Lori Bregman is a doula for many celebrities including Kristen Bell and she has created a list for pregnant women on what they need to pack in their hospital bag.
She is the author of The Mindful Mom to Be and says you should have everything ready for the hospital a month before your due date.
Her list for what to include is quite lengthy and involves a lot of things that she says will turn your birthing room into a more relaxing place.
Bregman told US Weekly that she suggests flameless candles to create ‘soft, relaxing lighting’ because it will make women in labour feel more calm. She also suggests facial mist to help when you’re hot and sweaty in the hospital. There is also an electrc aromatherapy diffuser on her list and skin nourishing oil. The celebrity doula told the US publication that she recommends packing a delivery outfit – something like a kaftan – as well as grip socks because hospital floors are cold and slippery.
