Hospitalbag

Hospitalbag

Fill your hospital bag with clothes for you and your baby. Don’t make a too big a deal from the hospital bag, you only need 2 outfits for the baby and 1-2 outfits for yourself. All disposables (i.e. nappies, maternity pads etc are provided by the hospital).

Hereby our essentials to put in your hospital bag.

BABY

  • 1 woolen blanket
  • 2 long sleeve bodysuits
  • 1 pair of (woolen) baby socks
  • 2 hats
  • 1 pair of pants of a onesie
  • 1 jacket or outdoor onesie (for the trip home)

MAMA

  • Outfit for after birth (loose fitting pants, cardigan)
  • Nursing bra
  • Toiletries
  • Woolen sokken (to keep your feet warm during labour)
  • Slippers
  • Hairband
  • Lipbalm
Real woolen baby clothes can be hard to find.  The shops have a great delivery service and high quality products!

You don’t need magazines/snacks/iPads etc. The hospital will provide food and drinks, and you probably won’t eat that much during labour.

In the event that you have to stay overnight or even for a few days you can keep a second bag ready at home which your partner can bring to the hospital after birth.
