Watching this while am having a sleepless night... My back is aching and am waiting for my big miracle in 5 weeks time. Praying for all babies born during this Corona pandemic. God's going to protect us and our babies ❤️
Hang in there Mama 💕 Im only 30 weeks and the back aches have started so I am dreading the next 8 weeks since its probably just the start.

Mama Calabash
Amen.. May God protect us and the baby during this period
amen! 25 weeks and counting!

I found out I am pregnant on Saturday, 6 weeks on :) My partner and I were undergoing fertility treatment so it is a HUGE surprise :)
i'm 34 weeks 🙄 sooooo over being pregnant. and its my first pregnancy
kween x lolz I’m almost 33 weeks, it’s going too fast for me i don’t feel prepared. Having this baby after 14 years of trying, fertility treatments and spending thousands. I’m so grateful, but for me it’s just going too fast. I just don’t feel prepared 🤷🏻♀️, confused all over the place. And lazy as a slug lolz.
@@rahbid121 congratulations! 😢💗 i'm really happy for you. don't worry you'll figure everything out..i'm also not prepared 🤣 but i'm sure we'll do great 🤗🤗
kween x thank you so much🥰🥰. We’ll definitely do great! 💁🏻♀️🦹♀️. Hope everything goes well for you, you’ll be in my prayers 🤗🤗 xxx
Congratulations!
Found this really helpful. I'm a first time mom due December and very excited. I'm praying for my lil one and all the Moms and their little angels born during this corona pandemic.
I'm due December too first time mom I'm so exiceted to meet my little one😍😍😍
Same here 🙋🏻♀️ FTM due in December too. Wishing both of you safe and smooth delivery
Me too. Due December 7th. praying for you . God bless! -Deb :)
Ftm due December 10th. Good luck to all of you we’re almost there!!
Thank you likewise 🥰
Just used your list. I am now all packed and ready to go. I'm 32weeks so ready a bit early but I like to be organised 😊😊🤰
The change for the hospital car park, the most organised thing I have ever seen!! 😱
Ha ha check me out I learned from the other times xx
@@mrsemilynorris good
Never would have thought of that and making sure that the car has gas. Things no one ever includes in their videos but they will tell you the brand name of the 50 pillows they're putting in their Louis Vuitton 😂
We are lucky the hospitals near us don’t charge for parking 👍

My husband and I are excited, first pregnancy and due in July - I keep watching youtube videos of all sorts hey! Can't wait to hold our boy
Monicca Leseyane I am due in July also I’m having a baby girl
I’m due in July Aswell😍
The same here! I watch whatever I can watch😅❤ I am expecting for the first time, going to be a proud single mom and are duo to november 2020. A true birthday gift💖💖💖
Hey everyone, I’m also due in July as well!!! First time mom to a baby boy, I’m currently 32 weeks pregnant, my cervix is already shortening at 1.25cm and I’m currently on bed rest, rebuking preterm labor in the name of Jesus, Amen. Praying that everyone have a healthy baby and delivery with speedy recovery 🥰
Me too. July 2nd baby number 4 our only boy
Of all the “what’s in my hospital bag” that I watched, yours is my favorite. I am 34 weeks pregnant and starting to pack my hospital bag also..
When I started researching about Baby Information in general 3 months ago, I binged watched a lot of your videos Emily. My wife is now 39 weeks pregnant and we are super nervous and excited. Thank you so much for all your awesome videos! I really love how sweet you are, and your accent as well! Love all the videos with Matt!
Of all the what’s in my hospital bag videos. Your video is the best. Very simple not excessive and over packing like those videos out there. I’m using yours an example to I pack mine. Super helpful👍🏼
If you in another country I guess but in America all you need is an outfit for you to go home in and outfit for the baby to go home in and a car seat literally everything else is provided unless you want the baby in its own clothes instead of hospital onesies
Why didnt you move all your stuff to the hospital?

@@stefanynguyen66 compared to anna saccone for example this is a good bag
Being a student and pregnant is hard I pray that I'll make it to the end...my mum supports me though
Its definitely hard, because all we wanna do is sleep
Praying all goes well for you mama 💕
Hope you have a safe labour🤗
Your lucky, atleast she is there for you😘😘
Yes you will,I am there too
It has been a pleasure following you during this pregnancy. I am now 39weeks and 3days and just waiting for my princess to arrive. You are like the ONLY person that remembered to remind us about Gasoline for the car. Lol its definitely something we all need to do! Thank You for your many tips. God bless you and the family
I love watching this been stressing over little things my baby isnt due till october this year but love how much detail is in this video and explainations ect ... really great for a first time parent to be 🙌 making notes and taking tips thank you x
37 weeks pregnant and here we are lol. 3rd time round but it doesn't hurt to check for some stuff I might not know I need.
All the best to mommies to be.🤗
Can't wait to meet little man in a few weeks💪🏾
Have always packed light bags in my last two pregnancies and ended up spending 7 days in hospital. This time I'm packing my whole house. Hopefully it just be two days this time. Love your hospital bag.
I was so nervous and lost about what to pack. I feel super confident now after watching this. You're so organised. Thank you for all the tips and advice x
I am 37 weeks and 4 days, time is for sure getting away from me and this video was BEYOND helpful! I legit took notes like Im attending lecture lol but I could not think of 1 thing you could've missed THANK YOU ❤
You're the only person in which I can watch your full videos without getting board. Idk why lol just very capturing! Yore videos are very informative!
I'm 38 weeks pregnant and I just packed my bag and posted my "what's in my hospital bag" today too! (it's my second baby too so I learned a lot my first time!)love the gray and yellow blanket--so adorable!
Hi Emily, I first watched this about 3.5 years ago when I was pregnant with my first. It was the first video I ever saw on your channel and from there I was hooked! I’m now due my second baby in 2 months and I came back to it to refresh my memory. Just wanted to say thanks so much x
Thanks For the data.
I just sat with pen and paper and wrote a list of everything you mentioned so I don't forget anything! Thanks Emily x
I'm due in 9 days and this video was perfect!! I had to recheck my list and make sure I had everything and you helped me so much - especially since this is my first baby! Thank you beautiful! Xx
Best video I've seen thankyou, I'm due in 8 weeks with my first baby really wanting to get my bag organised other video's have really overwhelmed me with excess of things
So helpful. Thank you. 31 weeks today with our first little man and was very confused about the different clothing to take. This explains things so clearly. X
I have watched this when I was pregnant with my first boy and here I am back making sure I got everything for my second boys arrival :)
Thank you for the detailed video! Im on week 36 and want to get things organized for when bebé comes. Your videos have been super helpful and even more during the Corona times when we can't see many people!
Soon to be first time mom here. Super excited!!!! This video has been very helpful. Working on my hospital bag as I speak.
Great overview...straight to the point. I had to pack more because I was in and out of the hospital during my pregnancy. So yes, I was one of those people who packed the house due to the time I spent in the hospital.
The carry on luggage as a hospital bag is just genius!!! I thought packing two gym bags was cost effective but this makes so much more sense🙌🏼
I have to saved this video like 3 months ago so I wont forget important stuff that I need! This made my preparation for my hospital bag easy! Thank you so much! 7 weeks to go here! 😊😉👍
This is the first video of yours I watched, 2 years ago, expecting my 1st! And here I am again waiting on my 2nd....and a loyal follower!
My second baby due soon and I forgot all about ! Luckily I found you again !😂thank you. You helped me a lot in my first pregnancy. Living alone with my partner and no family around so UA-cam is my source. 🙏☺️❤️
This is the simplest and most practical list that I found so far without showing off any branded whatever things. The best! And you confirmed my idea about getting different sizes for baby.. Thank you so much!
On my 20th week now and trying to get ready a few things at a time - you never know when you get to rush over the hospital. 😉
I've been watching your videos for so long, I found out two days after Christmas that I'm pregnant with my fourth. Lost the other 3 sadly, but this one seems to be my miracle! Watching your videos now is giving me so much confidence! Thank you!
...all the best!
Oooh update? It's 5 years later. I wonder how it went from your post onwards
Hi Emily, I just saw this video and took note of all the things to put in my hospital bag!!!
Thank you so much for being so helpful with us mums!! You are a very positive inspiration!! Big love xxoo Leslye
Thank You! I wasn't sure about watching other mum's tips, but I've tried and thankfully I've found Your channel. It's my first pregnancy, I don't have any help (no siblings, my mom died few years ago) and I've found Your advices so useful! Thank You once again!
Hi! Ive watch alot of videos about your topic. And your the only one who really help me what to bring when Im ready for my labor. And the things you present is really reliable for new mommy like me. Thank you!
Love this video, I'm 36 weeks pregnant today!!! I sort of have my bag ready but don't and it's nowhere near as organised as yours, I'm going to get it done finished tonight you have given me a kick up the bum xxx
I'm here to thank you for the video, my baby is now 19 months only year ago I didn't have a clue what to do after I had a baby I was so scared and nervous I found your video and I felt a lot better to have your advice and some idea for what to bring and what not. Next year we're planning on having no2 hopefully I'm ready for everything again , thanks again from the bottom of my heart 😊
34 weeks today, so I’m getting prepared. He feels super low and I have a STRONG feeling he’s coming sooner than I think❤️😍
Small hair brush, dry shampoo...maybe extra throw for hubby or you...I find hospital blanket to thin...but everything else you packed is pretty spot on :) giving birth is such a amazing experience, which I wish people would embrace more
lizzyM7 Yes. I just realized i don't have a small brush for baby. Lol. I went to buy my dry shampoo and waste wrap last night.
Dry hair shampoo! Yes!
I was sweating so much after giving birth! Didn’t need more than the thin hospital blanket and I stayed naked underneath the whole time until we got ready the check out two days later! My husband said the postpartum room was freezing but I don’t recall being cold at all lol
During my first pregnancy I watched many pregnancy essential videos and took so much stuff to the hospital, only to find out that they provide you with literally everything in that suitcase here in Germany. I dint have to use a single thing I took for the baby until the day we brought him home. Also there were mesh underwears and heavy duty pads for the mothers. Except of course toiletries and phone chargers and pj's etc. But I still watch these videos cuz it's so organised and makes me calm 😊
Nimmy Wren yeah same here in USA as well
I'm a beginner mom and my baby will be born from the end of January to early February and I'm watching these so I can be prepared without over packing.
Same here! Goodluck ❣
Same here.....but a second time mom
Did you have the bb yet?
May they be healthy!
I’m glad I watched this - very helpful, thank you! I’ve been trying to think of a list for the hospital bag and it’s been quite overwhelming deciding what and how much etc. Your video is full of super tips, thanks again x
Such a helpful video, thank you! Due May 2020 and getting super excited about it.
Thanks for being so practical as well, I picked up a list from a baby shop last week and I was overwhelmed!
This has made me so excited to give birth! Of course I'm scared as hell too as it's my first but just made me think of holding him! Very useful video, thank you!
This is the best hospital bag video I've seen so far! I'm off to pack mine right now! Thank you ☺
I'm expecting my second baby and this video is incredibly helpful! I packed everything for the baby last time and completely forgot about packing things for myself to make my time easier!
Am 32 weeks pregnant and I can't wait to pack based on your list. The best video among all. Honestly it's much better and easier rather than take everything. Haha
I'm Due this December first time mom, I saved this video to watch again in 14 weeks lol. I love your video💞💞💕💕💕
Going on my 5th child, last one was in 2010. It feels new to me again! I love this video. Thank you 🖤 & thank you for reminding me to bring extra needs for the hubby lol They probably need it the most, its gana be C-Section delivery so, he'll be in for couple days.. 💞
First pregnant 22 weeks.....thanks for the info very helpful!!
Thank you for this video! I first watched it in 2018 preparing for my daughter's birth and now 2020 for my second baby.
I am a First Time Mom & I Love How Straightforward You Were Without Chatting Too Much. It Was VERY Helpful for me indeed. I have seen others that talked almost an hour and it gave me a migraine and you helped me without doing that much and I Appreciate it and I also love how organized you were & How You Minimized The Things to Put In The Bag Some People Pack As Though They Intend to Move In The Hospital & Its Overwhelming. Thanks alot For Not Being So Overbearing. ❤❤❤❤ #April2019
Cory White yesssss I love that about her. I also watch @fun in the sun. She’s SO very straight to the point as well
About patrol.. my stepmom actually felt so good during labour she drove herself to hospital, with my father as passenger, AND stopped at gas station, filled tank up, went to pay for the patrol and continued on, to give birth to my little brother :) And as calming as it seems to sound, even she thanked god for epidural later...
I’m back from three years ago because I need a refresher and couldn’t remember what to bring. I’m having a girl this time, I’m 36 weeks and nesting. I’m glad to be back because I love this video because it helped big time. 😆❤️🤗🥰
I'm super excited, it's my first pregnancy. Im also incredibly terrified, your videos are the only ones that don't scare me more.
This was the exact swift kick in the bum I needed to finally pack my hospital bag. So helpful and relieved I still have some time (35 weeks tomorrow) hopefully to order a few bits!
Wdsfff
Finally someone from the UK doing one of these! Thank you!!
She is amazing 🥰
It's so much stuff. In the US you don't have to bring half of this stuff but then they charge your insurance $35,000
Very good video! I think in most countries the maternity bag is the same. In Romania, some hospitals give you a list with what you should bring. It's mostly the same. For the mother: clothes for 3 days, undergarments (disposable ones if you can), brest pump (if you have one), cosmetics and hygene products (as you please). For the baby: clothes for 3 days, pampers, wet wipes, rash cream, shower gel.
I can tell you are a seasoned mum...to the point and what's needed.
I was definitely overthinking what I needed to pack because I’m a first time mom and my baby should arrive within 3 weeks but this video is definitely very helpful 💕
Wow.. Even am due in 20th April.. Am so scared.. Allah the best for your delivery
This is really comprehensive information, Em - I especially like the idea of packing a partner bag with snacks and things, and the exact change for the car park at the hospital. I would not have thought of that.
Ha ha thanks mom! I've learnt - becoming a pro now ha xx

Hello Beautiful Lady

Thank you so much Emily. Really appreciate this video. It is very practical, I took everything that you have shown for essential needs and have packed my Hospital bag ,ready to go now. I’m due in June so crossing fingers.
Thank you very much for this video! I’m on my 3rd pregnancy also...and because I had completely different experiences on my previous babies journey, I’m watching some videos to kind of confirm what I think it’s essential to bring to the hospital this time, and yours is the one close to what I believe is necessary. By the way I love your channel! God bless you and your beautiful family! 💗❤️🤗
I subscribed this channel after watching this video - parking change and normal luggage case for the hospital both amazingly practical and organised.
Applause 👏👏👏 for having the snuzzler ready in the car seat. Keeps small babies safe from bubbling around in the car seat.
Am due in three weeks and i just bought everything today. Am glad i just bought exactly what you have😁😁can't wait to meet my baby boy❤❤💚
Best video so far...well detailed and no excess packing, just the basics
Due in November, love watching these videos they help me feel and get more prepared 💙
Thanks a lot for this video; I struggled especially with the sizes of baby sleepsuites and since I also bought them from Next your tips helped a lot :) :)
Ii
I been lagging on packing my hospital bag but I found your video so helpful. Thank you for the great advice.
I really enjoyed this video. Im pregnant with my 2nd child and it was a great recap of what i REALLY need as opposed to what i could need. And the bits around my partner having stuff dor themselves, simple but genius! Thanks
I just recently tried the water wipes too and I really like them and the fact they have such minimal ingredients
I'm due in three weeks and realized I hadn't made a hospital bag. Great video, thank you for showing us a simple bag.
I have watched and loved all your videos since i found out i was pregnant in December! I loved that mustard and grey stripy blanket so much i ordered it from mama's and papas and it just arrived! I love it so much! I love your taste in clothes xx I'm due with my first baby on 2nd Sept, a little boy and I've found your videos so helpful and calming. 1 month to go and i can't wait! Xx keep up the amazing videos!
Love that you kept it simple and didn't overpack! (and love your socks!!) I'm on baby #3 too and feel like I will pack like a minimalist as well- mostly because the hospital I'm birthing at provides basically everything necessary for baby and mama! :)
That is amazing that they provide lots! Are you in America? Xx
I am- I know it's different in Europe. I lived in Europe for a few years and almost had my first there; we moved back when I was 7 mo. lol But living in Europe while I was pregnant really opened my eyes to wanting a more natural birth :) I feel like in Europe they don't force as many interventions -- at least in Italy where I lived.
Having my first baby in 33 days (a girl❤️) and I have nothing packed because everytime I think about i get so overwhelmed but your video made it so easy and I’m going to start our bags tomorrow
Good luck . You'll make it
hi Emily, first I wish you a smooth labor and delivery...second, for the maternity stay in September ! I had the same thought that hospitals usually hot for little ones but when I gave birth to my little girl it was so cold and the hospital didn't turn the heaters on cuz they have a central heating system that is programmed for specific dates !! it was freezing at night and my little lost so much weight cuz she was burning all the breast milk for heating and still was cold my poor little angel!...I didn't know back then cuz she is my first baby! but I just wanted you to know so you can check with your hospital about it !...sorry it's long comment, I hope you read it.. hugs and kisses
Watched this 2 years ago before I had my son and rewatching before I have my daughter lol thanks Emily xx
Thank you.... we did pack well because of you 😊
My baby boy born on 5th of this month 😊
thank you for taking 2 hours out of your day to make a 15 minute video. i guess i never realized how long it takes to do these
brenda bennett but, it's not two hours... it's one...
nemam. reci - Editing and uploading also takes time.
Love this! I filmed mine today as it's finally ready to go and I now want to add those lucozade tablets and some make up!
Eek so so exciting!
Ooh can't wait to see yours!! I love those tablets! Xx

I wanna say 'Thank you.. Thank you so much for this video. It has helped me alot in taking 'must- haves' with me and not regretting taking anything useless or unnecessary thing along with me. I have suggested the whole list you have mentioned to those who were doubtful on what to carry in their hospital bag. Thanks alot.
Great video. Just want to share that t shirts that go to the waist and button up pajama works great for umbilical cord care and quick diaper changes.
Very helpful video more so because you're also from the UK 😊 Thank you x
thank you for not packing your house. I see some other video and I'm shocked that they don't take there bed lol
Thank you for all the likes a comments. Two years later I just saw them 🥰
Koral Partaker THIS COMMENT IS MY LIFE 😂. As a nursing assitant in a maternity ward I HATE when people bring everything in their house but the kitchen sink...especially when they lay it all on the bed right after birthing it makes it hard to get around them and do the caring and monitoring we need to do.
lol
Lol so funny hun
Hahaha am laughing so hard
Koral Partaker It's absolutely nuts! They are packing for a dam vacation. I want to give birth & leave ASAP.
One of the most detailed videos I've seen! Thank you so much :)
Thanks it was the best bag packing idea... nothing unnecessary at all just the most important stuff
I`m packing my hospital bag tomorrow so excited X
Louise Huntingford
I have a grandson on the way...I know wat to do already but I have to sharpen up my memory I hadn't took care of a baby since 1998..😘😘😂😂
Watched this video as a first time mom from Jordan. As I have been searching youtube around for a practical and non exaggerating / scary list of what to pack, I want you to know how helpful and practical your list was. Although I did freak out on the heavy after birth bleeding and no idea if I will be having a natural birth ( hopefully ) or a c-section. four years into this video and it still applies. thanks
Hello Beautiful Lady
I bought everything from Next as well. The quality of their clothing is really good!!
I’m sure I watched this last time I was pregnant and I will be using your list again for January thanks for the info Emily xx
Hello Beautiful Lady
Nice profile picture when was it taken.
Thank you, very helpful.. Also wondering do you reckon both mother and baby will need bath towels to take or do hospitals provide with that?
I saw last time her video 4 years ago when I was expecting my 1st child , after 4 years still watching her video for the 2nd child. Love her video so much,
OMG this helped me so well, i just jotted this down so i've got it for when i do fall preggers, which i hope is very soon as i've always wanted to be a mum even tho i'm 19 years old, but i feel ready to become a mum/mom. thanks very helpfull, can't wait to see more Emily Norris.... xx
I have to say this is the best video I have seen, thank you.
