Hi girls I couldnt post this big message as one post so i had to break into two parts .
so heres the second part.
For Mother:-
Nursing bras 2 to 3
Some feeding nighties
(in India u get beautiful feeding nighties. I picked up few for me this time when I came there)
Comb/ hairbrush
(brush is better cos comb hurts as body is so sore and tired after delivery I prefer hairbrush)
5 to 6 loose panties
Sanitary napkins
Small hand towels
Wet Wipes / Handkerchiefs / or soft face towels.
Easy slip-ons or nice cute looking Hawaii chappals (so that u don’t get worried using then in the hosp bathrooms).
Any Moisturizer or Vaseline
Lip cream cos ur lips usually chap.
An ointment or vaseline for nipple soarness cos many times when u feed the first time u tend to hurt the nipples.
a soap, toothpaste, toothbrush, and keep extra hairbands/rubber bands cos I remember for my first delivery I had a tough time without a hair band during the labor and finally the nurse had to tie my hair with a cloth.
Talcum Powder (very imp)
Deodorant or eau de cologne (Very Imp, We need to smell good. But buy very mild ones)
Make up is not required. But if anyone wants can carry can carry. I feel that a new mom looks beautiful anyways. So I won’t be carrying any.
Keep lotsa plastic / trash bags. Cos when u return from the hosp. u’ll definitely need a lot of then.
For time being this is all I remember. If I had missed out on anything do let me know.
I will also add any if I remember later on.
So enjoy packing ur bags.
