to circumcise (person choice and a private one) but make sure you have vaseline at home ready when you bring him home. Also, gripe water is good to have on hand for home. And, for you have pads ready at home. And don't feel bad everyone over packs for baby.
I’m so excited for you to have your baby ❤️
You are being so realistic about this too which is refreshing.
I definitely recommend Depends.. it sounds weird but they are so much more comfortable than the mesh underwear and giant pads. I know lots of women do that instead. ☺️ so I am glad that you got some of those too! This time around I plan to bring Depends to the hospital with me.
Another thing.. I 100% recommend writing your last minute list and putting it on the door so Anthony can help grab the stuff. ☺️ We brought our own pillows and blankets. It was more for my husband than myself though.
Hey meg! I’ve been following you for a long time and it’s so cool to see u have your first baby. I just had mine this past June and I brought too much crap. You are doing really well with your packing tho! I let these TH-cam vids influence me too much lol I’ll give you some suggestions that would have worked for me! Good luck 💛
-YES to the hair and makeup products
-Yes to the depends. 1pck is good enough then a pack of regular pads and panty liners. Don’t get huge packs either cause I had a lot left over, you don’t bleed that much.
-Bring your own hygiene stuff and wet wipes. I had to wash myself off at the sink cause of my IV. They give you towels and they get dirty fast so I wouldn’t use my own cause they aren’t guna wash it for you. You will be very messy down there the first few days.
-loose pajamas are cool, you would be able to see your big hospital pads or diaper though leggings.
-they gave me everything but baby powder for my son.
-I brought him clothes but 7lbs he was still swimming in newborn clothes and stayed swaddled the whole time anyway. They don’t give baby socks and yes bring the coming home outfit.
-I took house slippers as well
-DONT BE NERVOUS. Labor is not half as bad as women make it out to be. I can’t believe how bad is WASNT and that’s with 4 hours of pushing 🙄 I had an epidural and You don’t feel a damn thing I swear. And you don’t feel the needle for that either!
-also babies will get used to whatever bottle or pacifier u give them so pick whatever kind you have an abundance of.
-if u want to breastfeed please start from the beginning and don’t stop. No one told me how anything works and I let the fact that I had visitors in the room stop me and I also slept all I could when I got home and used the milk the hospital gave us. When I finally tried to start it was too late. I thought it flowed like a river but I was wrong! Lol
-also fenugreek pills are good for milk flow. I let a lady tell me they weren’t good cause your baby will have gas but it’s only for the few days u take it so you can kickstart your milk. I waited to long to try them. Just get the baby frida thing for gas and they are good to go.
-If there’s one thing you should buy for sure when he is born is the nose frida. Out of all the basics we use this is the product you will be thanking god you have when your baby gets sniffles after a while.
You could also be induced!!! Something to prepare for. I was induced at 41 and 4 💗
Meg is in labor everyone! 💙 she posted on Instagram this morning. Good luck momma!!!
For sure bring a pillow and blanket! I suggest getting a new pillow case for the hospital. For both of you! Their blankets are paper thin. And I guess I thought most hospitals gave you a nice big cup, ours does! And our hospital won’t let you change your baby in your clothes (unless for quick pictures) until you are going home for safety purposes.
Go on Amazon and search for the Premie Mittens by Nurses Choice. They are the BEST baby mittens and don’t fall off constantly like almost all the rest do. It doesn’t matter that your baby isn’t a premie - they will fit. I recommend them to every pregnant person I know and usually throw a pack of them in with every baby shower gift. They are one of my “must haves” for a newborn and I wish I had discovered them earlier! Those freaking baby mittens will drive you insane otherwise!
I don’t think you over packed.. you could end up being there for a couple days depending what happens. If a c section happens it will be a few days! You did great.
Also right before my third was born I had back aches that were so insane I had to sit with hot water from a shower for hours on it. And than labour at 37 weeks exactly... baby will come sooner than you know!! So excited !
I brought for both of my kids all this and more. I used everything I brought and I was comfortable. You will want to be comfortable and have your own things with you. I was always cold with both of my kids, I had pants and a robe and slippers and just wanted to feel comfy.
why do people not like her and comment such rude things?
Lindsey Renae because people suck and they they can literally just say ANYTHING to people online. It’s unreal. If I didn’t like someone or things they said I would just click out and not watch them. I have no idea why people get off on hurting other people’s feelings. We all are different. People suck so bad sometimes. I don’t get down with the thought, “they put their whole lives on the internet so they deserve hearing everything anyone has to say.” Ugh.
cause people are really weird and miserable
Cause she kinda goes overboard and always seems a bit mentally/emotionally unstable. That’s just what I’ve read from comments on her tweets. I personally just think it’s cause she’s young and people don’t like how privileged she is/comes off. It’s stupid honestly. It takes so much energy to be a hater, like, just leave her alone and move on guys hahah she’s a sweet girl, you can tell.
It's getting close very exciting congratulations
I definitely don’t think you overpacked. I thought I did but thankfully my mom took clothes home and washed them. Definitely pillow and blankets. I even had my mom bring me a fan I had a c-section and my body temp was all over the place
One tip I would give would be to wear contacts during labour if you can! I ended up having an emergency cesarean and was wearing glasses during labour, but I had to take them off for the surgery. I was in the midst of contractions and getting prepped so wasn’t able to put contacts on! When my son was born they took him quickly to the paediatrician for a check and I could barely see what was happening 😩 xx
I mean yeah ya did over pack for sure. But it’s your birth and you have to carry it all and remember to bring it all home. I’m a NICU RN and of course the hospital supplies towels and yes they’re small. Most woman don’t take a shower there but some do before labor to help. The do tend to wash of if wanted. They supply the big hospital jug with a straw and you can keep it. And I’ve never seen a man take a shower at the hospital. Most go home... but it’s your birth!!!!! I’m just amazed that y’all are packing 3 bags!!!!!!! 😩 I think the pillow and blanket are a good idea. You can wash all of that. Everyone’s experience is different. Good luck. You won’t worry about anything but yourself and the baby in the end. 😍
Awww meg your ring finger is so red!!! My rings didn’t fit for a while either but right after I gave birth they suddenly did! And yes I agree 100% with you about packing! There’s no right or wrong way. To each their own! It’s better to be prepared that’s what I always go by! Good luck and can’t wait to hear your birth story omg!!!! Im so excited for you!!! You’re stronger than you think trusttttt me!!!
I am definitely an advocate for packing more than you think you need. My daughter had to be in the NICU for 3 days so we were there for 4! You never know how long you will have to stay.
The lighter hair keeps throwing me. I keep scrolling past the video not recognizing you. I am super happy for you and am excited to welcome you to the mommy club!! Boys are super easy, well that was my experience, just remember to enjoy every single moment because it goes by way too fast. Mine has already graduated college and is onto grad school.
I wanted to shower so badly after I gave birth but I couldn't even stand without getting dizzy my nurse wouldn't let me until the next day. Felt so good the next day. And showered again at home. Feel so much better showering at home haha
You look beautiful as always! 😍💙 Can’t wait to see the handsome baby boy! 😭 💙
The cutest pregnant glowing mommy to be! 🥰 Praying for y’all Meg!! 🙏🏻♥️
Most hospitals don’t supply wipes. They give you these clothes that you have to wet each time. They also don’t supply diaper cream (A&D ointment) is good when they are brandy new just to prevent irritation
Good job with the hats and hand covers. Make sure you have NB & 0-3mO outfits. My baby was so small, but you’re far a long and i dont know his estimated weight. Congrats. You’re glowing and can’t wait to see mom videos!!! 💞
If your best friend Christa is pregnant it would have been so cool to watch you guys make a video about your pregnancy
Waist trainner
Fuzy socks
Blanket
Beanie
Sweats & hoodie, sherpa cardigan
I was watching your hospital bag video & i feel like other things you need that you didnt mention is a postpartum waist trainer. You should read more on it but its very beneficial for your body to get back, specially because you'll feel jiggly & it helps all your organs & everything to recuparate. You need to wear it like after you shower at the hospital & for all the 40days. It's something all our mexican gramas tell us. You will also want some fuzzy socks, because your feet get really cold & make sure to not step on the floor barefoot not even at your house for 4weeks. You will also want like a beanie or something to cover yours ears, make sure no air gets in your ears for at least two weeks. To come home some loose sweats & a cozy sweater or sherpa. You wont want to be in tight clothes like leggings , it will feel funky with the big diaper they give you. Don't forget it doesn't matter how you look you just had a baby. Lastly, your blanket because it gets cold. You dont need to overpack on things like extra slippers just use something you slip on & off, make sure to go home with boots or just well covered so no air hits you. Take care of yourself and enjoy your baby & husband bonding time. Best wishes congrats to both of you & your mom& dad. I've been watching you for a while (pink room at your parents lol) So excited for You. Your happiness is the best, i love seeing you happy again.
