However, there was a time when things weren’t so clear, and we ourselves wondered-slash-googled-slash-asked-our-friends what to pack for the hospital. Therefore, having been done this a time or two (or three or four) before here’s what you actually need for the hospital.
Mom, you'll want these.
Perfect to wear to and fro.
Just trust us on this one.
