If you went into labor and arrived at the hospital or birth center with absolutely nothing packed, it would not be the end of the world. Sure, your partner might need to make a quick trip to buy a car seat so you can bring your baby home, but you would survive. That said, having a well-packed birth bag can make your labor, birth, and postpartum experience much more comfortable. This episode guides you through exactly what to pack for yourself, your baby, and your partner, ensuring everyone is prepared. No need to take notes; you can download a free checklist to make the process easier.
