Must-Have Items in a Childbirth Preparation Bag

9 Must-Have Items in a Childbirth Preparation Bag
Hello Mother, who is about to give birth, must start thinking about what needs to be prepared, be it for Mother or for her prospective baby grandma.
Well, this time RS Hermina will give tips for mothers in preparing childbirth supplies

Childbirth is a process that requires a lot of preparation. Especially if it is done in a health facility far from home. Preparation for childbirth is done at least three weeks before the HPL (the expected day of birth). Careful preparation will make the mother feel calmer during the labor process. So, what items should be prepared from home before undergoing the delivery process? Here is the list.

List of Luggage for Mom that Needs to be Prepared
Recognize the signs that your due date is approaching. In some mothers, they may experience false contractions, which are not a sign of real labour. Therefore, it is very important to prepare luggage in advance, so as not to rush. The following is a list of what to prepare for childbirth:

Identity cards such as ID cards or driving licenses. Also prepare an insurance card, and important documents, including routine pregnancy check-ups.
A large sarong, cloth, or skirt to facilitate movement when preparing for labor. This sarong or cloth is usually used when the amniotic fluid begins to break, to facilitate the delivery process.
Toiletries.
Sandals and socks.
A negligee or front button-up shirt, so that the process of loving can be easier.
Breastfeeding bra for 3 days, or more.
Stagen for 3 days, or more.
Panties for 3 days, or more.
Nasal pads as many as needed.
In addition to some items as mentioned, mothers can also bring any items that can be used to help relieve anxiety before the delivery process. For example, favorite pillows, speakers or headsets, books on childbirth preparation, snacks, and so on.

If your husband is not out of town, you should ask to be accompanied. The presence of a husband can help make the birth process easier. Holding your wife's hand and maintaining eye contact can be a way to comfort your wife in the midst of a painful delivery. It can also reduce the level of anxiety and pain experienced by the wife.

Luggage List for Newborns
After listing the mother's belongings before and after the delivery process, it is time to prepare for the little one. The following is a list of carry-on items for newborns:

Baby clothes for 3 days, or more.
Baby diapers for 3 days, or more.
Baby hat, so that the head is always warm.
Socks to keep feet warm.
Blanket to swaddle the baby.
Wet wipes for newborns.
Gloves so that the baby does not injure his own face.
Those are a number of birth preparation items that must be brought for the mother and also the little one. In order for the delivery process to be smoother, mothers are required to carry out routine checks at the nearest hospital in order to avoid things that are not desirable. If the mother and baby are in good health and away from disturbances, the delivery process can proceed as expected.
