You can also go anytime for weigh-ins for the baby and they can show you how to pump. Brookwood does show you how to pump when you are still in the hospital but St. V doesn't. I had to have a friend show me how...It's also good to stock up on pads for when you get home. You don't want the hubs to make that trip. Nipple cream and ice packs are also good for pain relief. Comfy pants/leggings are good for post-partum because you will have nurses and doctors doing exams so the more comfortable/easy access the better. Getting close! :)Lindsey Scotthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17019678596295068929noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1708183519853530.post-26670482428361100422011-11-01T18:38:16.938-05:002011-11-01T18:38:16.938-05:00Definitely invest in a good nursing bra.

You'll be wearing it a lot :) My hosital let me use my own pads and I was glad because, like someone else said, the ones at the hospital are HUGE! Bring your Boppy. Here's hoping you have no incisions or repairs, but you may want to take something softer than jeans to wear on your bottom half to come home from the hospital. I ended up wearing my pajama pants home :) Best wishes!!!Elizabethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00759759118110731497noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1708183519853530.post-49730808403654029012011-10-31T19:52:32.215-05:002011-10-31T19:52:32.215-05:00I really liked the sleep nursing bras from Target....I really liked the sleep nursing bras from Target. Especially for right at the beginning. I also liked their nursing tank tops. If you're not bringing your pump I wouldn't bother with your accessories either. If you have to rent a pump they'll give you a new set of accessories. The only thing I could think of that isn't on your list is nursing pads. As for panties, I'd take some you've been wearing at the end of your pregnancy that may be kind of old. You'll be surprised how much they've stretched out and are ruined. I'd rather chunk those and buy some new ones after the gross part is over :)Whitneyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09769370959382472686noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1708183519853530.post-45186698343807026002011-10-31T17:33:27.999-05:002011-10-31T17:33:27.999-05:00make sure you bring larger panties than you would ...make sure you bring larger panties than you would normally wear because you will have an adult diaper on under them for the first day or so.Janahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05497060748808008052noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1708183519853530.post-38367927797853730432011-10-31T14:49:45.204-05:002011-10-31T14:49:45.204-05:00Unless Carter is born early (God forbid) and you H...Unless Carter is born early (God forbid) and you HAVE to pump, I wouldn't worry with bringing your pumping accessories...or pumping at all while at the hospital. That's just me though. I'd DEFINITELY bring a boppy pillow (or other nursing pillow of your choice)...must have in my opinion!!! :)Whitney J.https://www.blogger.com/profile/16351474331637446014noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1708183519853530.post-16750595516233439632011-10-31T14:22:39.016-05:002011-10-31T14:22:39.016-05:00Personally, I loved nursing tanks!

But I can tell you that I would want my pillow, and the regular stuff like phone and charger and you have that. You might want to bring a power strip in case you only have access to one plug or something. Also, you said you didn't have slippers- target has some for way cheap that are way cute. But will you really be walking a lot anyway?Robbie https://www.blogger.com/profile/02032003990402174393noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1708183519853530.post-61793125134647570942011-10-31T13:09:52.926-05:002011-10-31T13:09:52.926-05:00Marcie,

Also, they will have a few blankets they provide for swaddling as well. Hope this helps and congrats!The Sandersonshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10713933635703444810noreply@blogger.com
