When you are preparing for the big day, you need to keep yourself in mind as well as the new baby. You can prepare care items for the new infant, but preparing care items for the new mom is important as well. You will want to make sure you have a lot of care items to care for yourself in the hospital. Make sure that you have pads and you can even get pads that offer cooling comfort. Witch hazel can help to heal your nether regions, and coconut oil scrub to help deal with those new stretch marks, just to name a few.

Key Takeaways:

• A great postpartum care kit should include overnight pads, instant ice maxi pads and absorbent underwear.
• A weighted sleep mask will help her get to sleep faster and a coconut coffee scrub will help her reduce stretch marks.
• When it comes to breastfeeding, make sure the mother has nipple cream, nursing pads and an insulated water bottle.
