hospital stay must haves for mom!
as a mom of 3, this gown has helped me through 2 & almost 3 labors (currently 26 weeks & counting!) it was not an inconvenience for nurses because it has spot for wiring and/or tubing, complete coverage on the back side, and can even come und...
Delivery and Nursing Gown – Frida | The fuss stops here.
bring. a. fan! you can wrap this around the side of the bed & easily use it without it being in the way. giving birth is a lot an sometimes these hospitals are not the coolest.
Stroller Fan
i recommend to bring your own blanket because hospital blankets are NOT it. find a cozy one, that won’t keep you cold but won’t make you super hot during your stay.
Throw Blankets

Coconut Oil
hospital stays must haves for a new baby!
these are a must! it’s helpful for nurses to get in and out to help keep baby’s monitors properly intact. it’s also so helpful during those night time diaper changes!
Baby Zip Up Pajamas
copper pearl has hands down the best swaddles, in my opinion. i won’t use any other swaddle for my baby. they have the stretch and softness that other lack and i always felt my baby was secure and cozy in these swaddles. this is a must have.
Adorable Baby Swaddle Blankets for Sleep
i bottle + breast fed my baby and these were the only bottles i’ll use.
it depends on your baby’s latch on which one to get. my baby had a smaller mouth/latch so the standard bottles are what we use no that i am no longer breast feeding.
Balance + Standard Baby Bottles
these pacis!!!! i will recommend these always to moms who breast feed! this helped soothe my girl so much and became the only paci she’d take.
Lee Lee and Me
i swear by these burp cloths! texture is easy on baby’s skin, and covers a large area to catch any spit up or spills!
Burp Cloths
baby’s will usually come out with long, sharp fingernails and tend to keep their hands by their face so it’s easily scratched. i prefer these over tradition baby nail clippers!
Electric Nail Buffer
these are literally so cute to take photos with your new bundle of joy while they’re in the hospital bassinet!
i loved mine so much!
Wooden Announcement Signs
i LOVE these hats. they’re breathable & very soft material. they also stretch & the tie is able to come untied and make the hat bigger or smaller for your baby!
