What to Pack for Childbirth?

Preparing for your baby's arrival is an unforgettable milestone and one of the most important stages in a parent's life. This journey begins weeks before your baby's due date. A thoughtfully packed hospital bag can help you face the big day with ease, allowing you to focus on your emotions and the moment itself.

Before you start gathering items for your parent backpack, it's a good idea to familiarize yourself with the policies and procedures of your chosen maternity hospital. Many facilities provide essential items for expectant mothers, so understanding their offerings can help you avoid unnecessary or redundant packing.

What should a mother bring?

Start by gathering all the necessary documents to ensure a smooth process. Important documents such as your ID/passport, health insurance, doctor's referral and more should not be forgotten.

It's also important to dress comfortably to feel at home. A bathrobe, slippers, socks, underwear, nursing bra, and clothes for the day of discharge should be sufficient for these few days. Don't forget toiletries, towels of various sizes, diapers, and other personal hygiene items.

Essential items for the baby

Caring for your newborn begins the moment he/she is born. Both mother and baby need special attention. When it comes to baby essentials, make sure you have everything you need because babies need a lot of things.

You'll need comfortable clothing for your baby, such as a bib, hat, socks, and mittens, as well as disposable and muslin swaddles, baby detergent, hypoallergenic wipes, and a special moisturizer for baby's delicate skin. If you plan to bottle feed, consider packing a pacifier and bottles.

What to prepare for the discharge day?

The day you leave the hospital is full of emotion and every detail matters. For this special day, you can prepare clothes for you and your baby, a cozy nest, a warm blanket, and any accessories you prefer.

After you leave the maternity hospital, it's important to make sure your baby gets home safely and comfortably. An baby car seat is essential to ensure both comfort and safety for your family.

Prepare a checklist ahead of time to make packing easier. That way you don't have to rush and can arrive at the hospital with everything you need.

If you're expecting, it's time to create a comfortable environment for your baby at home. Labebe Boutique can help you get everything you need for every stage of your baby's life, all in one place.
