New Mama Questions - 3rd Edition

Hospital Bag

My hospital bag is pretty much packed, but I have a few questions before I'm confident that it is finalized... So this week my questions are all about the hospital bag.

1. What do you wish you wouldn't have packed? 
2. What was the best thing (most used) you packed? 
3. Did you get dressed in your own clothes after you delivered or did you wear the hospital gown? If you wore your own clothes, did you wear pants or pack a gown of your own? 

I can't decide if I want to wear the hospital gown while having visitors but I can't seem to find a reasonably priced nursing gown that is in a good color (so it won't be too stained or anything afterward). I was told I can wear pants but I will probably be slipping them off quite often so the nurses can check my bottom....Don't know what to do!

Thanks Mamas!

New Mama Questions - 2nd Edition

This week I'm focusing on ONE question for all you mamas. With the news that my placenta is still low lying, I'm starting to think more about c-sections. 

1. If you had a c-section, what was your experience? How long was the recovery time? What were the pros and the cons? 

Okay, so I guess that was more like 3 questions, but all about ONE topic - c-sections. 

THANKS MAMAS!

New Mama Questions...1st Edition

Hubby and I had our FIRST prenatal class over the weekend - Newborn Care and Breastfeeding. 

It was interesting, but a lot of the newborn care was nothing new, but still fun and a good refresher. I do have a few questions for all you mamas and mamas to be out there. 

1. What kind of thermometer did you/do you keep on hand? Just a regular one for under the arm/for using rectally? or did you get a forehead or ear thermometer? 
2. Since it is not safe to swaddle with regular loose blankets for sleeping, how many swaddlers did you/do you have? 
3. What is your best advice when it comes to breastfeeding? 

Thanks mamas!!
