Re: Since it looks like..
Did you get that link I posted in your other thread for the hospital checklist? I pretty much go down that! The only thing that I might add is a personal pillow. Since I use a body pillow, I brought that with me. 
Bring something comfortable to wear home. Honestly, the last thing you may want to do is try to get "dressed-up." Or bring two outfits, because you never know...especially if you do end up having a c/s (the incision may hurt.) Yes, you'll need something "maternity" or stretchy.
How exciting!! Did you decide what you are going to do yet? We are getting closer and closer! 
Do you have numbers all packed for calling people?

Re: Since it looks like..
I packed some light snacks too - like peanuts and those pregnancy pops. Something to read for DH and my pillows. Other than that - I'm just packing some sweat suit outfits since I'm not sure what exactly I'll fit into after the kid comes out...

Re: Since it looks like..
Thought of one more important thing...
your own pads. The hospital ones are HUGE and uncomfy! Also, check if they give you the peri-pads (ice packs to use if you have a v-birth.)
BF? Lanisoh.
Name books incase you decide to change your mind last minute.

Can you repeat where the thread is?? My friend was looking for something like this. TIA.

One thing I did before Andrew was born was make a few meals (lasagana, ziti, meatloaf, etc.) and freeze them so the first few nights we were home, we didn't have to make dinner. We just took a tray out of the freezer and popped it in the oven.

Don't forget the baby book if you want them to stamp the little feet/hands when born
