Hospital Bag Packing List

It's that time again - time to pack the hospital bag!  I feel like I just did this for Hannah's birth.  Here we go again!

During our hospital tour we were told to pack two different bags - one for labor and delivery and then another for recovery. So I have separated my list into those two categories. After I have something packed in my bag, I will cross it off the list.

- Camera (digital and Flip), charger, cord for uploading pics, and extra batteries

- Hard candies (to keep my mouth from being too dry)
