Moms, comment things you found useful in your hospital bag! I can't decide what I'm actually gonna need.

Your own pillows!!! Maybe your own blanket too. Stuff to help you freshen up.. Maybe dry shampoo, pony tails, deodorant, face wipes... I personally didn't need much entertainment items. New baby is exciting enough!! Think COMFORT and convenience.

A nursing bra and reusable nursing pads. So much more comfortable. Honestly, they pretty much provide everything else you'll need. I even used their disposable undies so I didn't have to worry about ruining mine. Plus they were very comfortable.

I had clothes for my self, pads I liked to use( make sure they are super absorbent type). Going home outfit for the baby with blanket to go home with. Pacifier I wanted the baby to use and toiletries. The hospital provided everything else I would've needed for the baby( blankets,diapers, creams) so save that stuff for when you go home with baby

Slippers, camera and yoga pants! The hospital provided almost everything else I packed that I thought I'd really need(tucks pads, dermoplast spray, laxatives, pads, underwear...)and try to take home some of the disposable undies and ice pack pads. Everytime you get a new nurse slip whatever's in the room in your bag and ask for more(this includes diapers and wipes!!) we came home with a jackpot of goodies that were very useful!

I second the pillow. Hospital pillows are horrible. Socks, robe, comfy clothes, towel, toiletries.

A lot of hospitals (-at least by me) provide nipple cream and it's covered under your hospital stay so mise well use it!

Snacks for daddy. Labor can be long and you don't want him to have to leave the room on you. Remember this is tough on him too

Oh yes. And your own pillow and blanket. It makes all of the difference when you're trying to relax and sleep or nurse your baby.
