Packing Your Hospital Bag

This is something you don’t want to wait until last minute to do. Packing your hospital bag is essential so that you don’t forget any last minute items. We typically recommend you have your bag packed a month and a half before your due date. Here are Xpecting’s top 6 must-haves:

Dear Johnnies hospital gowns will keep you look stylish while you are in the hospital.

tankblk

A good nursing tank is ideal for lounging, nursing, and to greet visitors. We offer them in multiple brands such as Bravado and GlamourMom. They both have a built in bra to make nursing easier for new moms.

If you’re planning on nursing, it is essential to find a good, supportive nursing bra. We offer custom fittings in the store to help you find your size. We carry multiple brands such as Bravado, Bella Materna, BelaBumBum, and Elle Macpherson.

Get cozy with a comfortable pair of Juliet Dream soft panel lounge pants. Pair it with a nursing top and cardigan for stylish comfort.

thnipplebutter

Don’t even think about leaving home without the Bella B Nipple Nuture. We recommend you start using this from day one of nursing to avoid dry or cracked nipples.

aamodswaddle

We are partial to these Aden + Anais swaddle blankets because they are so cute and multi-functional. Use them as a burp cloth, blanket, swaddle, sheet, and more.

A couple more things you will probably need are toothbrush, toothpaste, cozy slippers, camera, cell phone, and your baby’s coming home outfit. With these essentials packed and ready to go, you’ll be able to focus on the birth of your baby rather than worrying about what you forgot. In the case that you did forget something, we offer free delivery to Hoag Hospital in Newport Beach. Just give us a call and we will bring you anything you need from our store.
