What to Bring to the Hospital

For the Labor or Birthing Room:

• Your favorite music and speaker that can help soothe you
• A camera and video camera to catch those magic moments
• Powders, lotions or massaging oils that you like
• A hairbrush if you like having your hair brushed for comfort
• A tennis ball for a counter massage should lower backache become a problem.
• Heavy socks in case your feet become cold

For the Hospital Room:

• A robe
• Perfume, powder or body spray…whatever makes you feel fresh
• Toiletries, including shampoo, toothpaste, lotion, makeup and any other beauty or hygiene products you may want
• A going-home outfit for you (something loose and comfortable that fit you in your second or third trimester)
• A going-home outfit for the baby and a blanket if it is cold
• Baby car seat and base for our nurses to check for safety
