    Rachna,
    So far I don't know my baby weight. Will get to know on march 21(33 week) . Try to eat sporouts, health mix, fruits, channa(which increase weight). Eat nuts whenever you can,yogurt,protein bars . Don't worry.

    Yes,
    Yes doctor told me that baby size is lil big than normal. Coz i m having gastational diabetes. Though i m not taking any medicine. Doctor suggest me to do excercise n eat healthy.
    I have already packed hospital bag coz last time also i had premature delivery. So its better to be ready in advance.

    Hello ladies,

    hope everything is going great! :) third trimester feels the longest, esp the last few weeks....

    Rachna- my due date is Apr 22nd, but I have scheduled C sec on 25th April because my OB/GYN is not in the city and she is OK with me waiting for couple of more days...this is the plan unless I go in spontaneous labor...

    deepthivinayak- here in US too, you just need to pack a couple of your nightgowns, inners (maternity bra and loose undies), in hospital they gave us everything -unlimited supplies of net undies (c section), pads, newborn baby wrapping blankets, newborn first fress, newborn diapers i dont remember how many they provided, formula milk bottles (unlimited) in case you dont produce milk immediately or have issues latching etc, they even let you rent the breast pump..
    for my own needs I took a lot of stuff last time but this time I am planing to take:

    2 nightgowns with summer pants (I feel cold in legs at 72 home internal temp, which is generally the recovery room temp is), 3 pairs of socks, 2 or 3 pads, self grooming supplies (hair comb, eye kohl, light color lip color, travel size moisturizer, shampoo etc and basic stuff like toothbrush, paste, handsoap)

    for baby: 1st dress, 5 pack of onsies and 3 pants, 3 swaddle blankets, my own breast pump (mostly i wont need it), 1 home coming outfit for baby..

    we need infant car seat , else hospital wont "release" the baby to us :)..make sure you have sun visors in your car for comfy trip to home for newborn

    to ladies who are scheduling C sections (repeat or first timer), are you moms planning to have it schedules around a good C sec muhurat timings? if so, can we discuss some good days and timings..so we can try scheduling it around that time, mostly here in US, hospitals have slots and then the on call doctor has to agree for our desired time, it should not be too early or late in evenings, despite, its not a guarantee that it will happen in that time-frame keeping in mind uncertainties associated with it...

    @Meet9 ,
    Thanks.
    I purchased receiving blanket(which I came to know from YouTube videos), I am going to order onesies ,socks and washcloth(to use for baby in home) today. This weekend I will order stroller and car seat, pack n play. Also I saw a infinity scarf in Amazon which is helpful for breastfeeding in public(my co sister use it).
    In my last doctor visit, doctor said she may try for normal else c section(my first one is c section) . She will decide on my 37 week checkup.
    Few doubts,
    1. Do I have to buy diaper and pack in hospital bag.?
    2. Should I get hat n socks for baby (my place is still cold)?
    3. Should I buy grooming kit for baby to use in hospital?
    4. Where did u buy individual pants for baby?

    1. yes its better to pack 10-12 newborn diapers just in case..
    2. 2 pairs of hat and socks should suffice..
    3. no grooming kit is not needed for newborn....but before you head for delivery, buy the safety first kit (it has nose blob tooth brush hari comb etc) for home..
    4. Carters (you can get it from amazon)

    Hi,
    It's been long gap between first kid n second. So I confused what to buy and what not to stock. Lots of things coming to mind and I am getting confused. What to pack for hospital(meet9 u cleared it), how to bath baby if I have c section, what type of body wash,diaper rash cream ,body cream should I buy? What things should I buy before bringing baby home( as we can't go shopping immediately after delivery). I am worried .
