I have my list from my last time. My hospital also provides all kinds of stuff for me and baby. Even hazelwitch pads! What I forgot last time was to have other items I needed at home ready to go. It is a little embarrassing for your mil to have to go pick up pads. Luckily, she didn't mind, but we should have had enough.

Here are my lists: (None of which i have packed yet. :P)
