Hospital Bags

So, with Madelyn's impending arrival, we are packed and ready for when it is time to make our way to the hospital.  Just for fun, I thought I would like to share what I have packed.

My bags
(The two smaller bags snap into the two larger bags,
so it will really only be 2 bags we carry in for me, and not 4!)

Hair Bag: comb, hair brush, an assortment of hair elastics and headbands

Toiletries: sanitary pads, make-up, pain relief spray, deodorant, contact solution, moisturizer, stool softener, lanolin, cotton swabs, contact case, lip balm, shampoo, conditioner, body wash, lotion, face wash,
make-up removing wipes, gum, tooth brush,
floss, tooth paste, hemorrhoid pads, face cleansing brush, flushable wipes

Clothing: nursing tanks, pajama pants, nursing bras, nursing dress,
towel, robe, briefs, nursing pads, slippers, socks

2 copies of birth plan, laptop, laptop charger,
cell phone charger, camera, camera battery charger

Madelyn's bag and nursing pillow

Madelyn's bag: blanket, photo dress and bonnet, swaddles, booties, socks, mittens, "Ready or not, here I come!" sticker, newborn & 3 month take-home outfits & hats, newborn diapers, wipes, pacifiers
I will also be carrying my own pillow from home.  
For the few items that I won't be able to pack until the last minute (like the laptop, camera, eyeglasses or make-up), I have written them on a notecard and placed it with my bags, so that I don't forget anything!

I think we're as ready as we can possibly be.  Now all we need is for Madelyn to decide she's ready to make her appearance!!!
