So what's in a bag?

Earlier this month I started my journey on Pinterest on what to pack in my hospital bag.  I know this is my 2nd pregnancy, but I barely remember what I packed in my bag with Lennon... probably because I packed it right after my water broke.  I do know I barely packed anything for ME!  And I'm important too god dammit... just not as cute as a new born babe.

So after searching, pinning, making my own lists, I finally decided what would be important on the big day.  Another big deciding factor was I found out that unless I have major complications (or an unplanned c-section), we'd only be in the hospital 24 hours after delivery.

Below is what I finally decided to pack in my hot pink VS bag.

1. Beauty Supplies (listed below)
2. 2 pairs of comfy socks
3. Grey sweat pants and black leggings
4. Make-Up bag (listed below)
5. 2 nursing tank tops
6. 3 pairs of panties I don't mind ruining
7. Breastfeeding Supplies

{Beauty Supplies}
Toothbrush//Shampoo & Conditioner//Deoderant//Body Lotion//Face Lotion//Gum//Body Wash//Toothpaste//Bobby Pins
(Not Pictured : Brush, Comb, Headband, Straightener)

{Make-Up Bag}
Tinted Lotion//Powder//Concealer//Blush//Luminizer//Blotting Paper//Eye shadow//Eyebrow Pencil//Eye Liner//2 Mascaras//Lipstick//Lip gloss
(Hey, Mommy's gotta look good for all the photo ops!)

{Nursing Essentials}
(4 Breast Pads//Lanolin//Nipple shield)

So that's all that's in my bag!  I plan on putting some snacks in there for Adrian and myself while I'm laboring (and for afterwards) and maybe my nursing pillow.  As well as a lightweight hoody and a button up flannel to wear home, OH and flip-flops!  I'm also going to be bringing my own pads, I don't know about you but I don't feel like I grew 4" while sitting from the huge ass hospital pads.  Also I'm nixing the oh-so-sexy mesh panties *rawr*
