I cleaned them out of everything that wasn't screwed down.

They do give you a lot to take home though.

We were RIGHT across from the supplies - we swiped tons and tons of formula - TONS - and some undershirts, and a few receiving blankets... they gave us the rest of the dieprs in his cart and stuff like that - but I sent DH home everyday with a huge shopping back full of stuff!!!

Re: if you gave birth at Huntington hospital

Every time they brought the baby in the bassinet... I took a lot of the stuff on the cart. Then on the last day they told me to take everything from the bassinet/cart. I must have had about 30 diapers by the time we left and a load of A&D packages. I only took one receiving blanket as a momento...we have plenty of our own.

Re: if you gave birth at Huntington hospital

I too took everything from the cart everytime....especially the formula. Also, before you leave, ask the nurse if you can have some extra formula.

Also, don't be afraid to ask your pediatrician's office for formula when you go.
