Empowering mothers worldwide through connection, support, and shared experiences ✨
Whether you receive a hospital kit varies entirely by birthing facility - some give nothing or just a onesie, while others provide a free bundle with swaddles, clothing, nappies and samples at no extra cost.
Expecting parents wonder what to pack versus what the hospital will provide. The community's honest answer is that it depends entirely on the facility - some give generous free kits, others almost nothing - so it's wise not to count on one and to bring your own essentials just in case.
Here's what moms in our community shared based on their own experience.
No kit was given; they just gave a onesie.
I got one free at my facility - a swaddle, nursing apron, and a cotton bag to carry baby items; it depends on your birthing facility.
I got a free gift kit: a t-shirt-pajama set, bib, small towel, dry sheet, 2 nappies, swaddle, a small Galact granules sample, 2 diapers, 2 breast pads, and baby soap.
