What to pack in your hospital bag - Round 2

here is what to pack in your hospital bag, second baby edition…in a global pandemic.

HospitalBagRound2

I learned a lot from my first experience of packing for myself & baby for the hospital.
Biggest thing i learned was, I over pack and I assumed I would be like Duchess Kate and walk out of that hospital 6 sizes smaller than I entered, and on a runway for paparazzi.

Fun fact, I am not duchess Kate I still looked about 6/7 months pregnant and no one cares.

HARD LESSON LEARNED.

All jokes aside of course, I brought about 3 bags JUST FOR ME AND MY SON to the hospital. Its laughable now, but I truly thought I would be changing into different clothes to sleep in, walk around in and come home in. When in reality, I stayed in a hospital gown for the majority of my stay and my diaper I left the hospital in showed through my tight leggings.

There are very few things you actually need in the hospital, so here is what I packed for Baby #2 - Pandemic Style.
