Mommy and Daddy need to BOTH be prepared with an overnight hospital bag. But also remember that you aren't typically staying longer than 2-3 days. But remember the essentials to make sure that you are comfortable and prepared. Here is a short essentials list for the parents-to-be:
1. insurance card
2. birthing plan
3. iPod with 3 playlists (meditation, motivation, push-it)
4. water bottle with straw
5. baby arrival call list
6. personal pj/robe/warm socks/house shoes
7. going home clothes
8. hygiene personals
9. baby's first coming home outfit
10. car seat
