3 Things You Need in Your Birth Bag

We get this question all the time! What should I have in my birth bag? Here are our top 3 faves! 🫶

1. A comb! This is a great technique to assist you through contractions - distraction for your brain to help you through that peak!

2. Snacks! While we love when a mama gets to snack throughout her labor, having your favorite snacks on hand can be helpful for after labor as well! Depending on when baby is born, you may not have much to choose from!

3. Cooling Nipple Pads! The first few days of breastfeeding can cause some nipple tenderness (pain during feeding should NOT be a norm - reach out and chat with our CBC if you're experiencing this!). Medela and Lansinoh have great options for some sweet, cooling relief during those early days where both you and baby are learning how to breastfeed!

So much goes into preparing for the arrival of your little one. Let us help you prepare and take care of yourself, too! Contact us today for a free initial consultation - we are here for you!
