I'm having a c-section?

Question

On monday i'm having a c-section but i'm having a hard time packing for my hospital stay.....please help!

Answer 1

I wouldn't stress, the hospital will provide most of your needs so it's okay if you forget something.  I like to bring my own nightgown, slippers, underwear, maternity bra, toothbrush, toothpaste, deodorant and something really comfortable to leave the hospital in, like one of my maternity dcamera.  I also like to pack a camera so we don't forget it and of course the baby's outfit, including hat and socks.  Plan for a four day three night stay although it may be less. Hope this helps.  Congratualtions and good luck!

Answer 4

ive had two c sections and having my third in feb so I'm a pro!! Pack some chap stick, socks, bring your own pillow, a zip lock baggie for when you have to remove your wedding ring and other jewlery, a couple of comfy night gowns,a tooth brush, some overnight pads(no tampons), magazines(lots of them) a camera, shampoo(the ones they give your are only enough to wash half your head)! Some of those face cleaning wipes because you'll be too sore at first to go to the sink and your gonna feel like you need to freshen up! Oh and bring your cell phone charger and some snacks that you know you love, and a takeout menu from your favorite restaurant to make sending people for food easier!!  And don't forget to pack your baby a going home outfit for pictures! Good luck and remember, the pain doesn't last long and your baby will be well worth it!!!
