Before I had my first baby, I packed my bag for the hospital with all sorts of handy things: tennis balls for my husband to roll around on my back, the cutest nursing nightgown I could find, and a box of nursing pads. Reality: I didn't want my husband to touch me, the slits on the gown were too small for my new double D's, and my milk didn't even come in until I got home. Yep, labor hindsight is 20/20 -- and I'm here to share! This is all the info I picked up from giving birth to three babies, as well as what other moms, obstetricians, and labor nurses suggest for making the hospital visit as pleasant as it can be.
