My youngest are 2, but they may as well be 12... The first couple of weeks were such a blur!

I supplemented with all kids, so formula.
Otherwise, that's it.
Maybe baby tub (though sponge baths work too)

Do you have bottles on hand in case you need them?

Baby detergent, bottle wash and brush (for pump parts - I need to pump just for relief!) and shampoo.

I know you have diapers and wipes listed, but also a&d and rash cream.

Thank you all!!
I definitely need a few more things after reading your suggestions! Where did you get your nursing bras and tanks? I bought Medela ones last time but I'm wondering if there are better ones. I didn't buy any bottles... I figured IF I need them, I can send my husband out. I just didn't want to have a problem returning them if I didn't use them.

Thought of something else! Changing pad, cover, water proof pads (if you plan on using some sort of changing pad of course!)
