Hi! I'm Caitlin, wife of James and mama of Maxwell. I am a proud USCG wife, former ballerina, photographer, and retail manager. Being a working mom isn't easy, and this blog gets {seriously} neglected now and then {most of the time}, but I keep up with it when I can.

The bags are packed

Last night was a night of cleaning like a mad woman nesting.  I finished packing my bag and Maxwell's bag for the hospital.  I'm not going to take pictures of what's inside, because really it's just my boring clothes.  LOL.  But, I know some of you wanted to know what I have packed, so here's the list.
  • 2 Nursing gowns (because I've been told gowns make it easier for the nurses to "check" you)
  • 1 Pair of nursing pajamas
  • A few nursing tanks
  • Yoga pants
  • A few pairs of OLD underwear (in case I don't want to wear the lovely mesh panties the hospital provides)
  • Postpartum support shapers in 2 sizes
  • Fuzzy socks and slippers
  • Bathrobe
  • Travel size shampoo, conditioner, & body wash
  • Clarisonic
  • Toothbrushes & toothpaste 
  • Essential makeup & skincare (we're talking foundation, lip balm, & mascara, that's it)
  • A hairbrush & elastic bands
  • My camera
That's just the stuff for me after the birth, if anyone can think of anything else I might want, feel free to chime in.  I just need to pack a few things for labor and an outfit to go home in.  And James still needs to pack a bag for himself.
  • Ipod & headphones (for my hypnobirthing tracks)
  • Light snacks and gatorade

    Clarisonic is a must! I'm really glad that has been working for you.

    I really want to know about your Hypnobirthing classes and what outfit little Max will be coming home in. What a little rockstar he will be. :)

    Is the carseat already in your car?
