Our hospital bag, and the one thing I forgot

Packed it twice, checked it three times, still missed the obvious.

I packed our hospital bag at week 34 and felt very organised about it. Snacks. A long phone charger. Two going-home outfits in different sizes, because nobody knows how big a newborn will be.

The thing I forgot was a towel for me. The hospital ones are thin. A soft towel from home would have been a small comfort on a very big day.

If you are packing yours now, add the towel. And pack the bag earlier than you think you need to.
