Something to sleep in and a change of clothes for Kyle. Maybe even some face wash, moisturizer and a bit of makeup, maybe stuff you could wear but don't wear all the time. Because like Sarah said, things can get painful in a hurry. And if you're in a hurry while in pain, you're likely to forget stuff! (I doubt you'll forget your camera, but definitely keep it charged!) I left my bag in the car most of the time.Alishahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14019520991900701799noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5708388659585920664.post-69159881566039035312012-11-24T18:07:58.192-06:002012-11-24T18:07:58.192-06:00yes. because if your contractions get painful in a...yes. because if your contractions get painful in a hurry, or if your water breaks and things are rushed, you're not going to remember what to take, and you will both end up at the hospital without a toothbrush. i did buy extra toothbrushes and i packed travel toothpaste from a dentist visit. then like a nursing bra you won't need until then anyway, so you could pack that. <br /><br />you'll need stuff for mj, like cute little sleepers and a coming home outfit, that you will want to have with you. also, her baby book, to get her footprints in at the hospital (they will do that for you). <br /><br />and a camera should always be charged and ready with a clear or mostly clear memory card, but not necessarily packed in your bag. (i put my camera in the bag every night for a while, though.)<br /><br />just don't count on having it together to get what you need and also having time to get it. you may have a slow early labor and have plenty of time, or you could wake up at 2am in a puddle. :)<br /><br />(i hope this didn't have a bossy tone, as it wasn't intended. just from experience, you'll want to be very sure NOT to forget certain things.)sarahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16939880213398997678noreply@blogger.com
