Personal items, especially slipers, robe, and pajamas Bring one to two maternity dresses, for going out and staying in, as well as a bath and face towel. Don’t forget to bring sets of underwear. You need to be comfortable yet presentable, because you’ll surely be entertaining visitors at the the hospital.

Include two packs of sanitary (maternity) napkins and a blanket, in case the hospital-issued ones won’t suffice. ADVERTISING 2.
