What Was In My Hospital Bag | Front Roe by Louise Roe

As you guys may know, we recently welcomed our daughter Honor into the world last week! What to pack in my hospital bag – and when to pack it – was playing on my mind for a few weeks prior to her birth. They say you should pack your hospital bag by 34 weeks, just in case of any early arrivals. The average hospital stay for natural births is 2 days (longer if you have a C-section), so it’s important to bring some items that make it feel a little more like home. I spoke to a load of girlfriends who are mums, made my list, packed my bag (on the late side, having been sick over the holidays I only got around to doing it at week 38 – eek!). I packed it just in time, as Honor arrived a week early, with a super fast 4 hour labor that left us with no time to scramble things together! Today, I’m sharing everything that was my hospital bag for our little one’s big entrance into the world.
