Hello everyone!
I
can't believe that its almost time for me to welcome my little guy
into the world. I can't be more happy. I just can't wait to hold him
in my arms and cuddle with him. When I started this blog, around this
time last year, I would never have thought that I would be
anticipating welcoming the most perfect, beautiful little guy in the
world to me.
How the hospital bag checklist was born...
As a
lot of you know, I'm a planner. I love lists and having a plan. And
let me just say this, I get a little on edge when my plan doesn't
play out. But, I am trying to remember that giving birth is not
something that goes according to plan. However, I can make sure that
I have everything I need packed away and waiting by the door for when
I need it.
When I
started packing my hospital bag, I was kind of lost at what to pack.
My OBGYN had provided a small list of things to bring to the
hospital, but I knew that I needed more to be fully prepared. So, I
decided to sit down and really brainstorm about what I need to bring
along for this joyous adventure. That's how this printable was born.
Here's what I included in my checklist:
For Mom:
-Night gown
