The Babble Review: Labor Kit
With my first baby, I read the
books and had a bag halfway packed two months before my due date. Of course she
came early and my favorite sweat pants and socks were in the dirty clothes; I
had already taken out the gum and mints because I was too lazy (and waddly) to
go the store when I ran out; and all the other things I meant to get to . . . I
just didn’t.
For the unorganized like me, this all in one Labor Kit, starting at $39.95,
would have been a fantastic shower gift, even if I poked fun of its type-A
personality. The kit puts everything in one compact bag with a handle you can
grab as you’re flying out of the house on your way to the hospital. Included in the
Standard bag of wonders: Pillow Paws socks with no-slip grip, stay-dry ice
pack, Kiss My Face lip balm, maxi-pads, peri bottle, stress ball for squeezing,
bassinet and/or hospital bed liners, nursing pads and Lansinoh nipple cream,
thank you cards, Pampers Swaddlers, notebook and pen, birth plan and baby stat
blank documents, those awesome mesh undies you
