When I was pregnant with my son, I had absolutely no idea what to pack for the hospital! To be honest, I cannot even recall if I actually had a bag packed at all (though I must have, as I do remember wearing my own nightgown after my little man was born). I was completely and totally unprepared! The second time around, you'd think I would have a better idea...but every time I found myself thinking about what to pack in the hospital bag, I still found myself at a loss...not to mention would get distracted thinking about the more important and stressful issue of what to do about my son during our hospital stay! Thankfully, Small Batch Studio came to my rescue with their genius product- the Push Pack!



The Push Pack is a prepacked hospital bag filled with everything mom wants and needs during the hospital stay! Basically the idea is that the only thing mom needs to pack herself is personal items such as clothing, phone chargers, camera, etc. It takes all the guesswork out of packing for the hospital! From snacks to personal hygiene to entertainment...it has everything pretty well covered. Here's a look at what is included:




  • Lather® shampoo, conditioner, body wash, lotion, facial soap
  • loofah 
  • Kiss My Face shaving cream & razor  
  • Crystal deodorant wipes
  • comb & hair band
  • Earth Mama Angel Baby® lip balm & bottom balm
  • Tom’s of Maine toothpaste & toothbrush
  • breast pads
  • maxi pads
  • disposable underwear
  • nail file
  • playing cards
  • Motherlove Organic Nipple Cream®
  • notepad, thank you cards & pen 
  • gum
  • lollypop
  • snacks
  • Daddy Scrubs sticker & $10 gift card.
Some of these items I'm sure I would have thought to pack myself- most of the personal hygiene products for instance...but then again, I'm fairly certain that with my son I actually did forget to pack a hairbrush...and possibly even toothbrush too! (Things I was still actively using up until the point we left.) I also never would have thought to take a notepad or thank you cards- and even if I had would probably have forgotten the pen anyway! Not that there is much downtime in the hospital, BUT if there is, you can use these to keep track of gifts that come in and work on the thank you cards then! Or you can make note of anything you might want to remember...with all the excitement of the new baby, I know parts of our stay were a blur for sure! With the Push Pack, I really don't have to worry about missing anything- I simply toss it into my bag with a few other things (my clothes, hospital gown, Daddy Scrubs, camera and phone charger) and I am ready to go! (Though I'll be honest, I will likely pack some extra nursing pads aside from the one set included.) So easy, and so much less stress on this mama!! I only wish I had had this when I gave birth to my son as well!



The Push Pack is an ideal gift for ANY mom to be- from the first time mom who has no idea what she may or may not need, to the busy mom who simply doesn't have time to spend packing, to the moms like myself who are just stressed and/or forgetful... EVERY mom will appreciate the thought given to make her life a little easier and help her to feel more prepared! There is truly no better gift for a stressed mama than peace of mind! Now that I have my Push Pack packing for the hospital is no longer weighing on my mind and I can focus my attention to more important things- like making sure my little man is taken care of during our hospital stay!

And if you're feeling a little fancier- they also offer the Princess Push Pack! You can check out both options and connect with Push Pack at the links below:

  6. Selfishly, this would be for me :-). Baby is due in 5 weeks. Right now, I have two special things on my "must have" list for the hospital bag. One is a photo of my great-great-grandma, my great-grandma, my grandma, my mom, and me - to remind myself that I come from a line of strong women and I can do this (deliver naturally)! The other is an addressed envelope so I can send a photo to my gran ASAP (she doesn't have a computer or a smart phone).
