A friend of mine had a baby recently...make sure to bring: -your own toothbrush & toothpaste-hospital stuff is yucky! -your own pads and comfy cotton underwear -a bathrobe -movies to watch -list of phone numbers & your cell charger -a good book -hand lotion and chapstick-she said it's really dry in the hospital |
keeping fingers crossed for you!! |
Congratulations! Wishing you all the best. Can't wait to see your precious little bundle. |
How exciting! Best wishes on a safe delivery and healthy baby! Be sure and take slippers, warm socks, your robe, your own toothbrush, toothpaste, soap, shampoo, comfortable pjs, change for vending machine, phone numbers, going home outfits for you and Tess. Get your car seat ready. Blanket for Tess going home. You might want a blanket for your stay at the hospital. Movie, book, magazine, etc. and some snacks for your stay. I find hospital food yucky. Don't worry, if you forget something your husband or a family member will take care of it! I am so excited for you! My first baby just turned 16yr today and your post has brought back many memories. GOOD LUCK! |
Oh this is sooooooooo exciting :yay_jump: :yay_jump: Lil' Miss Tess is soon to enter the world. Although it's been many years since I've had my two (they are now 24/26) I still remember it like it was yesterday....what an exciting time for you...treasure every moment of it.... Sending you wishes for a easy/smooth delivery for both you and Tess....God Bless you both... |
Aw hopefully she's coming! Wishing you an easy delivery if it's time!!! I've never been pregnant so I don't know anything, but you must be soo excited for her to come! |
How exciting Shana!Do you by any chance feel energetic.I have three children and it wasnt until I had my second that i realized that we go though what is called a "Nesting Stage" Its our body telling us to get ready for the baby.Im telling you with my second daughter I suddenly had this burst of energy and i spent hours cleaning my house, even after I had just cleaned it the day before.lol.A few hours later bang! there where the contractions.It also happened with my third child.Make sure you keep us posted. |
I also wanted to give you a tip about keeping your focus away from your labor pain..It really helped to focus on one thing in the room.I was told in lamaze class to take a picture and keep focused on the picture while your having the contraction.I forgot to take a picture.(Go figure after all that planning)But I focused on a painting on the wall of a mother holding her baby.I imagined it being mine.It really helped to soothe me.It took my mind of the pain so i felt less of it.I hope you have your baby soon.i know towards the end you just want to finally meet your bundle of joy! |

With all 3 of my boys I lost my plug and had them within 24 hours (hint hint!;)) My water has never broke on it's own either. They had to break it at the hosp. How exciting this is! A new baby on YT, lol!:D |
How exciting for you! I'll keep my fingers crossed that things get moving for you! Good luck to you! If you have What to expect when your expecting they have a great list of things to pack in your hospital bag. |
Oh wow! I just bet little Tess is going to make her appearance sooner than expected! How exciting! With my first, I lost my plug and went into labor about 12 hours later. I don't know if anyone, in giving you ideas of what to take...did anyone say to take your lap top so someone can keep us informed? We'll be going crazy wondering! Big hugs and best wishes to you for a fast and easy delivery! |
So true about the cleaning! Have you been cleaning today Shana? I worked full time with my first son, I was nesting at work! On my last scheduled day of work I was sickened by the bathrooms and was scrubbing them! We had a janitor but apparently i had lost my mind and just didn't think he was doing a good enough job. My water broke the next night and I had my son the next day. Boy was I pissed i didn't get atleast a few days off from work first LOL All I can think of to bring is a hair tie, socks, robe and chapstick. Everything else hubby can run home for later. And unfortunately, take a maternity outfit to wear home. It's a bummer but you will still be retaining a lot of water if not more bloated than before. It takes a while for the tummy to go down. |
OMgosh! How excited am I!?!?! :D |
oohhh how exciting! so maybe Tess will not be born on my birthday... but much earlier!!!??? |
