Baby book?
Coming home outfit picked out?
Baby bag and mommy bag packed for the hospital?
pads for you for PP bleeding (I was SO not prepared for that when I had my 1st)
make sure camera battery is charged and if it's not packed, it's in a handy spot to grab quickly

I'm terrible at taking pictures too  

Also, remember phone chargers. And toiletries for when you shower at the hospital. Oh, and a towel, mine provided them but they were TINY!

arent some of the things they give you just HORRIBLE?! lol
i had totally planned to bring my own stuff i hated the hospitals things....i am also glad that im not the only one who was COMPLETELY unprepared for my own problems with my first. i was so unprepared i didn't even have nursing pads! it was terrible, i had no idea i would need them lol nor did i know that i was going to need feminine products...nobody told me anything as far as that for my first pregnancy....i guess they assumed i knew lol

That's how I was. I didn't even have "emergency" pads at home b/c I NEVER use them so we had to stop at Walmart on the way home to get them and some other "essentials" like yoga pants (since I didn't have any non-maternity pants without zippers and I had a c/s so I wanted NOTHING touching my scar if I could help it).

This time around I also might bring my own pillow since IDK how comfy the hospital ones will be (and they're kinda stingy on pillows) and also my comfort blanket (though I brought it to my other 2 deliveries). I'm actually going to PACK a bag this time since the last 2 times I didn't but we lived MUCH closer to the hospital then and I had family that was always coming and going.

What about a gift from baby to big brother? We weren't going to do that this time (and didn't when we went from 1 to 2) but after thinking about it, we decided that the baby should give each of the older kids a little something (probably a book for each of them since Lord knows both of them need more toys/stuffed animals like they need a hole in the head, LOL!)
