Girls, at our maternity hospital, they provide swaddling blankets for the baby. However, during my last delivery, I was told I could bring clothes instead. I didn't want to bother my husband, so I didn't. My question is: how much clothing did you bring, and what kind? I want to prepare some this time, but I’m not sure how it will go once I get there.

Bring at least 1-2 sets of clothing for your baby, such as bodysuits, onesies, a hat, and socks, preferably made from natural fabrics. If possible, bring a few extra items to change as needed. Don't overpack, as the hospital usually provides some clothing for changing. The most important thing is comfort and practicality.

I took it, but I still covered it with plastic wrap. Clothing during pregnancy isn't very convenient.

Брала одежду. Слип 2 штучки. Боди и штанишки без носков которые. Носочки отдельно тоже 3 пары.

I packed a set for each day of my stay. Five bodysuits, five pairs of lightweight pants, and five pairs of socks. I was planning to stay at least five days, but I only stayed two, and the sets were just enough for that.

I took a few slips and socks, but most often, they gave me a lot of swaddles.

It's not very convenient to take clothing with me because of the frequent check-ups, and it can be uncomfortable to put on and take off repeatedly.

I planned for one set to last five days, and I also prepared enough at home for another five days. If needed, my husband could have brought more. However, I was discharged both times after three days.

We had some clothes, but we didn't end up using them because the baby was lying under the lamp naked due to jaundice.

I bought both times. For my daughter, I got 2-3 bodysuits and some socks (which kept slipping off her heels, so not the best idea 😂). I also got one pair of pants or leggings. A muslin swaddle blanket to cover her (July–August, hot weather). A couple of sleepers. For my son, I bought 2 sleepers, a set of bodysuit and pants, and some socks, at the end of October.

We always bring everything we need, including a daily outfit set for each day, a hat, socks, and three thick and thin swaddle blankets.

I took both times. Everything in threes: three bodysuits, three undershirts, three pairs of socks, three pairs of pants. One set is for giving away as new clothes for children in need. The nurses ask us about this.

It's better to bring only the sleepers; we wore only them for all five days. Other clothes weren't needed. The swaddles kept reminding us to save, even though I paid for them. You really can't go wrong with just the sleepers. There was also a beautiful sleeper for the discharge day.

After talking with those who recently gave birth, I decided not to bring any clothes. 😁 They advised me not to stress myself or the baby, since it's hot and there will be various procedures. 🙈
