Hospital bags

Need Advice

I am struggling so hard with what to pack in my hospital bag. I’m very clothing particular, so I don’t want to take any of my favorite comfy clothes because I’m afraid I’ll ruin them with blood/fluids. My hospital is great and provides a LOT of stuff for mom and baby. So all I can think to bring is my pillow, one of my favorite blankets that is a dark color so won’t show stains, snacks, and personal hygiene stuff.

For baby, an outfit in newborn and one in 0-3 months, my frozen colostrum. It’s tricky because again, my hospital has a giant list of everything they supply in the couple days we’re there.

What else should I be thinking about??
