What to bring to the hospital for the birth of twins

I know that when I was pregnant the burning question (especially when I was nesting) was “So what do I really need to bring to the hospital?” You can search online and you’ll notice there are tons of different lists, and most are geared towards Moms who are going to deliver one baby. So here’s a list especially designed for parents of multiples:
Depends, yeah those Depends. Seriously, I know it sounds crazy, but they work!
You will feel much more comfortable walking around with depends than those mesh undies and pads they give you.

I didn’t buy any nursing bras until a few weeks after we were home! Stick to camisoles at first because those babies are going to swell to massive proportions. I am a normal B, brought C-sized nursing bras and ended up making my husband go back twice for D and then finally just plain nursing camisoles. 🙂
And? Another hack for the c-section scar… turn a maxi pad so the non-sticky side is facing your wound. Use the waistband of your panties to hold it in place. I don’t know why, but this made me feel less like my guts were going to tumble out any minute.
I wanted my own pillow. The pillows at most hospitals are sketchy at best. But make sure to put a colored pillowcase on it so that your pillow doesn’t get mixed up with the hospital’s pillows. I would suggest an eye mask as well. Most hospital rooms don’t get very dark and if you are one to need a dark room, the eye mask will help.
