Started packing hospital bag. what am i missing?

I know its early but I like to be prepared. DH and I take frequent trips from NC to NY (10 hour drive) and just in case, as it gets closer I'd like to keep my hospital bag in the car.

So far I have:
-comfy robe
-slippers
-6 pairs of big, cheap underwear
-several pairs of socks
-travel size shampoo, conditioner, body wash, toothpaste, lotion
-toothbrush
-magazines to read
-comfy pair of sweatpants
-small duffel bag for baby (with coming home outfit and blanket)

I know I still need a shirt to come home in and the video camera and charged battery. What else do you think I'll need?

Re: Started packing hospital bag. what am i missing?

flip flops ( I used them when I took a shower)
cell phone charger
pajamas

Re: Started packing hospital bag. what am i missing?

I agree with flip flops. The nurse on our hospital tour recommended them for the shower.

Definitely phone and camera chargers.

Music if you want for labor.

Re: Started packing hospital bag. what am i missing?

yup. flip flops like the others said
ipod
camera
phone
video camera
all your insurance stuff
towel
chapstick (they say you get dry mouth since you can't eat till after the baby is born and all that breathing)
lollipops
snacks for you later and DH
anything for DH like deoderant, change of clothes if you're in labor for a while
wipes if you don't wind up showering you want to feel fresh

cell phone, cell phone charger
ipod
focal pic
hard candies to suck on
hair dryer
boppy


You will not be that long. My hospital had towels, shampoo, lotion, toothpate,TV, etc... You will be soooo tired, have visitors and so into your new little
that not much else will matter.
