If you’re looking for a guide on what to expect while you’re pregnant – the search is over. Hands down Vicki Iovine’s book “The Girlfriends Guide to Pregnancy” is the funniest, most honest book I have ever seen. She’ll tell you what happens to your body, the many moods of pregnancy and even how to have sex while pregnant – Vicky cover it all!
When asked what to take to the hospital she provided the following list. While this is just a checklist of sorts to help you along the way, we strongly encourage you to check out her book for some of the reasoning behind some of these unusual items.
- Luggage
- Your Going Home Outfit
- Shampoos, Soaps & Lotions ( You deserve to feel & look beautiful!)
- Pillow, or Two
- Bedroom Slippers
- Lots of Socks
- Maternity Underwear
- Lip Balm
- Pen & Paper
- Food
- Book
- Sanitary Pads
- Nursing Bra
- Nursing Book
- Camera & Film
- Telephone List
- A Girlfriend..
She also instructed what not to bring to the Hospital
- A Nightgown (Unless you want to ruin it)
- Jewelry
